Really? how? City would, imho score double figures against our current defensive unit. They regularly scored 5 against the old guard.

I think with our more possession approach, where before we launched it up field and it came straight back at us, perhaps we might not be under the cosh as much but I do take your point about the defensive frailty

A Prem team at home straight off the back of the World Cup break wouldn't be a disaster. Anyone but B******s, City and Liverpool for me.

Let's try it with a passing side like Brighton first.

Quite nauseating the sky coverage every time United win a game. Get the green and gold scarves put away for a few weeks.

Well at least it's not City, depends how strong a side Utd field, but their form isn't great this season, so it's a tie we've got a chance in I'd say.

It’s usually 10% of capacity.

Great draw for VK and our new signings. They will love the chance to match themselves v Man U and play at OT. Nothing to lose for us. Bet THB will love it aswell

Every chance we could be facing a weakened side with the game coming straight after the World cup. Should still take a decent following if tickets are sensibly priced.

I might be in the minority but I think it’s a great draw. Full away end, trip to Old Trafford, see where our teams at and I recon Manure will be rusty after the World Cup and missing their star players so a chance of a result as well.

Possible but I wouldn't say guaranteed.

Telly games likely to be.

Charlton-Brighton.

City-Liverpool.

Rovers-Forest

MK Dons-Leicester

No idea how many games they can air at this stage, but those are the 4 that catch my eye.
