League Cup Draw to be live on Facebook

[studio150]

The Football League have announced that the League Cup 1st round draw will be live on their facebook page tomorrow at 1pm.

Certainly increasing the glamour of the competition and excluding everyone who doesn't use facebook.

A big own goal?

 

[Paul Reids Sock]

Have they explained why it was postponed randomly yet?

Also - I am sure it will be shown elsewhere as well and such an incredible amount of people have Facebook now.

Unless, the two are linked and they couldn't find anywhere that actually wanted to show it?

 

[DTES]

It's not exclusively live on Facebook - it'll be on Sky & the Sky Sports app (which I think is usual) and Facebook.

We won't be in it will we ? We are too BIG for the first round of the League Cup, it's only for NODDY small time teams like Sheffield Wednesday

I'm sure Dave would have been all over it given the chance.

Hope we get an Amex match.

Luton, Crawley, or Portsmouth would be great.

 

[The Birdman]

I'll wait for north stand chat

A big own goal?

Not really, its live elsewhere no doubt but will give many workers the chance to see the draw live without having to use masses of data on their phones

where was it previously broadcast to maximum inclusivity? dont think i've ever seen it live.

Time to scrap this competition

Maybe they could decide the result of a drawn game by "likes" instead of extra time and penalties

lol x

 

[Durlston]

Hopefully Barnet away.

Is the 1st round draw for the League Cup normally televised?

I don't immediately recall Jim White asking Natalie Sawyer and Peter Beagrie to draw out the balls for the 1st round live on Sky Sports News, although I'll stand corrected if I've missed this televisual treat.
