Carabao Cup draw brings North London to the Hammers


At the end of a memorable day we have another magical moment to record.

The Irons have drawn Spurs at home in the fourth round of the Carabao Cup as Manuel Pellegrini looks to recapture the first trophy he won at Manchester City .

Our number 15 ball came out first ahead of Spurs to ensure we have another emotional roller coaster night on our hands at the stadium.

Loving it!

  1. There isn’t an available date midweek at all.
    International,CL,PL games all have it filled.
    Something has to give …
    Spurs can’t play at Wembley over the weekend so that fixture has to stick.
    It looks like the Wednesday or possibly Thursday.
    We could play on the Sunday but Spurs probably can’t as they play CL on the Tuesday.
    Whatever Spurs will be playing two games in 3 days.
    Mon,Wed Sat ,Tue 4 in 8 days.
    They will definitely not be putting out their A team against us.
