    I hate to say it but I kind of agree with Bowyer, we're not going to win these competitions so why take them seriously?

    The gulf that FFP (and now the Salary Cap) has created has been partly to blame for that

    Only bonus we should take from this game is at least its not a Championship or League One team (so its someone new) and its a chance for the next Alfie Doughty to impress

    The only competition we can win is the EFL Trophy but as we saw with Portsmouth / Sunderland, why go for that when the bigger prize is promotion?

    Week before the season starts might mean we play a stronger team than usual in league cup.

    This will be interesting no fans, will it be on Valley Pass? 

    If they are not showing it in any shape or form what is the point?

    There is talk that the Carabao Cup may be used to test fans being allowed back in Stadiums again - It makes sense to be honest as most attendances are shocking for this

    2 1/2 weeks to our first game, that's a bit frightening

    Swindon's first game since March too!

    Quite likely actually, it's basically a competitive friendly.

    Would make it interesting if the League game is a few weeks after as well

    Swindon Town Away up first - so newly promoted to L1 hosts newly demoted to L1.

    I would agree, however since there has been no football to attend since March I can see everyone wanting to attend just to see a ‘live’ game again. 

    no away fans I would imagine. 

    They will have to consider streaming as some income has to be better than none.

    Charlton have been drawn away to Swindon Town in the first round of the Carabao Cup. 

    Following the regionalised draw on Tuesday morning, the Addicks will take on the Robins in the tie at the County Ground which is expected to take place on Saturday, September 5th.

    The game is expected to be played behind closed doors, with full information on online streaming to follow once confirmed.


    Looks like it will be streamed 

    Sad to say I have never had such little enthusiasm for a new season.

    I thought for a minute that Crawley had drawn the gadget guy from James Bond.

    Basically a pre-season friendly. Use it to get the players up to speed. We hardly ever get past the 2nd round in any case.

    We'll come good and win it this season.

    Now where are my tablets?
