[Archived] Carling Cup 09-10

[Presty On Tour]

We're in the 2nd Round draw tomorrow(Wednesday) night on Sky Sports.

Always look forward to the domestic cups especially after being in Cardiff in 2002 and experiencing the semi final dramas. We seem to do quite well in this competition and have reached the later stages in recent years, so here's hoping it continues and we can progress to the final again this season and grace the new Wembley for the first time.

More shiny silverware in the trophy cabinet and a european tour next year would be nice! With most teams in the top flights prefer to play their youth/reserves to avoid injuries to key players etc, this is seen by some pundits as an easier access to European qualification than through league position.

Anyway who do people want?

I'd like Swansea or Cardiff away for personal reasons or a kind easy looking home draw against a lower league side.

Would Burnley at home be to much to wish for.

Preston away? Good local game, good away following!

[1864roverite]

Leeds United or MK Dons Home

[RibbleValleyRover]

An easy draw would be nice, just need to avoid Arsenal kids...

Good record like you said in this competition we always seem to get the quarters or semis. It would be nice to win another trophy that's for sure (i really, really want the FA Cup though that's a more difficult comp).

[Balwer]

London team please. Preferably not a big one. Fulham is the closest ground to me, but would take QPR too.

[Hughesy]

Home draw against Notts County

[Iceman]

Mk Dons at Ewood please. Keith Andrews with a hattrick

[Steve Moss]

Mk Dons at Ewood please. Keith Andrews with a hattrick

^ Justice!

[Tim Southampton Rover]

Any club on the South Coast will do me.

[Ben-2000]

Yeah I'll go for the Dons too, or of course Bumley!

[roversmum]

Currently Swindon Town are beating MKDons 2-1. Whilst it would give me great pleasure to trounce MK at Ewood, after Swindon's drubbing at Gillingham at the weekend it would give me much pleasure for this to remain the score!

[brfcshabba]

MK Dons 4-1 down

[Ben-2000]

Never mind, Blackpool are winning, that would be a good away day.

[modes98]

What a manager that MK Dons man. We should get him in.

[Ben-2000]

Stanley have just got a late winner...

[Tim Southampton Rover]

Saints winning 2-0.

Rickie Lambert scores on his debut.

[JAL]

Stanley have just got a late winner...

They'd be a good draw Stanley away or home just to help them out financially.

[Ben-2000]

They'd be a good draw Stanley away or home just to help them out financially.

Shame the people of Accrington don't worry about their clubs finances, their gates are a joke.

So potentially a local derby against either them, Bumley, Nobend, Blackpool or even Bolton.

Oh dear Mr Ince. 4-1. Ah well, it'll won't be his fault of course. Never is. "Hmmm, we had too many injurues, I wasn't given any money, Saturn wasn't aligned with Neptune etc etc etc." Results like that will give me much pleasure all season. Here's to many more!

You might change your mind when you're sat in the stand with no roof trying to fend off pouring rain and sea wind

[roversmum]

Well done Swindon Town

[SYRovers]

I'd happily ###### off my old man for Saints away.

Once the players cross the white line it is all down to them. Like, you know.

Hereford united now in extra time against charlton. A hereford win and getting them in the draw would be a dream tie for me. Think I'd end up with a full house lol.
