It was that close! ;)
I know just noticed! Not that we would have done very well ;D :-D
I hate to stir but Im just wondering;honestly how many fans would have us lost ( as we did last nite) so we can concentrate on our league form..are now regretting their thoughts...Im an oldie and would have loved a good ;even though league cup; cup run...especially now a trip to Stamford might have happened..and to see Mouriniho...
Very good question Jas - yet again.Quote:

A cup run used to be largely about bolstering club coffers: today it's about giving us fans something to smile about.
Dreadful title to this thread. I thought someone, with Steve Holland's connivance, had fixed up an emergency home friendly to fill the void on September 6. X-D
Could of been '61 all over again, even the same pies.
watched the draw live last night (not sure why... we're out!), and was initially gutted when Bolton drew Chelsea.Quote:

Plus a trip to stamford bridge wouldn't have been good for the old bank account! ;D
Best not to have any Distractions the League is more important than playing Chelsea RESERVES
exactly why I mentioned it..it still would have been great to play the reserves from Chelski...why bother going in any cups then...Quote:

maybe a few directors would have gone to their first Crewe game, albeit at Stamford Bridge.
just shows the risks of picking fans pockets at 17.50 a throw for short gain (I doubt we actually made money tbh) and throwing a bigger pot away in the next round !
All if's and but's...the game has gone now so lets concentrate on the league, eh!
