Good couple of tests coming up against a Derby side who can count themselves unlucky not to be in the PL. If BP goes with as strong a side as last night we might find we have the upper hand if Derby play a much weakened team
another crap draw........how come we always get a Championship team,away from home, whom we have just played.
so we have Derby home & away within a week..........brilliant !!!!
when did we last draw a decent Premership side, home or away ???
Spurs?
Fulham?
exactly - I said decent.
since we were relegated from the Prem, we must have had at least 20 cup draws, and as far as I can recall we have drawn just 1 Prem team (Fulham).........and they aren't a great team to draw.
When was the last time we weren't even pulled out of a hat yet end up with a tie.
Didn't see the draw and now totally confused as to what's happened, can anyone fill me in please?
Unseeded teams were 'automatically' on the caption at the bottom one at a time, then teams were drawn out of the hat to play them. They cocked it up at one point and had to go back, all done at 100mph. Just strange all round. Blinked and you missed it.

This! Our new look squad needs as many games as possible and this might prove quite valuable in gelling / testing the side and Bob Peeter's... Put another way which would you (and Derby fans!) prefer- a win in the cup or league? We need to test ourselves vs top 10 sides so Duchatelet, Meire and Peeters can see what works and what are the gaps which might be fixed in the next window.

Or even this window as it doesn't close until 1st September...

Thanks (and to @ValleyGary) but what a stupid, stupid idea. Cup draws have worked perfectly well for over a 100 years so why did some numbnuts think that was ever going to be an improvement!
I am happy with this. Good chance to knock out a club who only have one aim this season. Then another mediocre draw could give us serious cup progress. Onwards and....

Turd draw
On top of that MK Plastics get bloody Man U at home!!!!!
Fulham?
Otherwise, yes, a total fuck up of a draw!
PROVE IT
what a stupid way of doing the draw.
