    At least the Football League have put Scunthorpe v Middlesbrough in as the earliest fixture.

    After all it wouldn't make sense to have Shrewsbury or Cambridge v Middlesbrough later in winter when fans are going to be even less enthusiastic about travelling long distances in the cold when trains / roads might be screwed!!

    Accrington barely get much more than 1500 for league games so they should be the lowest

    29 matches tonight, 1 on Wednesday.

    Total attendance no more than 20,000.

    (Although KM will probably announce our gate tonight as 27,111 ...)

    Portsmouth tweeted that they had only sold 'just over 100' this morning.

    pointless and a waste of time early stages should be played at the training ground.

    In fairness that's not bad going for a pointless midweek cup game away to Yeovil!

    It is a local derby though! Well sort of

    That reminds me of us playing Millwall in the Anglo Italian cup...

    Think Pompey are boycotting though due to the academy teams playing.

    We took 300 to Plymouth on a Tuesday night in the third round last season. Which i thought was pretty good. Thought we'd take about 50 tops.

    We took 1500 to Oxford! But that was in the area SF.

    saw something on twitter about fans of the u23 clubs deliberately boycotting as its a farce of a tournament, get there point a club like mansfield getting a big day out at wembley is what it should be about.

    Can't believe how low the turnout was.

    When was the last time Charlton scored 5 goals in a competitive game at the Valley?

    I'm not sure what's more concerning, this whole shambles of a tournament, or the fact Millwall had twice as many home fans as us

    £5 probably about right for this nonsense of a competition. Not that I'll be going to many.

    260 Saints fans bought tickets, not sure 260 actually attended.

    It was said that any fans buying tickets for last night would earn extra priority points for their away league games.

    Got to laugh, the head of Checkatrade said this when they took over:

    "We're delighted to be associated with so many well respected and prestigious clubs participating in the Checkatrade Trophy and we look forward to engaging with fans over the coming season"

    Not quite sure he had the likes of Brighton and Reading's U23s in mind!

    I'm disappointed that over 1,000 Charlton fans actually attended this debacle of a competition.
