Who Do We Want In The Carabao Cup Then ?

I'd quite fancy Brentford - see what that Mepham guy is like.

Anybody at home

 

[GrahamH]

Anyone at home, the more opportunities to watch our Premier League (reserves) team the better.

 

[blandford_cherry]

This is a competition I think we really should take seriously this year. A home tie against any lower league opposition.

 

[SlowDownDerek]

Wimbledon or Forest Green away.

 

[Garbo]

....not bothered (just like Eddie)

 

[Grumpy G]

I think we need to start taking the FA cup a little more seriously before we can think about the League Cup.

 

[northstandmark]

Steve McManaman just cannot wait to draw out our number, look how excited he is

 

[AlGard]

Blimey. The are even doing the draw in an English TV studio around 7pm tomorrow.

Normal service for the 3rd round I expect with it being held live on the International Space Station.

Tbf we did fine in the league cup last year and went out fighting.

Both really, no excuses with our squad

Horrendous mix up with the Brentford keeper to gift Stoke their goal on Saturday. Would have been an OG if Afobe wasn't sniffing around

Trouble with this cup is that the quarter final is played just before Christmas during a month we play about 7 games. I know it’s the same for all teams but our players tend to run more per game than most and the timing is unwelcome. Hopefully a bigger squad means we are better placed this season but still a risk.

 

[afcb_rednblack]

Millwall away. Always a guaranteed win...

 

[stanthevan]

For personal reasons I would like Newport away. If we start with the 7 who were on the bench Saturday, we have to have half a chance.

 

[Sorry Roger]

Bristol Rovers for the half time entertainment

 

[NWCherries98]

We're in it it to win it. League 2 all the way please.

 

[rednblackexile]

I suspect this will be the first look we get at Rico and Lerma

people seem t forget we got to the quarter finals last season

I was gutted walking away from that game as I thought we were better than Chelsea on the night - luckily for us we had the chance to put it right a few months later and smash em up on their patch yet again.
