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

[Martyn Smith]

Why is it taking so long to confirm the dates for the R3 ties?...I know, TV, yeah, but they've had over 48 hrs now...

[cdbearsfan]

Probably waiting to have European ties confirmed first.

Probably waiting to have European ties confirmed first.

Ok they're done now...and still radio silence...

[cdbearsfan]

It was confirmed five days after the draw last time. It'll be today or in the next few days I imagine.

Game is Tuesday 16th September KO 8pm, live on Sky

[cdbearsfan]

Glad we are on but that's a dreadful pick by Sky.

[PeterWithesShin]

They've picked it as there's a potential shock, us scoring.

[cdbearsfan]

Possible we might score one if we can take it to penalties, I suppose.

[Martyn Smith]

Ah for goodness sake, why is it on the same night as the U21s Vertu Trophy match?

[cdbearsfan]

Checked last season's fixtures and Everton, Fulham and Chelsea all had first team games the same day as their under-21s played in the Leyland Daf, so it doesn't look like they will move the fixture. Sorry 😕.

They're showing all the games aren't they?
