It's the potential injuries and suspensions that are a pain in the arse that we don't need. A year to the day since Cairney got his injury at Donny by the way (he tweeted it earlier).
No good away fixtures then! At least your close enough to make it back for a few home games to get your fix!
It's a delicate balance I suppose, obviously there's the risk of injury but if you don't take the risk you don't achieve. Hard to say isn't it, we could go on and do a Swansea or we could play the first team, get Huddlestone and Aluko injured, get knocked out and call it a disaster!
Achieve safety (or at least a good cushion) and then have a go in the FA Cup in the new year. Until our preseason expectation is midtable I can't be doing with the League Cup, it's too early in the season for me to be happy with us taking any route that risks our survival.
McLean and Stewart. We can't give them away....!!!! Why not start a Dutch auction. Start out at £500,000 each and see how low it will go.. I would expect Brian Laws to be interested at around the £50k mark.
I think this is a very good draw for us. Should be a tough game, local team, at home. I think this is good.
Any home draw is a good draw. I bet Udders fans can come and go as they please for the game though. WYP will be declaring a state of emergnecy soon.
This is the best chance we've ever had to win a major competition. Anyway imagine all those Hull Tigers kits flying off the rails in the far east if we do!!
Nice to have a home draw in the coc and tickets are selling well so far Nick Thompson has said. No reason for the crowd to be less than 10,000. Match is well priced for all for starters. Our squad players should be more than good enough for whatever team Udders care to bring over. Lets give last seasons formation a run out 3 - 5 - 2.

SB might just give Graham a run out off the bench, depending on what happens goal wise at Newcastle, just to give him a chance of getting a goal. Did anything happen with those to trialists, there seemed to be talk of giving them a contract? If they are on board, they will probably get a run out.
How did Gedo get to be out of the country and not allowed back in without a Visa when he has been here all summer training, and was here at the Norwich game. ha, i'll put this on the Gedo thread.
