Carabao Cup Draw

[ucandomagic]

Good game to test our new boys in - decent opposition with no real downside if we lose.

Having watched our second string play against Barnet and Sunderland in the last 2 years this is a much more valuable run out for them.

Play Monday, Thursday and Sunday in first week. Lovely

Get the new players some minutes at least.

 

[Greg.]

Wolves at home on Monday
Burnley away on Thursday
Villa away on Sunday

We better put out the reserves for the cup game
Villa play Burton Albion in the cup

I still don’t think we are in a position yet to be battling on 3 front come the second half of the season, league and 2 cups. Something has to give, I’d rather bow out the cup and focus on the league.but I know that’s not the way Chris thinks. Could do with the other 2 bodies in before wolves tbh but it’s unlikely

 

[Maidenhead]

Milwall or Cheltenham away if we beat Burnley

Burnley v Blades is the main headline.

Burnley and Millwall. Fucking hell we really are blessed.

 

[Flatulent_Bob]

Terrible draw, but a cup final isn't a unrealistic target for us to have each season and due to fixture congestion the league cup is the one to target.

 

[LS16Blade]

Play the fringe players and get out for me. In a shortened season we dont need more games.

From memory, that is precisely what Dyche has been doing in the domestic cups in recent seasons too. It might not be that easy to get knocked out.

Could be an 'Austria v West Germany 82' type spectacle...

 

[Cassius Kray]

Where does it say that we're playing on Thursday? Nothing on the SUFC website yet and the BBC/Sky have us playing the fixture on the Tuesday (bizarrely).

 

[BigBed]

This is an ok draw for us I think, me thinks this shitty cup could be our first silverware for a while if we play our cards right!?, not counting the trophy for winning league 1.

 

[PLAIN BLADE]

Bias towards South very unfair 8 Prem teams in Norths draw v 5 Prem teams in Souths Draw , 13 v 11 matches ...Rubbish .

Burnley away hard draw. but beat them. Millwall or Cheltenham The Blades should beat either of them, I was thinking never played at Cheltenham.
No fans allowed. never mind.gonna have to get used to that.

 

[SW12 to S12 to S18]

Milwall or Cheltenham away if we beat Burnley

That’s what I’m afraid of, Cheltenham away and we can’t go!

 

[The Crab]

Or on the other hand just think what a five nil destruction would do to.them

Be like seeing an ex with someone half your age, massive house, rolling in cash.

They'd be fucking crushed

 

[Ainsley Harriott]

It's as appealing as Preston or QPR in the FA Cup third round.
