[Dick Knights Mumm]

Be great to get a big club like Southend.

 

[saafend_seagull]

or colchester

 

[seagulls4ever]

This seeded crap is bollocks, all it does is benefit the better teams, meaning that the smaller teams have less chance to progress through the rounds and therefore less chance of picking up some much needed revenue on their way.

*chuckle*

*tremble*

 

[saltash seagull]

[strings]

I really want us to draw Burton Albion at some point this season.

 

[Basil Fawlty]

A trip to Shithurst, would be a ideal.

 

[saafend_seagull]

draw next week i think

 

[Kinky Gerbil]

Why does it need to be seeded?

 

[Without Limits]

draw next week i think

Totally agree this is stupid it should not be Seeded at all. Its a cup we should all be on a level playing field.

draw is the 16th June and League Fixtures out the 17th.

 

[Brovion]

Why does it need to be seeded?

It's to make sure the big clubs aren't drawn together. I mean you wouldn't want Peterborough playing Colchester TOO early would you?

Quite agree. How long before it descends into a mini-league-type load of cobblers (a la Chumpions Lg. & that other new thing)? I give it a couple of years.

 

[Taybha]

what numpty thought this tosh up then? fuxake with clubs struggling as it is i know what we will do ,we will seed the cup and stop the likes of stockport possibly playing one of the big boys.yeah great idea now lets do the draw and f*** off to spain for another 9 months until we have to think some more kill the game shit for next season.

 

[SirDouglasLoft]

Palace away

 

[HG201]

Only one which stood out-Palace away

 

[acrossthepond]

Southampton away please.

mmmmmmmm

 

[seagullsovergrimsby]

Do the seeded teams get home advantage as well ?

 

[Hiney]

The 'seeding' is just based on league places - 13th and above in League One = seeded, 14th and below in League One = not seeded.

 

[8ace]

Are the seeds worked out from league position last season?
That'll be a yes then.
