It almost looks as if it's gonna be fixed for a Pompey Sunderland final.... I'm not cynical or anything like that, but they're pretty close to the final they would have dreamed about at the start.... Two leg semi finals, nothing is certain. Ignore! Just looked up on the EFL website. One game only semi finals.

Two leg semi finals, nothing is certain. Semi's are now just the one leg. How come Man C U21's can only play away from home when the first team can't at home mid week every week? Probably because Man city don't want to let their boys play in the main stadium. I know they play in a small stadium alongside the Eitihad or whatever it's called and perhaps they are not allowed by the EFL to play these games there. It would appear they can do what they want as regards giving up home advantage.

Good draw for us.
Providing both teams get there, us vs Sunderland at Wembley would be the best possible final.

They hadn't won F all until a few years ago and now refuse to play EFL competition in their stadium. W4nk3rs.

Reading between the lines, I feel that you probably don't like this competition.
Well done, Jock - bless your hairy sporran!

No, Chelsea lost at Stamford bridge last night to Peterborough, we won at Swansea and I seem to remember West Ham played at home in the knockout stage. Seems like more a case of Man city doing what they want to me.

OK, have now done research on this All under 21 sides had to play their group stage matches away from home. Then for all other rounds the first team out of the hat plays at home.

But they clearly stated before the draw Man C would play away regardless, I assume Guardiola doesn't want his players playing in front of a couple of home fans, still can't see why they let one club bend the rules although, hopefully, they'll now lose.

I hope we go all the way and win the tournament for the sake of the prize money. However I think it would be unfortunate that it would probably go down as the clubs best major honour at a time when most people hate the competition.
