Can't go. Does anyone know if I can use my freebie at another home cup game, or does it have to be this one?
Go with this one don't chance your luck.
I am taking this one as might end up with no freebie.

Literally can't go! I'm on holiday in Italy that week!
☹️Never mind we will beat Wigan and hopefully have another home tie.

Yes it's boring but it's winnable with a second string team which is the main thing.

Considering the struggles that the TO are having dealing with basic ticketing, I can't see them offering the option of delaying use the freebie until a later round

I can't believe anyone would choose a trip to Italy instead of Wigan at home in the second round of the LC.

I know! So disappointed to be missing the game. The holiday was booked ages ago. Had I known I would never have agreed to the trip. ;-)

Don't worry, for just £3 you can watch it on AVTV Live (as long as Sky don't pick it up, in which case you can watch it down the taverna!).

Surely we are safe from TV coverage this time? I fancy Blackburn v Burnley and Accrington Stanley v Albion will be chosen.

Why is John Salako doing a big "oooooooooooh" after he draws every single home or away ball?

It was very disturbing, glad it wasn't just me who noticed it!

I think to ensure that there were an even number of Northern and Southern teams in both seeded and unseeded pots.

Because as football clubs, they are both below us.

"Rochdale, and they're.......away.......oooooooooooooooooooh!"

It was like he'd just drawn the US away at North Korea.

Slightly concerned that "why are Newport in the Northern Section?" might be the new "why didn't Barry take the penalty?"

About time we had a new question about a Welsh town.
