Are Rovers in the draw for the second round tomorrow? If so, who does everyone want. Wouldn't mind Preston (shut them up about the pre-season FRIENDLY victory) or Burnley. Haha

Preston beat Stockport away 0-5, you may get your wish.

At home to the semis will do for me.

Exeter on a Tuesday night?! I'm all for new grounds, but that is a bit mad.

Preston at home would be good.

Exeter at home :)

My brother is an Exeter fan that's why

Only the clubs in European competition get byes.

What about when we only have seven qualifiers for Europe? I think it's the top 8, regardless of whether 8th place gets a Euro spot.

You could look it up yourself but from good ole' Wikipedia-

Second round

All clubs playing in the Premier League, unless they are competing in the UEFA Champions League or Europa League, as well as any (Championship) clubs that may have been given a bye to this round, enter at this stage and join the First Round winners, although Manchester City were not exempt in 2008–09, having qualified for the UEFA Cup through the Fair Play league.

Three extra time shocks- Accy winning at Doncaster, Bradford knocked out Forest and Southend accounting for Bristol City.

I quite fancy a competitive home game V Accy Stanley, I bet its been a very long time since the last one.

When's the draw anyone?

From the LET

The draw is due to take place on Sky Sports News after tonight's remaining first-round matches and is expected to be seeded - meaning Blackburn and Burnley cannot face each other, but either could be drawn against Stanley.

Seeded: Everton, Birmingham, BLACKBURN ROVERS, Stoke, Fulham, Sunderland, Bolton, Wolves, Wigan, West Ham, Newcastle, West Brom, Blackpool, BURNLEY, Hull, Portsmouth, Leicester, Swansea, Middlesbrough, Ipswich, Watford, Preston, Cardiff*, Sheffield United*, Reading*.

Unseeded: Leeds, Millwall, Sheffield Wednesday, Peterborough, Huddersfield, Southampton, Colchester, Brentford, MK Dons, Rochdale, Bradford, Crewe, ACCRINGTON STANLEY, Morecambe, Northampton, Oxford, Notts County, Port Vale, Shrewsbury, Southend, Leyton Orient, Tranmere, Scunthorpe*, Crystal Palace*, Norwich*.

Stanley home or away- as an Accy resident that would be ideal :)

Posted

Trips away to any of Leeds, Millwall, Sheffield Wednesday, Peterborough, Huddersfield and Southampton could be pretty uncomfortable and there are five Championship clubs this morning rueing their losses to unfancied opposition.

Morecambe, please, would like to see their new stadium.

Same, safe standing areas behind the goals, much better than, say, Chesterfield's new all seater.
