League Cup draw to take place in a supermarket

[Foulthrow]

I did check the date on this one - https://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/football/48661944" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;

My main disappointment with this news is that Dale Winton is no longer with us. They could have held a 'Supermarket Sweep' style draw and allowed the CEOs of each of the teams in the draw to dash around trying to find a tin of beans that said 'Man United away' on or a can of pop with 'Chelsea home'.

Cant wait to read Claret Tonys view on this especially after the bangkok fiasco a couple off year back

[Burnley1989]

The worlds gone mad

[Longside4evr]

This will go down like a right sack of spuds

[claretonthecoast1882]

Will Blackburn be in the out of date section

[elwaclaret]

More reasons to go to...

The catering sandwich trays swung it.

[FactualFrank]

This will be worth checking out.

[elwaclaret]

Hope they polish the cup... let it shine!

[dsr]

It used to be the Milk Cup. Now it's the Egg Cup, the ButterCup, the Tea Cup, ...

[NL Claret]

Are the EFL taking it less seriously than Sean Dyche?

That's a joke before anyone gets upset.

[SGr]

Not a serious competition.

Using the OPs preferred method they'd be near the horseradish sauce.

I just thought there might be a return to some normality with buffoon Harvey out of the way. Still, I suppose it might be at some sensible time and not in the early hours of the morning.

At least we won’t be at the checkout, hearing the beep, having fun on Supermarket Sweep. We are going to be left on the shelves until the next round.

[Buxtonclaret]

Bonkers.
Hope VAR will be used to make sure there's no 'under the counter' goings on.
What basket case dreamt this up?

[Tricky Trevor]

If they use barcodes everybody will think they’ve drew Newcastle.

[TheFamilyCat]

They’re off their trollies

I said to the wife tonight "As da world gone mad"

[tybfc]

She replied "Lidl do you know"

I'll get my coat

[rob63]

It'll be in the soap aisle........it's still called the Carbolic Cup, right?

[Spike]

If I pulled my balls out in Morrisons I wouldn’t want it on the telly box.

I hope they take their own bags

[ClaretTony]

So you know exactly where to shop - here are the aisle numbers for the draw

Shows how serious we are taking this cup we aren't even in the draw

If Sean Dyche did cup draws......

If Sean Dyche did cup draws......

I have had £20 on Leeds to win it looking at the teams in it this year

[Foulthrow]

The draw isn’t fixed or owt but, amazingly, Salford have drawn Leeds in the first round. I wonder if tv will put this game on???

I think it was odds on that Leeds & Salford would both be shown live on the opening weekend in the league. It would be no surprise if this cup match was on as well.

Salford versus Leeds is Sky's ultimate wet dream of a draw Probably not for the GMP though, I reckon a few of United's Salford lads might fancy that one!

[jrgbfc]

Didn't notice Wimbledon had drawn MK Dons as well! Almost as if SKY have done the draw themselves

By United’s Salford lads fancying it, I assume you mean Beckham, Butt, Gigs, the Neville brothers and Scholes.

More reasons to do the draw at Morrison’s.

I went to the supermarket today to get something for my tea. Came home with two League One clubs.

[Foulthrow]

League One club sandwiches or chocolate biscuits?
