Capital One Football League Cup 13/14

Recommended Posts

Posted

Went to Colchester 1-5 Peterborough.

 

Good game, scoreline a bit flattering as Posh ran riot at the end.

 

Were we linked with Zakuani? He was very solid. McCann was immense in midfield, Tomlin was poor first half and superb the second, don't think he's good enough for us - a lower-end Champiosnhip player for me.

 

Posh's 3rd was a hammer shot and the 4th, Tomlin, was a world-class curler. Unbelievable.

Thanks Lamby, helpful of you. :)

 

 

They say it everytime theres a pitch invasion, its the way we are, we look at the worst possible outcome everytime even though its never justified.  They can't just ignore it or praise the support, which I thought was great for a first round tie of a 2nd rate cup.

 

A steward did get trampled on actually, I'm sure he's okay or we'd have heard more about it but it was a consequence of the pitch invasion. Having said that I don't blame the fans at all, the police have got to be damn careful with those horses. Way more dangerous than any supporter.

I'd like Rotherham away. Local for me and I've seen us play at their other two grounds, so seeing them at their new ground would be nice.

Shite competition anyways  :rolleyes:

 

(Seriously - in true Albion style it's not over yet , apparently some of our fans racially abused one of their players - bit hard as hardly anyone was there , and Newports players and coaching staff were throwing homophobic abuse at our main stand it seems ...)

Out of those for POSSIBLE cupsets:

Burton Albion vs Fulham - the brewers tend to raise their game as we found out to our cost

Derby county vs brentford - should be a good game I fancy brentford to possibly nick it

Leyton orient vs hull - orient are flying and they're playing at home

Maybe Peterborough vs reading - possible high scoring game
