    The cash out doesn't actually need to be offered by the bookies - I can go to betfair and lay the bet off. My break-even odds in that scenario are literally 18/1. There's no way they wouldn't drop way below that. (I could lay off £40 at 17/1 right now, albeit they'd charge me 5%, so it's not profitable.)

    I didn't realise you were bringing another bookie and laying it off into the mix. Go for it. Let us know how it goes.

    I don't want any of our first first teamers anywhere near this match as the Foolham game is more important currently.

    I'm torn on this. Yes, we want to finish as high as possible in the league, but this is probably our best chance of cup success in years.
    A misfiring Citeh and sh!te United are the only teams in the last 16 to have won the competition in the last 40-odd years (since Ipswich in 1978 I think).

    If our reserves including Yates, The Dom, Jota Silva cannot beat an Exeter team who haven't won in 9 then we really don't deserve to be in the cup. And I've had a cheeky Shady on us winning the cup at 20/1 ew.

    Morato on the bench. So 3 at the back for Fulham?

    Definitely the team I would have picked. Nuno is a genius..

    Chicago: Giving credit where credit is due.

    Keeping it exciting. I am all for that. Eric needs to get his self together though.

    Chicago: All for the thrill of the cup.

    Or Murillo is more injured than they were letting on.

    Woot!
    Having spent 15 minutes seeing who could pass the ball straight to Harper the most down the right going left seemed smart.

    Actually lovely work by Sosa. 1-1. Nice pass by sangria.

    Chicago: Not remotely stressed.

    Good goal - ball by Sangare and strength by Sosa.
