Leeds vs Norwich and Bristol vs Hull are great ties as well, we could be looking at a really good opportunity to reach the semi-finals if we can get past Preston and then draw the winners of one of those ties.

Steady - we will be having none of that optimism malarkey on here - behave yourself, you young scamp

EDIT: Southampton/Sunderland is a great opportunity as well, neither team in great form. Also with City/United and Tottenham/Liverpool we'll see some big teams fall.

This could be a fantastic opportunity! Although watch us beat Preston and then go away to Man City!

Exactly it's a stay of execution
 
Not when the injuries start piling up mate it's pointless
We don't have injuries piling up. Quite the opposite is the case, in fact. We need these cup games to keep the fringe players fit and sharp given we have a big squad where not everybody can play in the league games.

You need to sack the muesli off and get a bacon sarnie down you mate.

I'm not very well so my muesli intake is hampered
 
I appreciate that's your opinion and you're entitled to it, however if you really think we can win the cup I think you need more muesli mate
I think the probability is that we won't win it, but that doesn't mean we don't have a chance. We rotated most of the team and we'll rotate them back for the next league game so what is the problem?

Nice to see you're coming around
I have more chance winning the lottery
 
Don't think so. I would expect to see us win more than once in 13 million attempts - - 3, maybe 4 times even

That was the old odds of winning the lottery (well nearly 13,983,816 to 1 were the actual odds). The odds of winning it now are 45,057,474 to 1*
The bookmakers would suggest we have a slightly better chance of winning the cup, but then what do they know #cough#Leicester#cough#

* I knew an A-level in pure maths with Stats would come in handy one day.
 
Bet Victor are only offering 16/1 on us winning it, where as uni bet have us at 33/1 to make the final! Unibet are also offering 75/1 on Forrest making the final and they are out goes to show what they know!

Wow, 75-1. Don't care if Forrest are out they are good odds. I'm going to have a tenner on that. You just never know.
