CARABAO CUP DATES 2020/21

[-Rob-]

Got to be a chance to get through the early rounds, get some confidence and match fitness early in the season.

Would love to knock Joey Barton out the cup when though I've got a few friends at Fleetwood.

Christ, two very nice draws there.

Should beat both, but best to not be complacent

Two draws? Have they done the next round as well?

Most importantly, without us having to tackle them, if we make round 4, we're guaranteed to be 5 Premier League teams down with

Leeds/West Ham, Sheffield Utd/Burnley, Arsenal/Leicester, West Brom/Southampton, Man City/Crystal Palace pencilled in against each other.

I'm sure there will be further casualties, but hope it's not us!

[Zatara]

Very good draw for the 2nd and 3rd round.

Get through those 2 matches and its:

4th round
Quarters
Semis
Final

The winners then compete in the "Europa Conference League" which is now a 3rd tier european competition below champions and europa leagues.

Still, it would mean a backup if we didnt get Europe through the league + more importantly silverware

Got to fancy our chances but I feel we've been here before...

Never see me moaning about the Conference League Zat.

I know we say Nurnburg, Villarreal, Lille with the fans everywhere, but for me, the chance to go watch the blues in some random farm country like Slovenia, with €1, and your good mates, whats not to love? Oh and at the end of it, we MAY have a chance of winning it?

Can't wait for the scrabble if we got to the final, with a max of 41,000 capacity lol

 

[Deco]

Great chance to get into the quarters by the end of the month.

We need the regular games too - nice easy wins early on will give us a lot of confidence.

Who did we get in the 3rd round (if we get through the 2nd round)

Fleetwood Town/Port Vale v Everton/Salford City

Fleetwood Town/Port Vale v Everton/Salford City

Cheers mate. Tricky little away tie of we get through.

I find the main obstacle in us not winning more matches is because we have to play an opposition team. Its a shame we csn just be given automatic 3-0 wins as that would be better for the nerves

 

[Ring master]

This was Salford's win round one if any want to watch it [they won on pens]

 

[Lloydystark]

It’s our year

Is this a thing, or just a sick joke?
