Anyway, I think we've got a tough draw - one of the toughest we could've had.

I really would not wish for our wonderfull game to be subject to such ungentlemanly conduct.
The exact draw was on more than one website earlier than 6.45pm. The first I heard of the rumours were at about 4pm when I read it on redvee. It was also posted on TotalRL.com at 12.30pm with the exact same draw. That's more than a coincidence and is in the thousands to 1 to guess correctly. I'm not suggesting a fix, but to suggest it's "live" is deceiving and can bring about conspiracy thoughts. It certainly looks unprofessional and dodgy. Anyway, I think we've got a tough draw - one of the toughest we could've had.
Looking forward to the clash, long live the Red V.
