Lucky draw. Pity we are playing away. This cupcompetition could end up with 4 big teams in the semi.

Quarter Final Draw

Good post, and welcome. Hope you still lose though :)HuntingTheFox said:Hello all!
Glad you like the draw; I don't think many sane Leicester fans are expecting to win the game, especially when you're saying the likes of Jovetic will get a run out. We beat Fulham with some 'second-choice' players but in the first half an hour they looked on a different level to us. Don't make a mess defensively like they did and your class should show through (never say never though!)
The match will also be sandwiched in-between our games against Burnley and QPR, so the week will be relentless and difficult.
As for tickets, you should get around 6,000, I'm sure you bought that many down here in the cup. Don't be so down on the city, it's not terrible, and there's always a dead king to go and see if you have time on your hands.
Very much like Man City, always hope you win the league and enjoyed the cup games back in 2011. Please try not to patronise that it's our 'cup final' though. Yes it's a big game and yes I'll go crackers if we score/win, but it really isn't the be all and end all. I'd much rather win both the games between this one than this match, personally. Don't want another fun play-off campaign if we can help it.
Enjoy it if you come down!

Add the Bayern away game a week before into the mix too. Could be a dead rubber though, and our chances of winning there are slim. Think we'll see a similar line-up at Leicester as we saw tonight.
Agreed. Bayern will be a non event, the lesser of the two reserve games. Might do both :-)

Looks like it will have to be a car journey to Leicester. Trains aint really an option, especially if it goes to Extra Time

I'm up for this one. I went to uni at Leicester so I have an affection for the place and the football team.
Only a couple of hours drive away and plenty of tickets available.
Sounds good to me.

Pretty excited to have a club like yourselves to come to our ground. Massively enjoyed the FA cup 2-2 draw we had a few years ago. No denying that your an absolute class above but i'm sure we'll give it a good go. Bit of a soft spot for City, good team!
Augerooooooooooooo is probably one of the best non-Leicester City all time favourite sporting moments for me! Me and a friend celebrated that goal as much as I have Leicester goals (HATE Manure).
All the best for the league, hope you win it, and hopefully we have a good game when you travel to Leicester!
Cheers

You mean savour one victory before watching another.

Apologies, I'm sure this will have been covered elsewhere but does anyone know why the Sunderland - Southampton game isn't being played till next week? Not relevant to this thread or city in general but I was just curious!
