League Cup draw.

[Bobbin']

Forest Green at home tomorrow, probably try and leave work early to beat the queues.

 

[Etienne Vermeer]

We're at West Brom for the second time in three days. I don't care about the result.

 

[SoutheySWFC]

We've got Bury..... Or not

 

[JJH]

600 would be bloody good. We'll have about 3000.

We've sold just under 600, now confirmed POTD though. Not the worst, could've been better though.

 

[QPR_Matt]

Ticket sales are going well ... sold out one block. Only got SAR stand and Lower Loft open for fans and we've still only sold out 1 block.

Any idea why our game at yours on Saturday is all ticket?

All games at Ashton Gate are all ticket nowadays for away fans, to my knowledge we're the only club in the league who don't do POTD. It's at the request of the police which is ridiculous when you think of clubs that bring a few hundred here in midweek and the same rule applies.

We haven’t had POTD for home or away fans since we came up, just because the away section is quite small and there are some clubs with pretty large London fan bases.

Can’t remember if we change that for the early stages of the cups, but pretty sure they’re all all-ticket too.

That makes sense, especially for standing and overcrowding. At City it doesn't make sense (for playing us) as we won't get anywhere near selling out.

 

[Kenneth E End]

FYI there are no games available on ifollow tonight for both domestic and international viewers.

 

[SF_]

Mad defence tonight, even Eoin Doyle might score.

 

[Kenneth E End]

Luton make 11 changes from Saturday. Fine us...

James Shea, James Bree, Brendan Galloway, Lloyd Jones, Andrew Shinnie, Luke Berry, Izzy Brown, Luke Bolton, Harry Cornick, Elliot Lee, Kazenga LuaLua

 

[SF_]

Very easy so far despite eleven changes.

Thought we might be a bit disjointed.

2-0 - Green & Barkhuizen

 

[Kenneth E End]

Luton 3-0 Ipswich
Lloyd Jones, Elliot Lee (pen), Andrew Shinnie (FK)

 

[Super_horns]

Luton 3-0 Ipswich
Lloyd Jones, Elliot Lee (pen), Andrew Shinnie (FK)

Bound to get us ..

 

[KevinMcallister]

Thank fuck that sky loving is over bye Salford

 

[SF_]

Useless twats Blackpool have failed to make this draw interesting.

 

[Kenneth E End]

No... we're playing Cardiff away... again.

This season would've been the first we'd have been seeded under the old system for a long time. We've had no luck in the last two years when it’s reverted back to random. WBA away in R1 last year; Ipswich this year in R1 and now Cardiff. How about getting a Morecambe at home at some point?!

 

[Super_horns]

Forest v Derby won't be taken lightly ..

 

[PuB]

Thank fuck that sky loving is over bye Salford

From a Leeds fan?

Wow, now you know how the rest of us feel.

 

[MagpieBee]

Eurgh, we keep going out of this competition in the early rounds, was hoping we’d get one final good cup run at GP - will have to rely on the FA cup for that one now.

 

[Luke_1884]

Bielik is fucking class. Took the absolute piss at times tonight.

Bring on the red dogs.

 

[That Fat Centre Half]

We made 11 changes and Ipswich 10 so basically b team v b team but we played very well tonight and looked very comfortable throughout.

Brown looked absolutely class, ran the game from midfield. Some of his passing and vision to see those passes was top notch and way above what we have in the squad. Another who impressed was Lloyd Jones, looked really assured for a player who has barely played for us for 2 years. Bolton looked a decent option at right back.

Not a truely meaningful game but good to see us get a win on the board for the season and play very well in the process.

Only slight negative was that despite us playing Galloway still managed to have a bit of a shocker of a game. Looked well out of place throughout.

 

[Etienne Vermeer]

Oxford away, what a prize that is.

 

[QPR_Matt]

Bit of a crazy game at QPR. 3-3 with penalties going to sudden death. I didn't go so can't really comment to much but we made a whole host of changes. Expect a tighter game at City on Saturday, no doubt they'll go back to their first 11 again.

Portsmouth at home in the next round. I might go to it depending on pricing. We had them in the FA cup last year so bit of a shame we have them again so soon.

 

[SF_]

Guessing Rafferty will have to play again and Browne might be at right back to give Fisher a break, wholesale changes bar those two.

Ripley
Browne, Storey, Huntington, Rafferty
Ledson, Bayliss
Green, Potts, Harrop
Barkhuizen

​

 

[Liam_SWFC]

We're at Rotherham after getting a free pass because of Bury, would like to win because their fans do my head in and a good cup run would be nice, be some changes as you'd expect but after the performance yesterday will be a good chance for some of them to make a case for starting next Saturday. Definitely rest Westwood, Lee, Hutchinson and Fletcher for this one.

Dawson

Iorfa
Lees
Bates
Fox

Luongo
Pelupessy
Bannan

Forestieri
Rhodes
Reach

Subs- Westwood, Odubajo, Borner, Hutchinson, Murphy, Harris, Nuhiu

Rotherham United 0-2 Wednesday
Rhodes 60'
Forestieri 70'

 

[KevinMcallister]

I fancy our 2nd team to beat stoke

Nice to call your 2nd team with helder Costa and nketiah and shackleton and Clarke

Ripley
Browne, Storey, Huntington, Rafferty
Ledson, Bayliss
Green, Potts, Harrop
Barkhuizen

Yep I imagine that will be the team but I've been completely wrong the last two games so who knows. If I was being pedantic then I'd point out that Storey will play on the left side, but I won't do that!

Going tonight because it's only £5, hope we win but not particularly arsed either way.

Think i'll go on as well, only to see how Bayliss & Green get on really.

I'm sure when Storey and Huntington played together it was Hunts on the left? but I suppose that's when Storey was just being introduced. Is Hunts even alive? was injured for the Bradford game.

Yeah Hunts used to play on the left until the Doncaster game where he got raped by Wilks. In pre-season this year he played on the right and Storey on the left, funny that he's now less trusted than a 21 year old.

No idea, I'd have loaned him out tbh.
