I had a feeling we'd get some injuries tonight, mainly cos it bad weather in the south west, just had a hunch someone would get a whack or an awkward fall
Hopefully neither is a bad injury, Drury normally in the past has healed well enough. It serves the point that a cup run is always going to be a distraction/burden on your league form
It is pretty amazing how many championship sides have been ditched out of the cup though, I can't believe it isn't a coincedence. I can well imagine there's no bonus's for players winning a carling cup match, as the crowd levels can't surely warrant it, or afford it
It's pretty apparent that it's a pretty poor trophy, which definitely doesn't deserve european place (not sure if it still carries one)
