West Ham vs Millwall!

Quote:

West Ham United will play Millwall in the 2009/10 Carling Cup second round with the match provisionally scheduled to be played on Wednesday 26 August.
Gianfranco Zola's team, along with a dozen other top-flight sides, join the competition at this stage with the first round having concluded on Wednesday night. Last season, in Zola's second match in charge, the Hammers were knocked out in the third round after a 1-0 defeat by Watford. whufc.com will confirm the date, kick-off time and ticket news as soon as available.
The clubs have never met in the League Cup before with 22 league encounters and one FA Cup tie. West Ham have won eight and Millwall five. The most recent meeting was a 1-1 draw in the Championship back on 16 April 2005 when Marlon Harewood equalised after an early Barry Hayles strike.
West Ham were 4-1 winners against Macclesfield Town in last year's second round, but only after Lee Bowyer forced extra time with a late equaliser. Carlton Cole, Zavon Hines and Kyel Reid all then struck during the additional 30 minutes to ensure the club's progress.
The club have twice reached the League Cup final but have never triumphed, losing in 1966 and 1981 to West Bromwich Albion and Liverpool respectively. This year's final will be staged at Wembley on Sunday 28 February 2010.

West Ham Home Match.

If I'm honest, no-one on this forum cares about this fixture other than yourself. However, this can easily be turned into a League Cup thread so we have Spurs @ home.

This is gonna be like Green Street all over again! haha, awesome, hope it's live on tele, but it'll probably be played very earlier in the day to avoid most trouble. (like they do with Wolves v West Brom matches, haha, always played on a sunday at 11:45, ridiculous I say.)

All police leave has been canceled, this is going to be big. Not that we're putting football violence in glory or anything but whose the only club to do over Millwall on their home turf?

I wouldn't know, Minstrels, who was it? let me guess, the Man City?
