    They very nearly went into group D! That would have been a hell of a group!

    So back to the Carling Cup. Would like to get Swindon. According to Di Canio it's the same as playing barcelona!

    Swindon would be a tough draw as it's too early in the Cup for NA to put out a stronger side.

    After the last match, the interviewer suggested that Stevenage looked a better side than Saints in the first half. Nigel's face was a picture...there was no way he would agree with that! They had possession he was all he was willing to concede.

    Oh just noticed Lamballana's glaring error! He's named it the Carling Cup.

    I find it easier to just call it the League Cup, and will never call it anything different!

    Winnable. We need these games to keep confidence up and Nige will want to play a strongish side at SMS.

    Little known fact: Sheffield Wednesday are the only professional team in the English league with a day of the week in their name.

    Sandwiched between Villa at home on 23rd and Everton away on 28th. Still a chance for some development lads.
