I think the draw is on Saturday? I could be wrong though, it may be Friday. Anyway, here are last 16 the teams in the hat;

Liverpool
Arsenal
Barnsley
Bolton
Portsmouth
Blackburn
Peterborough
Scúnthorpe
Sunderland
Stoke
Aston Villa
Chelsea
Everton
Man City
Man Utd
Tottenham


I'd like the Arse at home, but I'd like to get them in the final. I'd hope for Barnsley at the Lane, but we'll probably get a lovely trip to Old Trafford.

Who do we want? Who don't we want? Who do you want?

I don't really mind who we get, as long as we get a home fixture and avoid Man City.

The draw is live on Sky Sports Saturday Soccer on....Saturday funnily enough!

S****horpe or Barnsley at home would be nice. I think the teams to avoid are Everton, Man City and Aston Villa as they will still put out strong sides. A home draw against the big four would be ok as they will put out weaker/reserves players as the League Cup is not overly important to them in comparison to the League, FA Cup and Champions League.

Nb. its funny that part of the scunny name is **** out, i would never write any nasty rude words on here as i know there are a fair few impressionable junior spurs who visit the site regularly....those of you who do swear should be ashamed of yourself! :whistle:

I'd like Peterborough. They're a good footballing side without much metal. A team with many backup players would beat them convincingly home or away.

Incredible, 13 of the premier teams in the last 16, and most are playing weakened sides.

The gulf widens.

Because of the patented "hot ball" system used in the draw, the big four are guaranteed to avoid each other (as usual).

We are bound to get a tricky away tie - like Chelsea.

I bet Utd get S****horpe or Barnsley at home.

Optimistically, I don't care who we get but would obviously like to avoid a trip to Old Trafford or Stamford Bridge.

There are 12 premiership teams in the last 16 (not including us of course), which means there is a massive 80% chance that we'll end up in an all-premiership tie!!

The odds are against us for getting a draw with a lower league team - but you never know.

But i agree with NLDNBOI above, aslong as we get a home tie, i'd be happy!

Yep, draw is on Saturday at midday. Live on Sky Sports.

I'm hoping for Peterborough at home!

A draw pediction? wassapoint?

:shhh:

What's the point with any thread/post? It's for information or fun...this one goes in the fun basket.

Back to topic: I'd like us to draw either one of the big 4 at home, or one of the non-premier teams.
