League Cup Round 3 - Who do we want?

by royalp-we » 24 Aug 2016 21:40

Can't see a thread already; so who do we want?

Personally I'd like Man Utd as would draw a decent crowd and would be fitting for Stam.

Draw is in around 30-45mins time.

Ball 22

One of the big teams at home would guaranty TV coverage...West Ham at there new stadium would be fun as well. If not away to Northampton or Gillingham for a bit of nostalgia. :D

Let's get Accrington after they knock Burnley out on penalties, then we can play Fosu and they can give him a polite round of applause.

Stuff dreams are made of.

Would be like that home game with Preston all those years ago on a cold and rainy Saturday afternoon when only 1850 bothered to turn up. Those were the days lol :lol:
It may have been 1500, cannot remember, need one of our statto's to correct me.

The opportunity of disappointing a bunch of Brighton fans is worth every bit of this being one of the greatest non-events that could befall our club.

Brighton away. Almost anything would be better than Brighton away. But at least they'll hate it, and that alone makes me happy.

A nice payday away draw with us getting 50% of the 90,000 strong home crowds fees. The Thai's will be happy.

The Tinpot Derby!!! Hurrah!

If we win they are more tinpot than us. And if we lose we are more tinpot than them. Unless winning in a big plastic stadium really is the sign that a team has become tinpot??? I've never been entirely what sure it means, but bring it on!

I imagine Stam will risk even less first team players this time round tbh; really tough run of games following this fixture.
