I think being at home is more important than the opponent, even though our home record isn't so great this year.

Does anybody know when the match will be?

Home to Arsenal. Hopefully we will have some momentum after a relatively easy November schedule and can get rid of them before its goes to the home and away format. Also if we got to the final I really wouldn't fancy playing them on that large expansive Wembley pitch.

Easy .... We struggled to beat Blackpool ! :evil:

personally i want one of the bigger sides now. Ideally chelsea, then hopefully let the pool play the scum this round too. If your going to do it you might aswell either get knocked out now and not play two extra games or beat the best and get some much needed confidence installed in our side. Ideally the latter. COYS

Gooners, Liverpool or Chelsea at home. We've got a much better chance of beating them earlier on in the competition than in the semi-finals or final. We're gonna have to play one of them at some point if we want to win this cup so might as well get them earlier and prove we can actually win it, rather than playing a load of shit teams from lower divisions on the route there like last year.

Chelsea or L'arse at home. We've got more chance in a one off game than over 2 legs in the semi or in the final. Got to beat them at some stage. Sooner rather than later.

If we're drawn away, we're out.

I'd love to play West Ham. All of their fans are giving it the Barry at the moment about Spurs going 'down with the....', and they neeed to be put in their place.

Quarter against 'Stam, Semi against City or Everton, then Arsenal in the final.

Citeh at home or away. I don't really agree that we have to play the big teams sooner or later, we might as well do it now. That's a bridge too far even far for Ramos in too short a time. Confidence is key, which means winning and taking all Cup runs as far as possible, considering that qualifying via league is by no means a given. On the other hand, facing a hard to break down mid-table team is just as unpalatable, such as Everton which thrives on set pieces. Citeh would be a nice choice and since they have Elano, they'll probably not adverse to giving the game a go even at WHL. Take out Petrov, Elano and Hamann and they're frankly not much of an attacking threat.

I just want Arsenal v Chelsea. As long as that happens I'm not to bothered what happens to us. Ideally I'd want a home game against someone we can beat. Everton or Citeh at home would be ok

I'm with Zuben on this one. You want Arsenal or Chelses at home one game, not two legs or even in the final (the pain of losing a final to them would be intolerable). I'll take anyone at home though.

Bring the fuckers on.

Wouldn't it be better if they played each other and got knocked out? We could get Chelsea in the next round, Liverpool after that and Arsenal in the final otherwise!
