Yeah, nice tie and allows us to rest players or give players games that need them. I still fancy Berbatov and Owen to get their match time in games like this, but it's difficult to fit certain players in if we start both of them. Sir Alex often likes to play three in midfield when we go for the youngsters. Bit too early to have an idea about the team, but maybe Owen and Berbatov will get a half each, Diouf and Macheda either side, Pogba can start in midfield, probably with Cleverley and then whoever needs games from our midfield. Hopefully Rafael could come back in by then as well.

Hope Wolves and Everton play strong sides and dump City and Chelsea out
Thats a great draw. Good for us and some big teams will go out. Plus i dont have to pay for my empty seat at OT. If i get a ticket for aldershot though, then ofcourse i'll go. Not too far to travel to.
Ditto, hopefully i can get a ticket for this one.
We'll get a tiny allocation! Will be a struggle to get a ticket IMO.
Saying that, I'm hoping for a ticket cos I can do this without having to take an afternoon off work

16000 capacity. Will be tough getting 1 me thinks.
After City at home and before Everton away.
It's a conspiracy, no doubt about that.

Eh? They've got a capacity of about 7500!
Nice of you to pick Alex Ferguson's team for him. It'll save him a lot of hassle.

Bloody hell swoosh lad, who let you on here
Cheers.
Afternoon T, you alright?
Always matey. Good to see you.
1/15.
What are the chances!
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Recreation_Ground_(Aldershot)Wiki says 16,000
My bad I was looking at Aldershot F.C.
Should mean Pogba and Fryers can get another game, at least.
Bit odd that... I don't really get where more than half the capacity went, did they just knock down a massive stand or something?
I went to a match there not long after they went bust and restarted, must have been about '94, and there's no way that ground looked like it had ever held 16k (not to mention the record 19,000).
Really hope we draw City in the League Cup 5th Round Draw on Saturday.
United, City, Arsenal, Liverpool, Chelsea, Blackburn... who else is in it?
Your mental. We need them in the Semi Final. Also the 5th round is called the Quarter Finals from this season I think.
I don't want City. Liverpool please.
Chelsea, Blackburn, Liverpool, Man City, Crystal Palace, Man Utd, Arsenal, Cardiff,
Cardiff and Palace
United, City, Arsenal, Liverpool, Chelsea, Blackburn, Cardiff & Crystal Palace.
Two more games against City? Sandwiched between two FA Cup games and the second leg coming 4 days after Arsenal away? Don't fancy that. Want them in the next round.
Home tie to one of the Championship teams obviously and pair Arsenal, Liverpool, Chelsea and City together
As usual I want any away draw - in fact I would quite fancy Palace away!
I want to crush them, they won't put out their first team in the Quarter's
They will if its against us.
At home to City or Pool. We cannot play any worse than we did last Sunday can we?
Away please... saves me money on the auto cup scheme.
When is the draw?
Palace away pleeeeeeease!!!!
When is the draw?
