Will they not get a day off like our lads?

Phenomenal effort from all involved. Worst five minutes of my life in injury time. Bavs was just inspired reminiscent of last season form before injury.

Yes he's prone to the odd error...but if he wasn't he wouldn't be playing for us. The unsighted one he flicked round the post was sensational.

"About" 12.30, it being Sky ......... Being drawn by one of the Nevilles and someone else who has nothing much to do in the daytime Can't remember who .....

All the Big Boys (except those involved in Europe) come in at this stage

With our luck, we'll get Stevenage or Morecambe

Away

PS games to be played w/c 26th August

To be honest I think a maverick keeper who has games like that is worth more points over a season than a solid shot stopper who doesn't make ricks but would possibly have shipped 4 or 5 last night.

Doubt it they'll be unseeded like us. We're going to get Yeovil

[Alvin the chipmunk]

Scratch That. Despite being Championship now the Glovers are still unseeded so we won't be left with a Tuesday night trip to deepest darkest Somerset.

We can get:

Everton, Liverpool, West Brom, West Ham United, Norwich City, Fulham, Stoke City, Southampton, Aston Villa, Newcastle United, Sunderland, Reading, QPR, Cardiff City, Hull City, Watford, Crystal Palace, Leicester City, Bolton Wanderers, Nottingham Forest, Charlton Athletic, Derby County, Burnley or Birmingham City.

Once tonight's results are known, one of Leeds United, Blackburn Rovers or Huddersfield Town will be added to that seeded list, with the priority given to each club in that order of merit - i.e. if Leeds were knocked out, then Blackburn would become the seeded club if they won their First Round tie.

Starngely, the only link to the draw seems to be the one on Yeovil's forum that Alvin has posted. It says the seeds have been published by the League and also says the draw is at 12:30 so, if anyone can confirm whether it's 12:30 or 1:30, please tell us!

Manchester United, Manchester City, Chelsea, Arsenal, Tottenham Hotspur, Swansea City and Wigan Athletic get byes.

Last night it was coming up as 1.30; today it seems to be "about" 12.30

We'll probably get Norwich or Reading away

[Alvin the chipmunk]

Burnley at the Turf please. Let's avenge what Bob The Butcher did.

[maccawozzagod]

Blackburn or Burnley must SURELY be due out of the hat for us!!!
