Brentford missing off your list

Hate regionalised draws.

[Brazilian Villain]

Derby at home please.

[cdbearsfan]

Would like Barrow at home, pretty sure I've never seen them.

[nordenvillain]

Rochdale been given W/O as Harrogate have Covid in the squad and there's not time to rearrange before the 2nd round date.

"The winner of the League Cup qualifies for the play-off round of the 2022/2023 UEFA Europa Conference".

That's an incentive to finish higher up the league and qualify for the UEFA Cup or the Champions League to avoid that nonsense.

[Demitri_C]

Why put league cup winners in the shit cup?

It should be carabao. Guess they trying ti turn this confernece cup into cup winners cup.

[Andy_Lochhead_in_the_air]

Hate regionalised draws.

I assume it's done to avoid say Plymouth and Barrow having to play each other mid week. Having said that the National League over the years has had many long distance fixtures which clubs have got on and dealt with.

[cdbearsfan]

Yeah, we aren't exactly Russia. And the draw halves our chances of playing a local team!

[ADVILLAFAN]

Rochdale been given W/O as Harrogate have Covid in the squad and there's not time to rearrange before the 2nd round date.

Chelsea v Rochdale in the 3rd Round then

[LeeB]

Yeah, we aren't exactly Russia. And the draw halves our chances of playing a local team!

Or a 'bye' as it's otherwise known.

[Footy-Vill]

Can get as big as 50/1 for Villa to win the cup.
Generally around 33/1 still OK before the draw...
