BlueLion. 21,491 Posted December 1, 2007 Author Share Posted December 1, 2007 I'd like a fairly easy game because this will be in the period of the ACoN, so a League 2 side at the Bridge is much welcomed Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BlueLion. 21,491 Posted December 1, 2007 Author Share Posted December 1, 2007 Not necessarilly, lower league opposition outnumber Premier League heavily at this stage, and there is an even chance of getting a tie at Stamford Bridge. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ollie 4,400 Posted December 2, 2007 Share Posted December 2, 2007 thats a great draw, aint seem them for a while. brings back memories of when i first got into watching Chelsea. We had some good clashes with QPR in the early prem days. I remember watching us knocking them out away in 95/96 with a furlong winner in our gray and orange lol. I'll try and go to this. QPR fans are good supporters, ive known a few down the years. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
