League Cup round 3 fix. Man U (A)

[cdbearsfan]

Nah come on, we're having these Manc rats.

Of course we aren't.

Properly ridiculous. I hate having to play this lot the regulation twice a season without adding bullshit fixes at their place into the equation.

[eamonn]

Is the league game at OT too? Didn't we play them consecutively in January aswell? I hate them!

[Drummond]

My plea for plenty of away tickets may have been answered.

Judging by last season it'll be 3000 or so at £30 or 5000 at circa £3m each.

Just seen the draw and that's probably the loudest I've laughed out loud ever. No surprises at all. There's something going on as this can't be normal.

Instead of guess the goal are we having guess what minute there's a shocker of a decision?

League game at Villa, presumably on the Sunday (6th November). League Cup game up there, most likely the Wednesday (9th November).

[LeonW]

We know the officials will make it happen for them. Send the kids out to play or just withdraw from the competition whenever this draw happens. It's absolutely pointless.

Michael Oliver bound to be the ref and will give them their obligatory helping hand.

I'll go Villa goal 63 minutes.

Shocking decision is when said goal is disallowed seventeen minutes later after replay shows that one of our players didn't have his shirt tucked in during the warm up.

[Richard E]

This could be the first time we'll beat Man United twice in a matter of days.

I feel like the word ‘could’ is doing a lot of heavy lifting in this sentence.

Could be an opportunity for a bespoke bonus for this fixture!
I’ll have a think.

[cdbearsfan]

It's literally untrue anyway.

Given we played them in pre season and we still have our FA Cup game against them too, we’d have played them 5 times this season.
