:rolleyes: Phil Thompson having a snipe as he picked out United to play at Old Trafford - "There's a shock"

Take yourself to that football ground
It's quite nice thinking what they've had to go through to become so bitter. 20 years.
Oh yeah. He clearly nose what it means to be very sad and bitter.

The draw's alright. Wolves are a decent but unspectacular side, and will provide a good, but not insurmountable challenge for our younger players.

The home draw will now automatically reopen all the old debates about the ACS, but there we go. Hopefully the lads can show what a good developing youth system we have again this year, and go on a good league cup run.

It may not be Europe, but I'm still looking forward to this.

I'm opting out - not paying for fecking Wolves at home
I'll go if they bring back the 20% reduction. Otherwise it'll be a case of trying to shift my ticket. It's a fecking outrage that we are the only club in the league who charge full price for the Carling Cup (and only one of two teams that are happy putting out a full reserve side if we reach the final).

Tough tie for us. I'm sure Fergie won't want to be humbled by them again. We better send a strong enough team.
We'll send our reserve team of Lindegaard, Rafael, Ferdinand, Vidic, Fabio, Carrick, Giggs, Valencia, Fletcher, Berbatov, Hernandez...

Just hope they don't try and injure our young lads, the dirty bastards.
