Carabao Cup 5th Round Draw

[blue by birth]

I'm surprised the rags are away to the mighty Bristol City as I was expecting them to be drawn at home.
It was guaranteed that we would be away after our fantastic run of home cup draws.
Definitely a fix that all the big teams avoid each other.
If the draw wasn't shown being drawn live then the authorities that run football should insist on a new draw and it must be televised live.
And as one poster said maybe put all the balls into a bingo drum where they aren't touched until they pop out of the tube and have a camera focussed on it.

Driving home I thought it was a wind up when they said it had been drawn using a pre recorded video. Then those matches come up. Dodgy as fuck. If it’s not fixed they’ve certainly opened a can of worms

It should be re-done when they can sort their act out

 

[Tuearts right boot]

To be honest I'm not overly concerned about this competition this season. We have bigger fish to fry. If we get through, great. If not, no big deal.

Quite agree, would rather go out now and concentrate our firepower on a convincing league win with a ( never thought I'd say this ) decent CL place or even victory.
Wouldn't have been bothered if Wolves had kicked us out TBH, it was only home pride that kept me hanging on.

If we were at home I think we could've won but it's the end of the road

Eh!?!? It’s Leicester not Real Madrid

Eh!?!? It’s Leicester not Real Madrid

Precisely, a premier league team instead of that real from championship

I'd rather face Leicester than Bristol. Both will park the bus anyway.

A two-legged semi in January is a pain in the arse if you don't go on and win the thing.

Who`s happiest with the draw.........the Rags or Carabao?
It`s the sponsor`s dream choice of fixtures.

So the rags get Bristol, what a fucking surprise. No doubt they will be on telly, and no doubt Bristol will give up home advantage and play at the swamp for more money. The competition is a joke and rigged.
