It's a Proper Derby

[Craig B]

Brilliant draw! Shame we lose Toure and Adebayor for both legs but surely we have the players to replace them now!

IT WILL BE US AND VILLA IN THE FINAL.

I agree with Carl. We don't fear them. They only beat us at their place when we played shit and the referee helped them. We'll take a 2-0 lead to the swamp. They'll have a full team out without a doubt, whiskey-nose will not want to get put out of any cup by 'iccle ciddy'.

I wanted a Derby final.

Not too chuffed about it myself, If we'd been away first then yes, I'd be confident, but with how much help they get from referees etc if we go into the swamp game 2-0 up, that game won't blow for full time until its 2-2 or 3-2 to them.
I'd be confident that if it was at the swamp 1st leg, bacon would play his kids and given us an easy ride at COMS, but this is obvious to see what will happen.

He'll be putting out a lot more of the established players than he did against spurs. He will put out the kids who really shined like Gibson and Welbeck but maybe only one other. A team full of kids will not be able to cope with the atmosphere at COMS no way. I CANNOT WAIT FOR THIS GAME
