Burnley v Cardiff (would've been Charlton if we won)
Probably a logical answer to this that i'm missing but if we lost to Cambridge and they've ended up with Fulham away, why would we have been away to Burnley?
Something to do with the balls and they way the are grabbed when in the bag.
surely Lincoln v CHelsea or Hudds v Man City are better games than Liverpool at home!
viewing numbers?
Big PL sides AWAY at a small lower league ground makes way better TV. Lots of neutrals will have watched the Man U game because they were away at Grimsby, whereas the reverse fixture would have been less interesting.
Lincoln vs Chelsea is a way more interesting fixture.
It would be interesting to see their projections for viewing figures - they clearly think more eyeballs would be on a Liverpool home game but that feels wrong.

And that is why O'Connell will never be in the 1st eleven ever again
he's done his bit for the club, time to move him on. He's just a donkey out of his depth.
