Title: Re: League Cup draw Post by: uopuims on Wednesday, June 16, 2010, 07:58:37 What ball number are we or is it done by computer? Can we get a live stream of the draw to make sure it's not fixed?

Title: Re: League Cup draw Post by: pauld on Wednesday, June 16, 2010, 08:36:08 A glamour local derby for Saints, home to Bournemouth. And since when are Notts County a Southern side?
Title: Re: League Cup draw Post by: Spy on Wednesday, June 16, 2010, 08:39:19 Shit draw for us. At least it's very winnable tho.
Oxford will be well chuffed. Loads of police out for that one!! Title: Re: League Cup draw Post by: Sippo on Wednesday, June 16, 2010, 08:53:04 Meh
Title: Re: League Cup draw Post by: Power to people on Wednesday, June 16, 2010, 09:34:29 Why do they do the draw in such a way that championship sides cannot face each other, surely that's biased towards the 'bigger' teams
Title: Re: League Cup draw Post by: nevillew on Wednesday, June 16, 2010, 09:36:38 Why do they do the draw in such a way that championship sides cannot face each other, surely that's biased towards the 'bigger' teams Depends which way you look at it - there's more chance of a lower league club playing a championship side. Title: Re: League Cup draw Post by: Paolo69 on Wednesday, June 16, 2010, 09:37:20 Why do they do the draw in such a way that championship sides cannot face each other, surely that's biased towards the 'bigger' teams Yeah it is, but that's how a seeding system works. Not convinced they should be doing it like this though. Title: Re: League Cup draw Post by: Spy on Wednesday, June 16, 2010, 09:37:55 Is round 2 also seeded?
Title: Re: League Cup draw Post by: Langers on Wednesday, June 16, 2010, 09:47:24 Well that was a bit shit.
Title: Re: League Cup draw Post by: THE FLASH on Wednesday, June 16, 2010, 09:53:54 At least its at home..but...pffft
Title: Re: League Cup draw Post by: Peter Venkman on Wednesday, June 16, 2010, 09:58:49 Insipid draw.
Title: Re: League Cup draw Post by: Nijholts Nuts on Wednesday, June 16, 2010, 10:00:19 At least it isnt Orient away, we dont need any little cunts trying to set their ground of fire again and we certainly dont need to try and play our passing game on their shit pitch any more than we have to.

Title: Re: League Cup draw Post by: oxonrobin on Wednesday, June 16, 2010, 10:18:24 Meh, don't mind that draw. As long as we win of course.
Title: Re: League Cup draw Post by: Rich Pullen on Wednesday, June 16, 2010, 11:00:34 That'll do. Orient fans will feel just as underwhelmed as our majority. Important thing is we're at home.

Title: Re: League Cup draw Post by: Power to people on Wednesday, June 16, 2010, 12:58:24 Yeah it is, but that's how a seeding system works. Not convinced they should be doing it like this though. That was my thinking, I would say it gives an unfair advantage as you would expect a championship team to beat a L1 or L2 team usually, so by rights all Championship clubs should get through to the next round and a chance to earn more with the lower league teams knocked out in R1 hot having that opportunity as it is not a level playing field, it should be an open draw for anyone to draw anyone. |
