Possible midlands derby, Cardiff running the filth all over West London and a S Coast derby.

Yikes

(LOL @ the bandwagoners meeting the Cardiff for the 1st team)

Notts just knocked out Wigan in their replay. 2-0 at the DW.

Excellent Smithers.

Im starting to think that the cup has our name written all over it...but of course being optimistic is part of being a spurs fan...and so is constant dissapointment

Hogdson, Ferguson, Benitez and Wenger go to a pub together

Roy generously buys the first round of beers for everyone, this is then followed by Fergy, then Rafa Benitez buys his round and then finally Wenger gets his round in.

Everyone's having a great time when Roy goes and buys his round .. however when he comes back he only has a beer for himself.

The other three seem bemused and ask him why he didn't get a round for everyone,

Roy replies "sorry, i would, but you guys aren't in the fifth round!"

Spurs have it in the bag imo. Great 2nd half display against Leeds to move through, will only get better.

Spurs are renowned for winning these comps.

More so the League cup

More so the League cup

???

8 Fa Cups to 4 League Cups

Most likely on course for a Chelsea/Tottenham final at this rate, barring another Chelsea "weakened team" debacle like at Blackburn in the League Cup or the usual Spurs being...... well, Spurs.

I wouldn't put it past Villa or Brum to go on a run either, but at the same time I wouldn't be surprised if they don't - with their small squads etc.

Cup is ours this year, ours I tells ye

 

[Morgan30]

Would be kind of funny if Pompey could win it with this squad after winning the 2008 one basically has killed our club

Legitimate question - if you made the final would you fly over??

P.S.  Which cup??  You're still in Europe.....

Shaktar will bend us over good and proper - they are a good side.

If we got to Wembley and I got a ticket sorted - then I would go

Do you know people who know people??  I need to sort one out for United/Villa....

Confused reports from SW6 - appears Chavs didnt show and Cardiff were fighting amongst themselves in the Kings Rd. Quite nasty by all accounts.

Local Tesco's bottle shop (Tesco's Express) was "liberated" and large amounts carted off by said Cardiff fans

Wouldn't surprise me if Milwall hopped on the Tube and went across town, purely for "fun".

 

[Morgan30]

Some interesting stories about the policing at the South coast derby, cops stood watching each side throw bricks at each other, quite a few injured.

4-1 though

 

[FFC Mariner]

Quite possibly the worst football record ever made (and I mean ever). From 1975. I dare anyone to listen to it all the way through.

Home draw 6th round, avoided Chavs and Citeh. Get in.
