As there were rumours that we were close to FFP limits in the summer, a two legged semi final, if we got there, could free up funds for the January transfer window. Will we play the first team at Port Vale?
 
Today I'm in a good mood. with the results of the draw.
So I want to sing this song actually it's a Thai song. But I will translate it into English for you.
My mother really likes this song. Even though she are close to 80 years old.
Song name: Crazy
Sung by: Carabao Band
That's right, it's the same name as the sponsor of EFL Cup.
And the singer of this song also hold shares in this company.

Not an aristocrat, red-footed, walks on its side.
Not a criminal on the silver screen. You have to walk with your head tilted.
I had a dream, one day, that the snacks were wrapped.
Five baht is enough. Two packs of ten baht.
Prevent tight stomachs The skin in the eyes is loose.

There is a house with a red roof that has been there for a long time.
It is a hospital for brain symptoms.
Still happy every day by looking away.
Squatting, clinging to the fence, cars are everywhere.
Fast, busy, all over scrape along the road.

Then one day it came to evening.
I go for a walk perched on a fence
Saw a car with a broken tire and a scared young woman.
I stood smiling at the edge of the fence.
Watch her change the tire (the tire is broken)
She was flustered and accidentally kicked a nut down the pipe.
All that's left is the wheels, replacing the wheels, missing the nuts that hold them tight.
From anxiety and fear to resentment
Shouting
Loud noise
Resentful for looking at your face
Why are you smiling, you idiot?

I'm crazy because I'm insane.
Not a bad person I have a bad conscience
I'm a crazy person, not a bad person.
I'm out of my mind, I'm crazy.
Crazy still helps tell her to calm down.
The nut I saw There are also three wheels.
Take off one wheel at a time. Put it on and go on.
Her voice was crying..
Why do they say I'm a crazy person.

I'm not very good like you, so I have to stay on the fence.
I don't have much money, so I'm miserable.
My consciousness is not good, no problem.
That's right, he's a crazy person. Everyone says he's crazy.
If you're crazy, you're crazy.
Even though it's crazy, it's not stupid.

Hopefully by then, it might be difficult to pick a first team as Rogers, Silvera and Lathe are improving. Would like to see Dieng back for that match though.

We definitely lose something without Dieng in the team, we don’t counter quick enough and look a lot more pedestrian.

I'll be very disappointed if we don't play our strongest team. This is a massive opportunity but we shouldn't take Port Vale lightly. They'll fancy their chances of beating us.

Indeed. Remember when we played Cardiff in the quarter final of the FA Cup and most people thought it was a safe passage to the semi and they came here and did us over. Underestimate Port Vale at our peril.

Aye.

If we lose I wonder if that will automatically make Carrick one of the worst Boro managers of all time🤔

Cardiff was incredibly annoying and a missed opportunity but the way some go on about it you'd think no other team in the history of sport have ever suffered an upset before.

As you say you can't underestimate any side. It's a far bigger game for them than it is for us. Practically a cup final. Going to be very tough.
 
One game at a time, definitely.

They’ll be delighted with the easier draw, especially knowing that we’ll fill our allocation, and feel optimistic about the chance of a big name in the semis.

There’s a game of football to be played yet…
 
Speaking of underestimating teams, look what happened last night in the German DFB Cup when Bayern Munich took on Third-tier Saarbrücken. They left Harry Kane on the bench.

Newport stands out for me (FA Cup), messed it up at home and then Gestede possibly put in his worst performance in a boro shirt in the replay

What if its us that stand between the Mags and a second sucessive League Cup Final appearance?

Theyll think they have a free pass to the final

To be fair they pretty much would. Watching them last night they're streets apart from us.
