Emery clearly doesn't value the domestic cups so 100% no to drawing small Heath or Sandwell. Solihull Moors away would be good (assuming they win tomorrow)

They'd get 45% of your money. No thank you.

He might start to take it seriously if we stay mid-table or below, who knows.

maybe , since that weakened team lost to Palace the season has taken a negative turn . Momentum should not be underestimated .

Blackpool away, a nice trip to the seaside.
Well, we've got them in the EFL Trophy on the 17th of December.

When we played them at their place in the League Cup in 1970 we were a few minutes late getting in. It was packed but we saw an oddly vacant spot right down the front. We made our way there and spent the rest of the game standing in four inches of water. We got wet as well.
