The draw for the third round of the Johnstone's Paint Trophy has been made and here's who is playing who:-
Northern Section
Carlisle United v Crewe Alexandra
Rotherham United v Huddersfield Town
Bury v Accrington Stanley / Stockport County (TBC)
Sheffield Wednesday v Hartlepool United
Southern Section
Swindon Town v Brentford
Plymouth Argyle v Exeter City
Southend United v Charlton Athletic
Wycombe Wanderers v Bristol Rovers
Ties to be played during the week commencing 8th November 2010.
I guess it wasn't split east/west (as kap just tried to tell me)...otherwise brizzle would switch with brentford
bloody convenient that plymouth and exeter drew each other
I had a chat with some friends of mine and they reckon that, as we have now won two games in this competition we are officially on a 'cup run'!!!!!!!! quote Addickjohn.
Probably correct our ' cup doth not run over', in recent years...... Do we have the worst cup run in the Football league,( over the last 10 yers or so) only thing I can remember was beating Chelsea, which Mourinho disputes was a defeat( well he would woudn't he)
I hope we do progress in our cup games, never prescribed to the theory that they are a distraction, the whole point of cup comps is that smaller clubs (that is us by the way) can competer against so called better clubs, make a few bob and raise the profile of the club. Might go to this.......

2 - 0 Francis and McCormack.
Uh-uh!
That's us knocked out then.
if so.... this is much better than going to plymouth, exeter or torquay (i think all 3 of them are still in it)
No just North South separation.
If we get through then its a southern two leg semi
does that stop in round 3?
trying to find full draw now
if you are right, we are lucky to get a short (winnable) away trip
IF? Whats this IF?

Bet they were thinking the same!
Argyle wouldn't have fancied Southend away on a Tuesday night!!
The Sturrock factor would've changed their minds.
Sorry Uncle , my tomb stone will read
"He supported Charlton, more in hope than expectation"
if so how do they choose?
2 legs
Bet they have disappointed many a northern women in Malia and Benidorm after a few too many.
5 nil to us anyone?

Is that true - we lose money on home cup ties in lesser competitions like this?
How bloody depressing...
Would really have prefered not to have known that !
