Fair enough Mr Aftab, and we must all get our jollies where we may in these bleak, benighted days, but who do you want us play in the League Cup?

They're the Two Pints of Lager and a Packet of Crisps of cup teams.

I lived for a while near Brookmans Park where the eponymous hotel was owned by Martin Chivers. On my first visit he was working behind the bar and he was very happy to talk about the League Cup final against the Villa. Whether or not he was being kind to me on declaring I was at the time of the final  a 13 year old attending Wembley for the first time he insisted that the best team lost that day. Although disappointed the memory of that game has stayed with me only outdone by the semi- final victory over Man Utd at Villa Park, still the best match I ever attended.
I completely agree, I remember that glorious night so well. The noise was still ringing in my ears at school the next morning. What a bloody night that was. UTV

The semi vs ManU was indeed a total stormer. Looking back, I realise how privileged I was to be there.
Apart from that my best League Cup memory was the 1994 3-1 defeat of odds-on favourites, Ferguson's boys. Oh so sweet!

I don'r remember us beating Aberdeen?
ha, fat fingers on Ipad mini = typo. Corrected

I would have liked a trip to Coventry seeing as they lied and aren't coming back like they promised. So after last night by default I will take Rochdale as it would be a new ground to visit.

Would like us to get Brighton away just because I live there at the moment, then again that might be tricky so would settle for a home tie against them ;)
