EFL Cup - 3rd Round Draw (WBA away)

[Aytoun]

As keeps being mentioned there is now no attempt to disguise the total bias to the rags. Most of the 658 million fans who tune in will not have the slightest idea who or what Burton are.

They will of course think they are - and will be encouraged by the media so to do - world class opposition. So when peg & his peggies storm to a huge victory with 2 own goals & 3 offside goals there will be more worldwide euphoria. YCNMIU

Seriously, this Rags on the TV for every round of the League Cup and FA Cup is a joke.

But we have to remember that the FA and the TV companies want maximum exposure for their brand and product, so having the Rags on every time has to be part of the TV deal.

On a plus point, I can't wait to see the empty seats, and the official crowd figure of 76,500.

This is why I was so angry at Pep last year. Putting kids up against them.

Pep mate, listen to an old man.

PUT THE FUCKERS OUT. EVEN THEY CAN'T BE ON TV IF THEY ARE FUCKING OUT OF THE CUP.

Does this mean our game is definitely the Tuesday?

I was in Portugal last year, we were playing Swansea and the rags had Northampton. The rags commentary was on in the background.
You'd have thought they were tanking Bayern Munich, the way they were carrying on.

I was the same,put the kids or reserves out for anybody except THEM !

City fans after the slim 1-0 defeat glossed over it ,saying they could only scrape past us with our b-team,basically we gave them a free run to the final where the officials made sure they beat southampton.Somebody at City should of had a word with gaurdiola before the rag game .
