The only thing against is just so many matches. We need the injured back and flying in April.

I would had played another team because we still have an important league game at Brighton.
Knocking them out will give them extra motivation when we play them in the league.

Doesn’t really matter who we get in the scheme of things. Wolves, Watford and Brighton are all of a similar ilk. And when all is said and done a one off cup semi final at Wembley means all sides will be bang up for it and anything can happen. We saw that yesterday.

I’d be disappointed not to win against any of those sides to be honest, but this deep into the season the fixtures before and after the games may dictate team rotation and selection.

So , now looking at the City website i see we are at Spuds on the 9th Tuesday. So the Beeb have to give us either Friday night or Saturday at Wemberley . Good for the fans to have a night out in London , a week after Brexit. It should be empty of all those tourists, who can't get visas :-)

A week after brexit?
You're surely having a laugh there.
Mind you, being in London, there'll be some cabaret on at Westminster, probably TM's 7th "meaningful vote!"

29th of this month isn't it ? . You just know , someone at Whitehall will forget to send the three month extension letter to Brussels, or put second class postage on it- meaning it won't get there for at least two years.

Made me laugh, that second class post bit. That'd be typical tory behaviour.

It'll definitely be played Saturday, probably a 5 or 5.30 KO after the prem games that day. We won't play Sunday then Tuesday. With Brighton going through, it means Spurs won't have a game that weekend, so they will have a break before they play us.

I'd definitely not recommend getting a coach. You're not allowed beer on most of them and it's about 6 hours journey back!

Taxi straight into Camden Town from Euston , 1st class upgrade on Virgin Trains about £15 way to go . Taxi from Camden to Wembley , it’s the getting back a real problem it seems with this one . Might have to fly back fuck 5 hours on a coach pissed up !
