That's ok, we generally do well against Norwich apart from the game after Mancini was sacked.

Spurs v Leicester looks like the pick of them based on current form and Big Sam might fancy his chances at the Arse if he doesn't play his reserves.

wtf ? why ? Sergio was on a roll against them.

The only thing that is shit about this draw is that it is away from home.


Ok, it's fucking miles away and takes forever to get there. It's hardly a thriller. And there is nothing easy about it. It couldn't be much worse.


Wait until they announce it as the midday kick-off for TV on Saturday, or the 6 pm Sunday game

Fair point, i pity those that have to go by train!

Last season i took a truly laughable , slow train trip from Manc, to watch a game in Wigan. I think the train was powered by a two-stroke motor .

Funnily enough that is possibly the foreseeable future of local trains. Refurbished underground stock literally powered by two Ford Transit engines.

He doesn't often get the chance, does he?

I hate to say this, but I think phips might be right.

Would he really start a weakened squad? I think he feels a lot of pressure to win at least one trophy this season.

It's a strange one. Putting all bias aside they are showing those raggy red fuckers at home to a 3rd tier side whilst ignoring the mighty blues away in an all Prem clash. Wtf?

Not sure how its done over their. But over here its based on what teams bring in higher ratings. The more people that watch the game the more you can charge for advertising. I use to work in advertising and purchased commercial time from networks.
