Notts County (H) Tuesday 25.8.15 7.45pm KO Pre-Match Thread

I've seen us play three of your list, you may have forgotten them seeing as you don't miss many.

I think Peterborough was the six-nil League Cup win when Draper either scored or set up a vaguely controversial flicked up free kick. Burton we played in a friendly might have been Lambert's first game. Preston we hammered five-nil, all five goals were screamers including a couple of typical Hitzlsperger smashes.

I remember that Peterborough game, they had 2 sent off, at least one was harsh iirc, and some of there fans got a bit upset as the goals went in, and the red cards, and a few tried a mini pitch invasion. The free kick was a cracker. 95/96, so a good omen if we draw them again. We only drew the second leg 1-1 though so home draw please.

We played Rotherham as recently as this time two years ago - that game when Delph scored a brilliant volley following one of the best moves I'd seen us put together in years.

Ah yeah. Remember the game. Don't remember TFLP's goal though but recall that we won fairly easily after an unconvincing start. Their manager looked even fatter in real life than he does on the telly.

I was stupid enough to do the away leg of the Peterborough match as well.

Not sure if anyone has said it but "This is our cup..... the League Cup is ours"

[silhillvilla]

Well it will be the 20th anniversary year of when we last won it so why not.

The teams I've never seen us play
Carlisle
Hartlepool
Barnet
MK Dons
Peterborough
Gillingham
Rochdale
Rotherham
Bury
York
Burton
Preston

I've seen us play the first two on that list on the way to LC finals. 70/71 we beat Carlisle at home in R4. 74/5 we were away to Hartlepool in R4. I remember going on the travellers club coach and the coach door was parked right next to the turnstile and we were filed straight in and out after the game. Never been there since. I must visit Hartlepool again and see what the town is like in case I missed anything.

As I recall, the biggest cheer of the night was when the other scores were being announced and Man U had lost 3-0 at home to York.

Lashed it into the bottom corner with his tail didn't he?

[Chico Hamilton III]

Man U had lost 3-0 at home to York

Alan Little was York's manager at the time?

[Pat McMahon]

Alan Little was York's manager at the time?

Judging by that result he must have been Man U's keeper at the time

[darren woolley]

Walsall at home please.
