Carabao Cup 2025/26 - 3rd Round Brentford (a)

[Brazilian Villain]

Deflating draw, but Saturdays result was the first time we’ve lost to them in 7 attempts.
Feck em.

Just need to win, and get Sheff Weds or Grimsby in the next round.

Hope we get better luck in Friday's draw.

[Martyn Smith]

Hoping it'll be on the Wed. Want to go and see the U21's at Crawley the Tue night

[ChicagoLion]

What a horrible draw.

[andyh]

Rubbish, uninspiring draw, although someone has to play them I suppose.
4th priority so expect a rookie team and early exit.

Yep, we don’t have the squad to cope with this competition.

[Duncan Shaw]

Can we even field a rookie team?

[darren woolley]

Not the best draw we could have had.

[Duncan Shaw]

I know we have a bit of a mentality that everything/everyone is against us, but that draw doesn't really do anything to dispel it does it?

But in our last cup draw we got the lowest ranked team we could have got. In the round before that we got the only remaining team that wasn't in the Premier League and the round before that we got League One-bound Cardiff at home. We've had plenty of years of shit draws, but don't think we can complain about 2025 in that respect.

That is a very fair point.  The fates conspired to give us the best chance of winning the cup, only for us to Villa it up!!
