[Liquid Gold]

Yesss. Screw your Friday night games I got this.

 

[mark82]

And not even a tiny shit was given.

 

[mark82]

And I'm not sure you can call the placing of kids teams into predetermined groups a draw.

next years final the week before the mackems away. Could be an expensive couple of weeks, (he said counting his chickens).

 

[Nonleagueherewecome]

Forest Green, eh?

 

[Skyblueol]

Will take either forest green or Cheltenham away.

 

[Sky Blue Harry H]

A few would go to Cheltenham away. Fun last season.

 

[Alkhen]

Niiice Cheltenham and FGR are the two closest league clubs to me. Either or both away would be perfect.

Another 6-1 Whaddon Road or revenge at the new lawn

Am I right in thinking that they will be one of those at home and one away, as the U21 team we draw will automatically be at home?

Completed it mate.

 

[Happy_Martian]

Still can't work out how the EFL puts us in the south draw but Wolves and West Brom in the northern section.

Because they are both north of us, and we are south of both of them ?

Definitely will take Cheltenham away. Was on hols for last seasons game, so a 'new' stadium went begging.

 

[Harry_Walker]

Hope both are at home as it’ll mean we will play the under 21 side away from home at their first team stadium

 

[covcity4life]

Good draw for us. Bring it on. We have a big squad and we need these games for rotation

Obrien
Mason
MacDonald
Hyam
Trimmer
Doyle
Westbrook
Allasani
Shipley
Biamou
Ponticelli

An example 11. Not bad at all? We can win this thing again without harming league form

Is Trimmer a new signing?

 

[I_Saw_Shaw_Score]

Is Trimmer a new signing?

It’s Jack Grimmer and Kieran Trippier’s love child!

 

[Malaka]

Wembley is now boring:shamefullyembarrased:

 

[covcity4life]

Is Trimmer a new signing?

No it's grimmer after he comes back fitter from pre season.

And I'm not sure you can call the placing of kids teams into predetermined groups a draw.

It's a fact that some of the kids teams will have cost millions of £'s to assemble particularly in the case of Chelsea
I think it's been a game changer for the top clubs since they put their u23's into this cup
Chelsea even played senior players who they paid over £10m for in earlier rounds but still got nowhere near the final
That's why the Prem teams are looking at putting their best prospects at our level so they get men's football experience

 

[Great_Expectations]

I’d like to us to go far in this again without hampering our league form.

Our squad is big and strong enough to progress to the latter stages and why wouldn’t we want to? Momentum and a winning mentality will support our league campaign, regardless of the status of the competition.

Plus, I’d love another trip to Wembley. And as we’re being promoted via the autos, this is the only chance we’ll have.

Not going to win the FA Cup?

They came close last season, they lost in the semi final on penalties against Lincoln

 

[jimmyhillsfanclub]

Couldn't give a toss about this trophy but would like to get to visit FGR as missed it last time

 

[Greggs]

Tempted by FG, was disaster last year, but tidy little ground!

One for the teenagers there Harry!

 

[Nick]

I can see why Arsenal are regional to us.

 

[Nick]

Think they need to use a bit of Logic, Leicester playing Fleetwood and buy in area groups but we play Arsenal? Walsall play Middlesborough

 

[sw88]

Yes, yes, yes! Another chance to see what chuba Akpom can do..... cannot wait :emoji_rolling_eyes:

 

[Sky Blue Harry H]

Suspect Arsenal kids (alongside Chelsea) will be one of the strongest U23s sides.

mowbray helped us beat west ham in what was a truly magical night
robins can do arsenal over!

 

[skyblueelephant76]

They are all U21 sides this season

 

[better days]

A few of our young players were at the Arsenal including JJ and Corey Aidey
They would probably fancy playing against them if JJ is fit by then
