Yes, us proper Blues can just sit back and smile at the plastics and glory hunters.
Or you can just sit back and smile that I will watch this one on the box and save my cash for the Final ;)

It’s usually the same faces involved in the drawMy major problem believing that draws are rigged is that literally thousands of people would know about it. And everyone one of them would have told people. And everyone of the people who’d been told would have told more people. Etc. etc. Just about everybody in television and football would know. Including those that are on the bad end of the fixing. Yet I’ve never heard one person inside the game seriously suggest it. You’ve got ex pros fighting each other for media work to keep an income coming in from the game. They’re happy to throw fellow ex pros, managers and referees under the bus with stories that might get them a payday. But not one has ever suggested cup draws are fixed. If they are, I find it incredulous that someone wouldn’t have spilled the beans by now.

The owners are not the same thing as the club, and it wasn’t even the same ownersI know we love Vinny, but there's no way i can have Burnley as a second club or even like them. Never forget they were one of the teams that pushed for us to be punished for FFP, they wanted us kicked out of Europe. We're not friends, just like Arsenal, they may have people at the club that we love but they're responsible for trying to destroy us. We have to beat the absolute snot out of them, sorry Vinny x
They’re greedy grasping little men. why would they jeopardise their place on the gravy train by whistle blowing.My major problem believing that draws are rigged is that literally thousands of people would know about it.
