Spurs in the Cup.

Quote[/b] (Hong Kong Blue @ Jan. 09 2007,12:30)]On a slightly different point, what set of players do you think will be more up for the replay at Barnsley?

After the manner in which Barnsley came back from the dead I thought they were strong favourites for the replay.

But I wonder will the draw (for the next round, rather than the result at Roots Hall) change things? Will our players take the attitude: of all the teams to get, not again. Or will they think they've got some unfinished business which will spur them on (excuse the pun) to win at Oakwell. I suppose the fact that half our midfield will fancy another trip to their old stomping ground works in our favour.

You give our players far too much intelligence!

We are spoilt with having two big games recently.

However its still a great draw and another nice money spinner for the club should we get through.

Thats the problem though, I dont think we will beat Barnsley so am not getting excited about it....

I hear what you're saying Beefy but it's just one of those funny things, isn't it? I'm sure if we beat Barnsley, we'd sell out our allocation for White Hart Lane but I just know what I'd prefer to be celebrating at the end of the season.

Add that to the fact that we've already played Tottenham this season and the horrible journey out of London...

I'm sure we all know what we'd want to be celebrating at the end of the season. I don't think a couple more cup matches will do us any harm. If anything we need to be playing every week to get a rhythm. If we don't make the 4th Round won't we go 14 days without a game?

'tis a fair point.

I guess I'm more concerned by the midweek replay at Oakwell than the Saturday fixture against Tottenham.

I'd never make a politician. I love it when someone changes my opinion!

Man..u and Spurs.. and now Spurs potentially again and people arn't that fussed..

  I'm gobsmacked..  Seasons like this come along once in a blue moon..  Fk me getting to the third round was enough for a street party for the last 10 yrs!!

Doubt ticket prices would be the same as the carling cup because they are charging Cardiff £27 for lower tier and £32 for Upper Tier, so this could also put off some fans still struggling after hefty outlays in December and January.

Suppose on the plus side at least we get 50% of the gate if we make it.
