Na, they're useless, Cheltenham. Saying that, they've just acquired the MIGHTY Barry Hayles, so perhaps he'll be the engineer of an upset against a HUGE Prem side, in the Potters.
Just found out our tie at home to Man City is going to be played in the week of the 22nd of September, which is when most of you will be playing your 3rd round matches.

Lowly Rotherham humbled Wolves by dumping them out of the Carling Cup following a penalty shoot-out victory at the Don Valley Stadium.
The troubled Yorkshire club booked their place in the third round by winning 4-3 on penalties after the match had finished goalless.
:happy:
First Sheff Wednesday, now Wolves :)
A Premiership team next??

Only thing this is going to be useful for us is getting some games for the youngsters and fringe players to help them gain experience and keep them happy respectively.

:no: I'm an Irons fan and I must say that I feel sorry for Alan. I think that he's a nice guy and it's ridiculous that people have called for/are currently calling for his head. However, unfortunately I'm expecting a difficult season ahead, during which Curbs loses his job unfairly.
Well they got through tonight at least. I think it would be very unfair to sack him so soon into the season. Unfortunately I can't see the hammers improving on last year.
The board does seem to be selling players (Ferdinand) over Curbishley's head though and the club has some financial problems, so maybe that could save him.

Yeah he would have been in so much shit if we had lost tonight's game. Yep exactly mate, it would be unfair but a lot of fans are fickle people and I honestly don't think that the board are going to give him much time. Finally, I too doubt that we'll improve on last season and the injuries don't look like they're going to be any kinder either. This is what worries me, if you look at the seven teams that finished below us last season you've got Tottenham, Newcastle, Middlesbrough, Wigan, Sunderland, Bolton and Fulham. All of those teams seem to have improved on their previous season, we haven't and I really do think that this is going to be a long season unfortunately.

Shite draw for us, we're going for the league this year.
Not really, but for a League 2 club to beat a Championship club is still a shock, despite Rotherham already beating 2 to get this far.

It's only just a game and against a Championship club so how can they play 'the most beautiful football in the WORLD' when they haven't play against a decent England League team? Yes, they did play beautiful football but it's too early to say the most beautiful football in the world.

Here's hoping Man Utd really want to win this because if not Spurs are looking very good to retain and their fans would be unbearable if that was the case.

:lol:
Have to admit when he left for West Brom he went gash but the penalty is a trademark and has been doing quite a while now.
The one where he's gash yet lazily rolls a 'could-go-either-way' penalty in.
To be honest, as long as the goalie dived (no matter which way), it was always going to be a goal.
Good game so far. Liking the battle between Lennon and Evra.
Decent match so far, Spurs having decent chances.
Seems everyone is getting cramp, even the refs.
2 penalty misses by..... 2 English players, what a surprise.
Good game for a 0-0.

Not sixth but seventh. Top four European Cup, fifth and sixth UEFA Cup but an extra place which is seventh i think.
I'm sure it's sixth. The other UEFA Cup place goes to the FA Cup winners (or runners-up). Although if, say Man United face Chelsea in that final, 7th spot in the league will get UEFA Cup participation.

I'm not sure about that mate. When we was in the final with Man Utd a few years back, because United finished in the top 4 and they won it, meant that who ever finished seventh got the UEFA Cup spot.
I'm hoping that's the case obviously for a small chance that West Ham may get that 7th Place.

Yeah same here mate, we're are in seventh but Fulham have that game in hand which will take them into seventh if they win that game. It's in our own hands now, we need to start scoring and we need to beat you lot Wednesday.
I wouldve sworn we were 7th after todays win. I think the competition is healthy and the race for Uefa Cup places is genuine instead of the bigger teams just occupying them because they didn't get into the CL.

Sorry mate you, forgot about today's results. Yeah i agree, theres something to play for at both ends of the league. You could say that the league is wrapped up but Aston Villa are playing for that European Cup place so it's busy.
I'm not sure about that mate. When we was in the final with Man Utd a few years back, because United finished in the top 4 and they won it, meant that who ever finished seventh got the UEFA Cup spot.
It depends what happens in the FA Cup now. If Man Utd, Chelsea, Arsenal and Everton all reach the semis, the last EUROPA League spot will go to 7th place.
Assuming Arsenal finish in a Europe spot :D
