League Cup draw.

[Super_horns]

Well surely cannot do any worse than we did ?!

Swansea coming to the Vic - be a good game .

 

[markwwfc1992]

Our under 23's will play Reading at Molineux

 

[blademan89]

Good cup draw that, some decent ties, all the big boys will get through and leicester, wolves so the best 8 teams will be in the last 16. Theres actually a very good chance 15 of the last 16 will be prem teams though unfortunately.

I'd back Reading to be honest, if we're still in the Europa League I don't think we'll have any priority for the League Cup. Our squad is very small as it is so can see us playing a lot of the under 23's.

 

[SF_]

Ha, as if some mongs want us to keep the same side that played Hull. I don't give a fuck if they've 'earned it' I don't want to see us concede double figures.

 

[Another Walkley Owl]

Not a bad draw for us.
Should be a decent crowd, they'll sell out whatever they're given (anything from 2k to 4.5k around 3k would be my guess) and a half chance of pulling off a shock result.
Hope we play our strongest 11 and have a go at em, will be interesting see how large the gap is between mid Championship and top half Prem teams.

Crap draw for us. I fancy us though, so that’s all that counts . Pompey v Saints is the one . Sheff weds v Everton is also another game that stands out.

 

[Liam_SWFC]

Happy with the draw, if you're not going to get one of the lower ranked sides a game at home to a club like Everton will do, it's winnable but very tough considering how serious Everton are taking the competition. Seeing all the big sides kept apart is a bit shit, can see some potential upsets with the Wolves V Reading, Crawley V Stoke and Burton V Bournemouth games.

 

[Etienne Vermeer]

Thank god we lost. West Ham at home would've been the "prize".

 

[markwwfc1992]

Would have been a sellout and with probable TV money it would have been a nice payday for Millwall. I'm sure 99% of your fans would have loved it.

 

[Liam_SWFC]

What do we reckon will be the TV games? Hoping ours is as I'm now out of the country for the next few years, and not sure if League Cup games are on Ifollow.

Manchester United V Rochdale
Preston V Manchester City
MK Dons V Liverpool
Portsmouth V Southampton

If it's 4 games I see those being chosen, apart from Manchester United V Rochdale it's hard to argue with the rest, south coast derby will be a cracker.

Theres only 2 and it will be mk Dons v liverpool and preston v city. If they dont choose city theyll pick colchester v spurs.

Are you joking or would you seriously have not wanted that fixture?

 

[Etienne Vermeer]

Not joking at all. It's just a hassle every time we play, and they'd probably dick us.

Depends what team we put out. Our starting XI against Plymouth had an average age of 22 including a 33 year old Charlie Adam.

I doubt we would put out a similar team against you lot however.

 

[JJH]

Not joking at all. It's just a hassle every time we play, and they'd probably dick us.

Bizarre then.

Surely they're the games you live for as a football fan. Millwall would have absolutely nothing to lose, if you lost then well they have a squad worth hundreds of millions they were expected to, if they lose it's a huge upset and you've got the bragging rights for a number of years.

Pompey v Southampton?

 

[blademan89]

Pompey v Southampton?

Should be in my opinion but I doubt it. All about viewing figures

 

[M Dogg]

Pompey Saints and MK Dons Liverpool selected

 

[SF_]

Luckily Man City's raping of us won't be televised.

National favourites, MK Dons on instead.

We don't need the ground closure, or massive fine & terrible headlines which would inevitably follow.

Happens with every fiery derby doesn't it? The last derby our manager branded our fans a complete disgrace, yet it was one of the best nights of my life.

Millwall vs West Ham has a fairly ropey history. Last time one of our fans was stabbed walking up to upton park:

Seen it before, mental rivalry.

Absolute loons v absolute loons . I’ll let you decide which set of fans warrants the capital A

 

[Bobbin']

West Ham aren't loons. Gobby Essex twats the majority.

When this fixture is played they certainly are. The new type of West Ham fan I agree with you, but you’d get all of the loons out against Millwall .

 

[Bobbin']

Think there has been a couple of occasions in recent years where West Ham have not sold out at Millwall. Melts.

 

[villa loyal]

No way. If true I wouldn’t have thought that. I much prefer Millwall .
