God no. We have a history of starting slowly and it would be beyond awful if we put out a 2nd string side and lost to their U-21's

 

[Bell4]

Leeds at home - come on!!!!

 

[DifferentClass]

Probably end up being Hollywood FC... again.

 

[BerksBlade]

Probably get a plum tie like Blackburn or Preston away

 

[jt64]

Leeds at home - come on!!!!

If we draw Leeds at home I'll pay you out personally

 

[CPB]

Birmingham City away and an early exit.

 

[Bell4]

If we draw Leeds at home I'll pay you out personally

or away - i don't care

 

[jt64]

or away - i don't care

The last time I checked:

a) all Premier League teams got a bye to round two, or round three if in Europe
b) Leeds got promoted

If either of those have changed and I've not noticed then it's my bad, but if not, the chances of us drawing Leeds wherever are in the same ballpark as Kieffer Moore winning the Ballon d'Or

 

[Arcadia Blade]

Doncaster Rovers at Home

 

[s20Blade]

Can't we just donate our place to a grass roots team?

 

[Blade82]

New away ground - Accrington, Barrow, Lincoln, Mansfield or Salford

 

[Houston_Blade]

Would love a cup run, hopefully Selles doesn’t toss it off like the last bloke did.

I Dont want a home match where half the ground is shut , so Donny Millers or Spireites away for me . Nice friendly local matches.

 

[S64 Blade]

New away ground - Accrington, Barrow, Lincoln, Mansfield or Salford

It’ll be someone at home though, like usual.

 

[COME BACK CHED]

No Too much Radiation up there

They're called bucket hats now.

 

[BladeByChoice]

Really wasn't a fan of the silverware was he, miss Hekky for that, Man City semi was a great day out, Hull was better.

As long as it's nae fucker with a name like Max bloody Power playing in it... still haunts me to this day.

I'm guessing Wycombe at home.

 

[Badger Blade]

When’s the draw?

4.30 - we're ball number 28

 

[jt64]

About 20 minutes

league cup is weird, because i remember our last league cup run 2015. you spent the 1st 3rd rounds treating like in season friendlies. resting players & having a look at your squad players, if you win great we all love winning games of football but if you no big deal. then youve sleepwalked into the 4th round & realised your 90 mins from being in the last 8. it suddenly gets very serious

on who id like donny or Chesterfield away or Wednesday at home

Agreed although personally I disagree with the format of when teams drop into the competition and just for being in the PL you get a bye to the 2nd round, is crazy since you play more games in the Championship however personally if they were to revamp any competition, I would like it to be that one and not have any European spot for the winners but remove the Premier League clubs completely still have the final at Wembley in March. It would give the EFL it's own proper competition drop the EFL Trophy too. Realistically most PL clubs can put out their reserves until at least the quarters and some be "firing on 4 fronts"
