Leicester's got more money than sense...now. Of course it was thanks to Leicester that the FL introduced the 10 point deduction after they went into admin just after their new Crisp Bowl was built, meaning they paid very little for their new ground via the CVA.
Leicester used to play at the crisp bowl they now play at the nut (KP) bowl. I think they clearly like piss flavoured snacks. Don't care who we play both are nothing teams who we could beat with our under 16s.

Would like it to be Forest who go through as half of my family are Forest season ticket holders. They are not very confident but I think they will sneak through as they are due a bit of luck. I'll probably stay in Nottingham that weekend either way.

You aren't the person who got engaged at the 7-1 game are you?

No I remember that though, it was as cringe worthy as iffy's suit. Me and my lad enjoyed the game but not having to spend the weekend in a house full of Forest fans !

I don't think the Forest fans knew what to do when we celebrated our goal. If I remember rightly we were 6-0 down at the time.

Think your right.I Remember our fans chanting " easy,easy....." to be fair the Forest fans who I spoke to that evening said the Swindon fans were brilliant considering. We did beat them in our home game though 2-1 think they scored all three goals?

would imagine most of our players just wanted to get off the pitch and go and join Iffil in the bar! you could see he was never going to last the half as Tyson was taking the piss time after time.

At the moment Forest would defiantly be beatable at their place. The City ground has nearly always been their fortress but this season nothing is going right for them and if they do knock out Leicester we could go there and cause another upset, or at least keep it below seven. Think Leicester would be much more difficult and a less glamourous tie for us.

From what I've read there were more Leicester fans than Forest fans at the game on Saturday, so I don't imagine they would get many if we played them.

That 7-1 was the main event on my stag weekend. About 20 of us there that day...and for about 13 or 14, it was the first (and last) time they'd been to a Swindon game. Some of them still talk about the game to this day. Bastards.

8000 Leicester, just over 10000 Forest, were we not so fed up with the way we're being ran there'd have been 5000 Leicester and over 20000 Forest. If we play you you'll get as many tickets as you want / need.
