    Home tie - yep
    One of the big boys or a so called minnow ???
    Win next game and we are one win away from a semi final !!

    Sounds easy when you put it like that.

    I will take an easy home win against possibly man united reserves and then a thumping victory against another minnow.

    Wembley .... dare to dream folks. or maybe not!!!!

    Meaningless?

    I wouldn't mind a trip to Wembley and Europe next season - not going to get it from the league if we are realistic.

    Yeah I think we now take it seriously - only 4 games from winning it so not massive extra pressure and I'd say it's clear we aren't going down or finishing in Europa places so why the hell not?

    Just goto Spurs away <ok>

    Lets hope that Leeds are more interested in gaining promotion, cause if they put a strong team up, then they'll probably beat us.

    We put a weakened side out against Burnley. I'd imagine it'd be pretty much the same team

    Both sides will make 8-9 changes again which is a shame but both sides have bigger fish to fry in the league
    We should still have enough to turn them over but not if we play like we did in the first half last night v Liverpool lol.
    Still..... win this tie and your in the last 8. Then suddenly people become interested!!

    Leicester finished a little above Burnley last year but have started the season off worse. Should be an easy win for our second string

    Excellent, haven't had anyone on here talking bollocks for ages. By the time the tie comes round we will both be about 10th.

    Which division are Leeds United in these days? Are they still based in Yorkshire?

    The only way is up ... for you lot. In contrast, we've reached the top and had to stop, and that's what's troubling me <laugh>

    I predict we'll be in the Premier League and you'll be in the Championship after your board sell off all of your decent players in Jan.

    That's good that you see the humour in the last decade or so of your history - doing a Leeds has even got it's own wikipedia page https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Doing_a_Leeds

    Really pleased with the draw, I have missed playing Leeds and don't have any issue with them. Maybe I'm too young for the dirty Leeds stuff and tbf their fans have stuck by them in the bad years.
    Some great memories of matches with them such as Nige heading in along with Stevie Howard and Nalis' belter when we both went down.
    Also provides a great chance to get through to the last 8 but we will need to take them seriously!
