bradowl Posted August 28 Share Posted August 28 Draw for next round is after tonight's Forest v Newcastle game. Games for next round are played over 2 weeks, weeks commencing 16th and 23rd September, the second week is for clubs involved in European competition. A home draw against Barrow will do me. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tylluan Posted August 28 Share Posted August 28 It's complete bollocks. City, Villa, Victims, etc aren't going to be fielding their European first elevens in the Carabao Cup no matter when the tie is played. That's what squad sizes are for and the rules allow for kids to be played in the advent of a higher competition taking precedence 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fOWLmouth Posted August 28 Share Posted August 28 I like balance in my life so I’m hoping Fleetwood beat Stoke and we are drawn away to them.I’m confident we will beat Blackpool and looking forward to some more fish and chips.

fOWLmouth Posted August 29 Share Posted August 29 I thought someone would have challenged me over the nuance of using Blackpool as the basis for the fishing industry in the greater Fylde area,but no one took the bait.I believe Fleetwood is included in that area but not 100% sure.

I watched or read something in the last ten years which mentioned him as such and i remember being surprised. With him being as nationally famous as he was, you'd expect him to have been more féted than he was here. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Controversial because it's not a river either It is basically transgender, identifying as fresh water, then as sea water on an incoming tide.
