This is great for this cup. Sponsored by a sneeze, put the draw on a time when people are working, they've now ****ed up the draw itself. Pull some balls out of a hat and get on with it.

Joke sponsors, they've ****ed up the draw for each round

 

[Plutarch]

Now an hour and twenty minutes late. I'm amused by this stumbling incompetence.

This is a shambles. It'll have new sponsors before we know the draw.

 

[Tosker]

best go back to the black bag and two hands - no room for technical errors then

Semi-final lineup looks good if the favourites all win

 

[carter777]

Chelsea v Bournemouth
Arsenal v West Ham
Leicester v Man City
Bristol v Man United

Nice draw I think, be good to see what some of the youngsters can do against West Ham.

Think we've got the toughest draw. London Derby, will be very competitive.

Dunno depends what version of Mahrez and Vardy turn up against City.

I'm not one for conspiracies but it does look like the draw almost ensures the 4 big teams make it to the semis.

Have to feel for the small teams, West Ham, Bournemouth, Bristol and Man City.

We don't give a flying **** unless we randomly stumble into the final This might as well be an u-23 cup.

Only reason we fielded a decent team against Tottenham is because we enjoy ****ing with them.

If this wasn't a fix then my name ain't Fixity McGinty! Perfect ****ing draw. Just like I'll never believe that JFK was killed by Lee Harvey Oswald, I'm never going to believe that this was a fair, just, clean draw.

They've essentially, if it all plays out as expected guaranteed a bumper semi-final - Imagine Arsenal vs Chelsea & UTD. vs City - ****ing great TV ratings & then you get a top tier final also. The ****ing Caraboose Cup needs as much hype as possible and they need the big boys to give them that.

So obvious to me that this was rigged.

And I am one for conspiracy theories because a lot of them ain't theories, they're reality!

West Ham om tuesday and Liverpool on friday. Doubt we'll see a strong side.

Found a fellow 'nutbag'

we actually know a thing or two but don't tell people or they'll crucify you for being honest.

What a game that was. And then getting knocked out by Bradford in the next round, peak banter era
