League Cup 2021-22: Round 4 draw.

[yammers]

Who is the clueless female presenting the draw?

Whenever she was on “Quest” during our championship years, she always brought some life to the presenting role. I’d rather listen to her any day than pricks like Murphy, Mills etc.

A clueless comment.

Completely agree! She was presenting the game with Barrow the other night alongside Lee Hendrie and Glen Murray.  I quite enjoyed the chat and banter between them and she didn’t come across as clueless to me at all.

The draws aren't fixed. What a load of bollocks.

Surprised, as it isn't like the poster in question to believe mindless conspiracy theories...

What conspiracy theories?? Name all the conspiracies ive mentioned?

Utter bollocks

Are you not an anti-vaxxer any more? Well, glad you've seen sense.

How can someone  be an anti vaxxer who has had the vaccine?

So as expected i didnt share any conspiracy theories.

This is a thread about the league cup not covid so lets keep it on subject

[cdbearsfan]

Good, then. So you're not an idiot, you just support the right of other idiots to endanger lives.

I support freedom of speech and choice just to correct you. I dont beleive in divide which is what happened.You can have vaccine and still have a different opinion from others

As i say this is  aleague cup thread. Plenty of covid threads if you want go discuss in one of those 🙂

[cdbearsfan]

Sure. I don't generally. Just annoys me when people put the "freedom" of conspiracy theory loving arseholes ahead of the freedom of vulnerable people to actually stay alive.

Freedom of speech is not the same as freedom to act with impunity regardless of how your actions may effect others. In any case, nobody with an IQ over single figures believes in total freedom of speech, anyway.

I know the date's still TBC, but if anyone is planning on going to the Chelsea game via Chiltern, there's engineering work taking place around Bicester late at night (after 23:35). The 22:33 from Marylebone to Brum isn't affected, but there's a bus replacement running for part of the journey for the last train back at 23:07.

[wolfman999]

Oh well. The only thing the Blues and the Baggies drew was a night off.

[sickbeggar]

I'm usually for playing the kids in these fixtures but looking at it, I hope we play the first team for once. Chelsea have Tottenham away the game before and City at home the game after, so 2 hard games will mean they're likely to put the stiffs out, albeit the 200m stiffs . We have the plastic mancs the game after so i'd say concentrate on Everton at home and the Cup as the priorities.

[cdbearsfan]

You'd hope we are physically fit enough to deal with three games in a week, anyway. I agree with sickbeggar (dafuq???)... we should go for it.

You would like to hope so we definitely lòoked alot mroe sharper against Newcastle.  Watford we looked ridiculous at points

[john e]

If we get a good allocation it will be a good game for those that can’t normally get away tickets

[Drummond]

I hope we go for it too. I hate it when we don't try.

Same team as the other night then! 😁

Just a quick, and somewhat late, comment...

When they were about to start the draw, the wankers at Sky displayed the numbers to look out for.... You can guess which clubs... Man City, Man Utd, Liverpool, Chelsea, Tottenham, Arsenal and....... West Ham!

[Smithy]

It's a real shame that we'll be playing a team that could rest their first-11 and still field team with half a dozen internationals.  I guess now it comes to down to whether Dean wants some more experience for the kids, or whether he wants us to try and win the whole thing, because as much as I loved watching the youngsters at Barrow, if we play the same sort of side at Chelsea we'll likely to go out.

Yes, Nakamba needs to come off for Luiz for a start.
