    Yes.

    Spurs - Burnley
    Derby - Man Utd

    First legs played 6/7th Jan, 2nd legs played 20/21st.

    Most likely Spurs vs Burnley will be Tues the 6th as United play Southampton in the FA Cup the preceding Sunday, so Derby vs United to play 7th.

    Return legs will be reversed, not least because Spurs play Pompey on the preceding Sunday, so United game on Tuesday and Spurs on Wednesday.

    I might be wrong though.

    So the draw for the final is Tottenham Vs Man United ;)

    Fulham, Chelsea, Arsenal: all London clubs, all beaten by Burnely...;)

    Plus United may not want to reach the final, as it will mean at least one more game needs to be rearranged.

    Derby - Burnley it is so!!!

    all Burnley and Derby fans in existence would want to see their team in a cup final. There would be a higher chance of empty seats in a United/Spurs final tbh.

    Guaranteed full-house for Burnley/Derby

    I know,i was just kidding,i was watching championship play off and it was something amazing to see full Wembley when teams from 2nd league are playing.

    Although it wouldnt be something special for us fans to watch over tv,i wouldnt be impressed with them to watch

    I really hope at least one of the lower leaguers makes the final.

    And from a Goon perspective that would be every team except United, right? ;)

    And hope its against Utd, cos they guaranteed European football next season, so it'd be one of them to get it. Imagine...a wet Thursday evening at Turf Moor:D

    League Cup runners-up get nada, spot reverts to league. They'd need to win (though they'd have a good shout all the same)

    Ah that sucks. Is it the same with the FA cup then? Although might give Hull a chance themselves, or even Fulham.

    FA Cup runners-up get into Europe if winner already qualified, unless they are Welsh...;)

    Might have changed since last season though.

    Ah right, cheers for that. That's prob why I thought it was the same for the League Cup.

    FA will disqualify United coz Vidic was staring at one fan with mean look in his eyes during the game,Spurs coz Pavlyuchenko was seen how drinks vodka on the street and Derby coz their crest offends animals,Torquay United gets wild card and win the title in dramatic finish!:eek:
