Our first ever FLC game in the tournaments inaugural season. Our goals were a Gordon Harris hat trick and 1 by John Connelly. We eventually lost 2-1 to Villa in the semi final 2nd replay at Old Trafford. Just wondered if anybody on here was at Cardiff for that first ever game. I was at the semi finals but none of the other games. It was to be 65/6 season before we entered the competition again. After beating Doncaster Southampton and Stoke we crashed out 4-0 to Peterboro. Sadly for me I had made the trip to London Rd . Long trip home that was !! Anybody got other memories of the early FLC games ?

I saw the home games that season against Brentford, Forest & Villa, my first away game in the League Cup didn't come until the Swindon semi-final in 1968/69
