draw? (1 Viewer)

skybluelee · Jan 11, 2013

Presumably there will be a draw to decide whether we are home or away in the area 2nd leg. Anybody know when it is?

SkyBlueBlood · Jan 11, 2013

All I can see is that it is a behind closed doors draw at the FL and my guess is not till after the 15th when Crewe play Bradford.

Otis · Jan 11, 2013

Think away first would very much suit us.

Win away and it'll take the pressure off the home leg. Get the feeling that once more we may well struggle in the home tie.

Gaz · Jan 11, 2013

Yeah I read that the draw will take place behind closed doors too.
Thought that seemed odd really.

I agree about having the away tie first Otis,

Otis · Jan 11, 2013

But then by the same token, if we were at home first and drew you would still really fancy us in the away leg.

As long as we didn't lose I would still be very confident.

Anyway, as I have been saying constantly since Sheff Utd. our name is on the cup! I can feel it in my bones!

skybluelee · Jan 11, 2013

I've already dusted off my Wembley 87 rossette and scarf from the loft in preparation. Bring on the arch!

Skybluelee.
Funny that my wife and I said exactly the same thing about getting up into the loft and getting our flags, paper cuttings, rossette and special scalf down for a clean up.

lol

I bet Villa also thought this!

Otis · Jan 11, 2013

Are Villa a good away side then?

Just checked and they haven't won away all season, so don't quite see your point.:thinking about:

We are a very good away team, Villa aren't.

crowsnest · Jan 11, 2013

Home in the first leg

covcity4life · Jan 11, 2013

Really? I wasn't being difficult, I just know that all the villa fans I know, plus the ones I heard on the radio, were happy they had the away leg first so they could win and take the pressure off the home leg.

Otis · Jan 11, 2013

Ah yes, but Villa aren't the Sky Blues!

We are away day kings. Villa are deluded pretenders to the crown!

Jesus, imagine even thinking of saying that last season!!

Anyway, do we know when the draw is yet?!

EDIT: sorry, just seen! Home at first then. Doesn't matter, we can do this!

(Tongue in cheek): Think positive - If we can hold them to a draw at the Ricoh, the 2nd leg should be a breeze!

CovMatt1987 · Jan 11, 2013

so, home first leg then.

Im torn on wether this is a good or bad thing. I know generally we would want to be playing home in the second leg, so we can get back to our place and know what we need to do. But I dont know how confident I am in us at the Ricoh! I like the threat we can have on the counter, and if we can get a win at home - i can see us getting goals on the break against a team going at it to make the deficit back.

Still - would have been nice to have the home leg home second, so if we did make it we would have the celebrations for the Wembley trip!

covcity4life · Jan 11, 2013

we need to wim to win at home,cant be any other way

do not want to put pressure on us to win away in a cup semi!

2-0 home then pick teams on counter away

win 5-2 on aggregate!

Otis · Jan 11, 2013

1-0 at home and then a 7-1 win away 2nd leg.

skybluelee · Jan 11, 2013

Bollox. Gonna have a fight on my hands to get the afternoon off work for this date.

Mucca Mad Boys · Jan 11, 2013

If we get Bradford, being home will be a good thing, Bradford's crowd helped carry them over v Arsenal and Villa, lets hope we get the home win!

torchomatic · Jan 11, 2013

Doesn't bother me home or away first. We just need to be stronger over two legs. All there is to it.

Houdi · Jan 11, 2013

Of course none of this would have been possible if we hadn't been relegated..So maybe relegation wasn't the worse thing in the world,and the club is gradually learning how to win again.For years the club and its fans have had a losing mentality,we are gradually learning how to win again.When the winner went in last night,how many fans were thinking ,its only a Paint Pot Cup????
You only had to look on every fan's face after to the game,to realise that winning at any level is still enjoyable.

Might have to book time off for these. Wanted to go to the game last night and the Sheff Utd game.

Play up Sky Blues!!

SkyBlueBlood · Jan 11, 2013

Definitely away first I cant make the first leg.

Too late look I have missed this one.
