League Cup 2024/2025 Thread

Draw for the first round is today at 11.30am.

I'm always slightly disappointed when we're not in the 1st round. It's one of my favourite fixtures of the season - a balmy early August evening away at somewhere like Torquay. Like a pre-season friendly that actually matters. 

[Fox92]

Spireites at Derby  Gonna be brilliant that one.

[StanSP]

Leeds vs Boro, Hull vs Sheff Weds probably the pick of the ties for TV coverage. 

[spacemunky]

Shrewsbury away.

I think Sky are showing every game live

[spacemunky]

Hoping the Pies Player has worked out the bugs after our season opener.

 

Curious as to what sort of team Maynard go with today at Shrewsbury.

[spacemunky]

Looks like Shrews went strong.

 

Obviously, they fear us 

[spacemunky]

Damn, audio only for this one.

 

Guess I'll listen to our match and watch one of the televised ones.

[spacemunky]

Apparently, we scored a nice goal.

 

I wouldn't know because Pies Player is rubbish.

 

Guess I'll watch Sheff U/Wrexham.

[spacemunky]

Finally got the audio, just in time to not hear our second goal 

[spacemunky]

Two goals for Shrews in 3 minutes.

 

Sounds like we've fallen apart here, after a great first half.

[spacemunky]

Well...that'll probably end our Cup run 

[spacemunky]

Sheff U 3-1 up on Wrexham.

Or not!

 

Jatta makes it 3-3.

[StanSP]

Fleetwood beating West Brom probably the only shock of the night. 

[spacemunky]

Out on pens.

[spacemunky]

Got a bit nasty at the end of this Sheff U/Wrexham match.

[LcFc_Smiv]

So envious of Sheffield United giving decent run outs to Peck, Hampson, Boyes and Marsh all young lads. Peck has looked brilliant, add that to Arblaster and they have some decent talent coming through.

Reckon the Wrexham novelty will wear off this season..

They have previous.

[Super_horns]

A rate easy night for us !

 

Usually low at this stage.

[Happy Fox]

I hope we get the sheepshaggers in the next round. Easy win for us.
