The run continues... Now 4 draws in a row for the first time since the 2004-05 season, when there was a 6 draw run

2-2 Oxford (a) 0-0 Cov (h) 1-1 WBA (a) First time we've drawn 3 in a row in the league since the 2008-09 season! (Happened twice that year, both of those runs started with draws against Oldham Athletic)

As if I only got him third!

Facundo? Edit: Esteban too? Another edit: Leonardo three?

That game Mike Dean didn't notice we started with 12 players?

I share that experience. Coming from that part of Leicestershire, I'll always see Derby as the main rival and still love to see them fail. The harder the better. 3-1 in the Cup 4th Round replay 2017 was the last competitive match, and apparently also beat them 3-1 in a friendly in July 2022. Last time they won was 12 years ago n the Championship. Someone has done a bit of Wiki editing and stealthily called them County Derby on there. I'm not responsible but wholeheartedly approve

It's 1 Feb, 3pm. Sky website had it wrong before, they have since corrected it:

Yes, but I'm not sure whether a 17-24 finish is unlikely - won't speculate on that as there are too many variables (Arsenal's results, and the results of others around them). Tue v Wed isn't based on the draw itself, it's more the factors cited by Krefelder: If you were using 'luck of the draw' as a figure of speech there, rather than referring to the actual draw, I'd say that a different figure of speech might've been more appropriate to avoid confusion: a 'flip of a coin'.

You're right about the draw procedure notes, which state "In principle, the seeded clubs play the return leg matches at home". I was wrong to base my odds on the assumption that the order of home/away legs would be based on an open draw. The current CL table has Arsenal in 7th place. They're level on points with 9th at the moment, and are only 2 points above 17th. No idea which bracket they'll finish in based on this. So I'll withdraw my 75% number - it's more complicated than that, even before we try to figure out how likely a home Arsenal first leg against an unknown opponent is to be given a Tuesday date rather than a Wednesday. For me, broadcasters should be forced to have more respect for fans. They shouldn't be allowed to put a match with this much uncertainty into the Saturday early slot, as our KO time might not be known with any certainty as late as 1 Feb, 11 days before the match!

If Arsenal are in the CL playoff round, there's a 75% chance that our game stays at 12:30pm: 50% chance Arsenal get drawn away for that leg. Then from there, it's a 50% chance their game gets put on the Wednesday, rather than the Tuesday. So only a 25% chance that we move to 8pm. Another wrinkle: If 'Same Old, Always Cheating' do get drawn away for that leg, we'll need to wait til CL TV fixtures get confirmed to know which date their CL game is on (won't be immediately after the draw, but would expect this by the 1st of Feb)
