[Pevenseagull]

Everton @ home please

 

[Barrel of Fun]

I'm rather hoping we get Leeds at home. Seeing as we have to play them on the following Friday evening, I expect Ken Bates would be too tight to have them stay around until then. So they can do two long journeys south in the week.

When is the draw?

 

[Barrel of Fun]

On Saturday byf. There does not seem to be a definitive time, unless I am missing something.

Liverpool, Aldershot (beat West Ham!!) and Swindon confirmed as through to their respective rounds.

Grrrr why do we have to wait till Saturday for the draw? It should be straight after the last game like the FA cup!

Agreed.

Definitely sticking with Leeds! Leeds! Leeds! at home.

Twice in one week is going to sap their energy somewhat.

 

[Tony Meolas Loan Spell]

Mark my words itll be something shit like MK Dons or Rochdale or god forbid Stoke away.

 

[Bean]

Fulham away

 

[supaseagull]

Wouldn't mind Swindon at home...Itd be good to give them another reason to hate us once they'd seen the lads being walked out by big Gordon at the Amex.

 

[Driver8]

Anyone know if it is seeded in round three or a free for all?
