Carling Cup Draw

[marky No.1]

Wednesday 16th June. The earlier rounds are regional and seeded so we won't get League 2 opponents. Burnley and Hull have byes so we can't get them either. As there are'nt many Northern teams in League 1 chances are we will get a Championship team ~ again!

Usual suspects will be Preston, Carlisle, Notts. Forest/County, Sheffield, Stockport, Tranmere

Are the ties drawn in such a way that the seeded sides are at home? You could also throw Leeds United into the pot!?! What a day out that would be.

I think it just feels that way because we always get an Away tie (Preston x 2, Wolves, Sheff Utd, Oldham, Notts Forest, Tranmere, Carlisle)

i think Port vale and grimsby were the only home ones we were given while in the Football League

Leeds or boro would be good
