sorry didnt mean to post this in here

I love how Shrewsbury are a NW club and Barnet and AFC Wimbledon SW clubs!

The SE section does look tougher than a couple of the others. A bit of an unexciting draw, bar the Millwall v Peterborough tie.

 

[WSBee]

What a load of shite.

 

[BeeArmy]

Gutted that we have been put in the south west.

 

[hellogregory]

Port Vale away. What an absolutely wank draw.

 

[BeeArmy]

Cant see many going.

 

[mowgli]

Got a bye, one less game to get injuries and suspensions i suppose, i fucking despise the painting by numbers cup!

 

[Kenneth E End]

Are the byes drawn completely at random? Personally, I think that it should be slightly pre-conceived that a team cannot have a bye two seasons in a row or the top 16 clubs in League 1 should be automatically put through.

We had a great chance of picking up quite a spicy tie (Peterborough, Luton, Orient and Millwall, plus Northampton I'd say) and we got a very uninspiring game against Dagenham. Only saving grace is that it's at home so we have a reasonable chance of progressing.

 

[Richard Cranium]

We get Notts again. Might just about take 1000 with us playing them this Friday and having drawn them last season in this. It would be nice to have ago at this and hopefully get a run in it but I can't see it.

Agreed. You got Dagenham and we got pissing Col U. I'll still probably go though.

Drawn away in a cup.... Again. Yawn.

That's 9 in a row

 

[Glasshalffullpools]

Hartlepool have drawn Sheffield U ..... again !! I say Sheffield U but it's normally Sheffield U reserves they send up

 

[JJ1532]

a team cannot have a bye two seasons in a row

Thats how the byes are handed out. So it is usually fair.

How do you work that out, doesn't Concord at home and Chesterfield at home count?

 

[The Terminator]

I've worked out that byes come every 6 years or so. Our last one was 3 years ago, so we have another one in 3 years!

Luton away for us, at least its easy to get to and from.
