Not a bad draw. Incentive for us and for Brentford.

Unlike Fulham and Sunderland, it looks like Brentford are taking the cup seriously, which is bad news for us.

Will be a tight game I think.

Would have kept Hermansen in goal unless he's injured which I haven't seen mentioned he is anywhere.

Hope Pablo is properly recovered. Can't have him break down.

In Stratford now and looking forward to this

I've had a fiver on us to win 3.2 on Betfair at 34s.

I will also have my usual tenner on Soucek if he is playing.

Not sure about this one.
Don't know about you, but when playing in the back garden I always scored the winning goal in a cup final for West Ham. Fuck Champions league, the cup was the one my generation dreamed of.

Its just a chance to play a few younsters nowadays. Such a shame

23% chance (the maths liklihood) or 100% chance (the sponsor's paid for it liklihood).
True its for the SE Asian and Middle East cable TV channels

I'd rather a player wasn't rushed back. That's happened too many times with us, with bad consequences.

Players get injured in warm ups, training or down the pub (Andy Carroll)
If players have a knock or a bit of an injury then leave them out by all means but if they are ready to go play them 
Man City usually turns out to be a more ‘meaningless’ game every season to be honest

I hope he starts, then we can hook him if he needs it. I do t like it when we bring on players who are returning from injury because if they're not quite ready or get a knock you either have to sub the sub back off or leave him on to make it worse.

But yeah, if Pablo has a half in him I'd like to see him start.
