Yes that’s what I was thinking, I’d forgotten how stressful a cup draw is once you’re a few rounds in. I was hoping a lot of the replays would make use of the new rule that allows you to play it in the following week but so far I can only see Birmingham v Blackburn taking it up.

bcfcredandwhite Posted January 30, 2023 Share Posted January 30, 2023 (edited) I'm genuinely torn here. I love a good cup run and the chance to play against some top drawer opposition. However, I am concerned that a cup run could distract us from our most important task of staying in the Championship. The last time we had a good cup run it coincided with our (at the time) decent league form fizzling out. Ok, different manager, different players, different times - but it does happen - too often to too many sides for us to ignore it. Then there's the risk of cards, bans, injuries - or just simple burn-out, which we could do without. If we were comfortable mid-table I'd say go for it with everything we've got - but we are only just above the drop zone and avoiding relegation must be our primary focus. I just have nightmares about Bell, Max or Wells picking up long term injuries playing Wrexham on a wet midweek night in Wales, simply because we hope to meet a top 4 Prem side in the following round Edited January 30, 2023 by bcfcredandwhite Add words Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Robin101 Posted January 30, 2023 Share Posted January 30, 2023 TBH, most potential ties are not too bad. It's either going to be winnable (though we'd not necessarily be favourites) or a good day out vs a big team.
