The Capital One Cup

[floyd__streete]

What an AWFUL draw.

Wanted a fun trip somewhere low down the ladder where we have either not been to before or for a long while. We get one of 4 Championship sides we could have got out of a potential 26 opponents, a side which easily turned over our first team not so long back and who will presumably similarly turn over our reserves with comfort this time around. Stinker of a draw, which also pits us against a side we have played loads of times in this competition before in any case.

In the words of Barry Fry: "I f*cking hate cup competitions"

Cambridge, but I'm not sure what league Cambridge are in

Don't you live in Cambridge? I am surprised for someone who devotes so much time discussing football you are so ignorant about the club on your doorstep . Sure, Reading are 'your' team but if I moved away as far as you have I think I'd show a little more interest in the local team's fortunes .

Noted re: Norwich away. If I see you there I will actually batter you, given the jinx-factor of spotting/talking to you at away games.

You really like football in general. I only have a passing interest in football outside of supporting Reading. I've been to a Cambridge Utd game. It was fecking terrible. I think they're conference, but they could have got promoted without me noticing.

If you see me at Norwich, you're welcome to try and batter me. But I know you're just a foghorn voiced softy really so I reckon if I offer to buy you a beer you'll forget all about it.

good chance to get a cup run going this year

Well we've already got to the second round, so we're doing better than last year!

There you go, all those doubters about the wisdom of the take-over - progress already!!

Pretty much this. He's threatened to batter me more than once but has been subdued at the prospect of receiving a free drink, the alcoholic c*nt that he is.

Now THAT is willful ignorance. Cheers.

I can't book my ST seat. It's got a nice big R over it and no option to book it.
