What a ludicrous part of the draw that was.

I didn't quite get it, and didn't see it, but have we already been drawn to be home or away? And if so how was it decided. I get the need to keep us from facing the CL clubs because of fixture congestion, but how did it work?

They just drew 8 anonymous home or away balls out.

They did it last year IIRC. Those are placeholders for whether the kept back team is playing home or away being as that can't be decided as normal draw out first.

Home against Grimsby would do.

It's still on.

Sky

I’m watching Sky. It’s not on the channels the live matches were on, or Sky Sports News. Unless I’m early?

If we (ball 2) is drawn out anywhere but fourth, 7th or 8th, we are playing away. Those three are the home spots.

Note: we can still draw Palace as Conference League doesn’t start until October so they're not seeded.
