I'm a bit curious how they will do the League Cup draw tonight as I understand that the 2nd round is still seeded. If Derby had won then no doubt they would be seeded but if we'd won we wouldn't, so will Derby or Grimsby be in the seeded or unseeded pot tonight.

Now, I'm not sure if I'm imagining this or not but I think there was a similar situation a couple of years back and they actually did 2 draws as to who plays who depending on who wins the tie.

Anyone else remember something like that or have I just made that up?

If that's the case then that's totally wrong in my opinion.

Means we can't draw a big seeded team at home if we were to beat Derby.

No but it means we can draw Barnet, beat them and get drawn away at Anfield in the next round.


I've wasted my life in black and white, a pathetic act for a worthless cause

I've only been to Anfield the once. Didn't like it at all (and not just because we lost 5-0).

More fans went to that game, than the two games at Wembley in 2015/16 promotion season. Town fans in every stand, including the Kop, never seen anything like that since.  
Seem to remember lots of fans never got in and went to the Everton game, I think they were playing Aldershot.

Was that when Kenny Dogfish and Jimmy Plaice, among others, were playing.
