Carabao Cup

[rigger]

Cov away, a clash of the worst owners in football

[Gumbi]

You have to question the draw given that Charlton have been drawn against both Exeter away, and Cheltenham at home.

I noticed this, I didn't have sound on (at work) but how did they get round this? Surely it needed a re-draw?

[had.e.nuff]

next venkys objective to get us in the unseeded pot

[AggyBlue]

Coventry in the North section and Wolves in the South section?

Nice stadium Coventry and easy to get to. I've been before although in the directors box.

[Oldgregg86]

Can feel a joint protest coming on

[TAFKAP]

Can't believe non of you hoped for a money-spinning, local derby draw, against Accy Stanley. 

[OJRovers]

Full boycott by both sets of fans?

Saw the Premier League fixtures were announced and instinctively looked to see who we are playing.

Instead it seems we are up against a load of these:

It's  Carabao. Thai company who do the Carabao Energy Drink.

It's big here and going big internationally. The Co already involved at Reading and Chelsea and now have a 3 year deal with the EFL.

Carabao in Thai is "Red Buffalo" as in their Co logo.

Apols if you know this already I'm just a Fan of the band, as in previous post.

So... it's a Red Bull knock-off?

[bigbrandjohn]

No need to lock horns. 

[bigbrandjohn]

I have a haunch we will do well in this.

M150 - 1985

Red Bull - 1987

Carabao - 2002

Personall I prefer the oroginal M150, in moderation though.

To answer the q - yes, it's a clever use of language but Carabao Band from which the name 'derives' had been around since 1981......

From being out in Thailand (Friends there) they always warn me off getting a bottle of red bull at the 7/11.

These energy drinks are consumed a lot by long distance drivers....and the road stats show it!

Even for casual use needs respect.

The international versions are much more consumer friendly gnats pliss.

So it is at the Ricoh? As things stand, it is going to be the last season there, and the club are desperately trying to find land or another stadium to buy off someone. They've tried to muscle in on Butt's Park Arena (home of Coventry Rugby), but a ground share may happen rather than SISU buying the stadium outright. 

 

 

[arbitro]

A new system for a penalty shootout in the Carabao Cup called the ABBA system. Presumably the winner takes it all.
