Love the fact that the Rags are the only Premier League game of the day (and against Hull) - it's like everyone else is going out to a party, but they're not invited.

There are two for me. Reading and Burnley. Spuds and Leeds.

I went for the Spurs v Leeds game, i think they will have the belief to go there for a win after knocking the rags out of the cup in the last round and plus id love to see Spurs out of the cup.

I can see there being a couple of shocks today. Hopefully some of the big name teams go out and if we beat Scunny tomorrow that makes life easier for us.

Preston vs Chelsea first on itv 1

Yeah, beat Scunny would definitely make things easier for us - good work Lewis.

How about Kasper and Notts County at home against the unpredictable Wigan. That's my tip.

Watching chavski, and sturridge has done nothing to prove he is anything other than a championship standard striker.

Preston all but given up now.
Sometimes we're good and sometimes we're bad but when we're good, at least we're much better than we used to be and when we are bad we're just as bad as we always used to be, so that's got to be good hasn't it?

Geovanni should do us a favour and do a ke*ne-esque tackle on R**ney.

Rooney's already on a yellow. If he gets sent off, does he miss our game or do suspensions not carry over to the league cup from the premier league?

Seems the barrel-chested, back-end-of-a-dog faced scouse git scored four and will be bang in form on Wednesday.

We're gonna rally have to be on our mettle. Hopefully we'll turn it on tomorrow and get in the mood, can't afford injuries tho with our other lads (bridge,lescott etc) just coming back.

I reckon Leeds are capable of another upset. Despite defending back against the wall, they look deadly on the break.
Sometimes we're good and sometimes we're bad but when we're good, at least we're much better than we used to be and when we are bad we're just as bad as we always used to be, so that's got to be good hasn't it?
