    It costs money to put on 3 games all this is just swallowed up.

    It wouldn't be so tragic if the EFL hadn't have said this,

    “Due to the unprecedented challenges facing the fixture calendar as a result of the Covid-19 pandemic and starting six weeks later than usual, the Sky Bet EFL Championship will feature 13 midweek match rounds whilst League One and League Two will have 11 respectively throughout season 2020-21,” said an EFL statement.

    There is no way you can come at it with the we can't fit in FA Cup replays whilst at the same time there is space for an 8 game competition.

    These league's might not have the finances due to reduced income to finish the season, nevermind piling games on them in a schedule that is already full to bursting before the season kicks off without bad weather postponements or postive Covid tests.

    I’m confused, City have announced we will play Doncaster and Oldham in the EFL Cup - I thought the draw was tomorrow?
    Or is that just when they add the invited teams?

    You don’t sound as though you feel privileged to be gracing the same pitch as the great ones!

    Against Bolton it'll be a good test.
    And will show how weak our team is.

    Remember McCall doesn't do cup runs.

    Couldn't have been a worse draw. Can't wait for their deluded fans all over social media to resurrect the non existent rivalry between us. Oh and the inevitable Eoin Doyle goal or two. How fun.

    It wouldn’t have mattered who we drew in the cup. McCalls cup track record has to be one of the worst, but fingers crossed, he’ll come good this season.

    I think everyone who wants one will have no problems getting one, I'd like to think 10,000 but a more realistic 7/8,000 would be nearer IMO.
