Whenever we have been promoted in our history, we have always beaten at least one top flight team in a cup competition.

I wouldn't mind drawing a lower-Premier League team that would play their reserves, playing a strongish team against them and getting a confidence-boosting win. Someone like Swansea at home.

Not Man United. I'm enjoying the respite from our abject surrenders against them, and can't remember a Steve Bruce team ever winning against them.
