[claretonthecoast1882]

9,13,15,20,21 or 25 at home

[ClaretTony]

9,13,15,20,21 or 25 at home

Would be my choice but I suspect not

[Moorite]

Lincoln please with a full strength squad to make up for the embarrassing defeat.

[claretonthecoast1882]

Would be my choice but I suspect not

If you name the opposition we draw you can get 30/1.

Seems a good price for drawing Man City

[AGENT_CLARET]

Hope for 9, 15, 19, 21 or 25 at home or 20 at home or away

But its nailed on we 100% get 17, we always do plus the VK factor

[Milltown1882]

Given the timing of the third round Blackburn twice in a week would certainly be interesting.

Thugs!

[ClaretTony]

We mentioned it on the way back that they would probably give us City to make sure we go no further.

[tiger76]

Given the timing of the third round Blackburn twice in a week would certainly be interesting.

Aye! I'm sure the Lancs plod will love that prospect.

[TheOriginalLongsider]

The draw will take place tonight on Sky Sports at 9:45 or whenever the Tranmere Rovers v Newcastle United game finishes.

[Devils_Advocate]

It was just after 10 last round as they did some post match analysis

[Bosscat]

It was just after 10 last round as they did some post match waffle about nowt in particular

Have edited it for you

[claretburns]

If Bristol City lose to Wycombe this evening only Burnley and Blackburn from the Championship will be in round three.

[MACCA]

Can I ask when the ties are due to be played before selecting who I'd like please..

W/C 7th November.

[aclaretinstevenage]

25 Away please!! :0) :0)

[ClaretLoup]

31 away for me, a nice short ride on the Metro and I will take my binoculars so I can watch Popey picking the ball out of the net at the Gallowgate End.

Howay the Lads.

[SalouClaret]

Got a feeling we'll draw United. Had a tenner on it at 30/1

It will be Tranmere at the moment.

[Vegas Claret]

Morecambe at the Turf, don't want any sort of serious exertion before playing Rovers at the weekend

[IanMcL]

9,13,15,20,21 or 25 at home

You could add 19

[chekhov]

Draw coming up?

[timshorts]

Hope for 9, 15, 19, 21 or 25 at home or 20 at home or away

But its nailed on we 100% get 17, we always do plus the VK factor

But there's no guarantee that it is this round that city ko us. We might get lucky and have a bit of a run first.

[dougcollins]

Bloody hell they're milking this. I forgot how boring Eddie can be.

[timshorts]

Newport away. I worked there for 10 years but haven't seen football at the rugby ground yet.

[4midable]

Bloody hell they're milking this. I forgot how boring Eddie can be.

Said 10 mins 20.mins ago
Howe is terrible

[Bosscat]

Crawley at home

[Pearcey]

Crawley at home then.

[JohnMac]

CRAWLEY at Turf Moor, bound to be televised

[Colburn_Claret]

can't complain at that.

[Vegas Claret]

perfect

[4midable]

Bottom of league 2.cant get better

[AGENT_CLARET]

Crawley game, should be 98% possession

[Colburn_Claret]

A lot of big teams going out, and a good few lower teams going through.

All we need is to make sure we don't blow the opportunity, and then get lucky with the draw, and start dreaming.

[4:20]

Is this the first time we've ever played a competitive game against them?

[Jimmymaccer]

23rd in league 2………

Hmmmmmmm

[Nonayforever]

Crawley at home ... that's a 69 then !

[box_of_frogs]

CRAWLEY at Turf Moor, bound to be televised

No chance!

[Milltown1882]

As good a draw as we could’ve hoped for.

[Bordeaux]

Bbc says home vs crawley

[4midable]

7 all prem ties too
Gets rid of a few big guns

[Clarets4me]

" An opportunity to progress ", as Burnley Managers have said in the past, notably before FA Cup ties against Wimbledon and Lincoln City !

[DAVETHEVICAR]

Good draw for progress but will lose money on game

[ArthurShelby]

Lots of Prem v Prem draws.

Win this and get a lucky draw in the next round who knows …. ?!

[ArthurShelby]

100% be on TV.

[Spiral]

Crawley game, should be 98% possession

We could be the first team in the history of football to have more than 100% possession.

Still only two shots on target, like, but one of them goes in, so we're sound!

[clarethomer]

Blackburn away at West Ham. Not an ideal tie for them before coming to us next.

Hopefully ideal for us

[Longsider]

Good draw for us.
