On ITV 1 right now.

11 v 13

Liverpool at home v Brighton

Liverpool v Brighton

Liverpool v Brighton again.

Everton v Blackpool/Sheff Wed.

Chelsea v Birmingham.

ooooooo

Not bad draw for us.

Stevenage - Spurs btw

Pleased that Stevenage and Crawley are at home.

Sunderland or Boro v Arsenal or Villa

Crawley v Stoke - sure fire TV coverage

Stevenage v Tottenham - also sure for TV

We are obviously going to knock out Chelsea away and win the cup

Big teams avoided each other there. Damn..

Another easy draw for Chelsea, typical.

I can definitely see a potential shock in Crawley v Stoke. Are you happy with this draw?

And I wouldn't write of Stevenage against Tottenham, especially with the Redknapp saga at the moment and Stevenage flying at the moment.

Shit draw

So if we get through Arsenal today, it's possible we'll face O'Neill again.

Was a bit of an anti-climax that.

Stand out is Spurs/Stevenage.

Happy with that. Should progress.

I'm not writing them off, but Tottenham have something about themselves this year that seems to see them win when things are up against them and not going well.

I'm happy with that, prem side visiting us and maybe I'll see Crouchie doing the robot in Bar Med. It's very winnable, if anyone can battle Stoke physically, and you know it yourself, we can. Can't wait and I'm sure I'll be asked to get tickets once they're available since I'm a season ticket holder.

I wonder what the odds were that Liverpool and Everton would have been both drawn at home for three straight rounds?

I said to my dad this morning when we were walking that i'd like Spurs to get Crawley or Stevenage away andi'd definately watch it.

Probably about the same as the odds of us getting drawn away every game in the CC

Also Craig Reid will tear Kaboul and King a new arsehole

Already being asked to buy tickets with my allocation, I don't know how I'm going to handle it.

1 in 64, or 1.5% chance. That's assuming they both qualify from the 3rd and 4th rounds. In reality the odds of this are much lower.

I knew Liverpool where going to get Brighten, Literally minutes after they knocked United out I said they would get Brighten to my dad, Not even kidding..
