I'd like our route to the final to be easy as possible. Then make sure your passport is in date for Europe next season

I've met Jake Eastwood, Grimsby's keeper last night. Lovely lad. So pleased for him last night with his 2 penalty saves and the balls to take one and slot it too.

If only David Artell played him more often.....

Unless the competition has changed, there's probably more than half the premier league teams in round 2, apart from those in European competitions?

Yes.

All the prem not Involved in Europe come into it, so Newcastle are about the biggest club coming into this round we can get. Everton and Leicester probably best to avoid too.

I'm on holiday the week the tie gets played so let's get a L2 club and batter them.

Actually,  just realised I'm on holiday that week so for purely selfish reasons,  I now want a relatively easy draw.

BRING ON ROUND THREE!!

Saw quite a few of those tacky red bull logos tonight, obviously going to Elland Road. I do hope they don’t get stuck in the car park on the way out and have to stew in their own pathetic juices!

We’ll be going. Mrs T fancies a day out in Liverpool. So she and her mate will do that. Then go to a pub while me and my son will watch the Rovers win.
Lovely day out.

Will this be the first time we have been involved in a game using VAR?

Our media guy, David  who produces all the behind the scenes footage including the very good 'Inside Rovers' is an Everton Fan, so for two years running, has got his wish. See his Salford vlog below.

https://youtu.be/eC67NGhVlc0?si=wUdymL5Lahc8b0pT

Not sure why, but his Vlogs are going out from his own YouTube channel rather than Rovers channel.

  Petche, I think there was a bit of a stink when we played West Ham in the cup the other year and VAR was used.
  Another team in our league played a Premiership side away in the same round and the Premiership side waved the fee for the use of VAR and got good publicity for their generosity to the smaller club, we got banged for over £30 k for our share of the cost which I couldn't believe  it by West Ham the publicity being muted.
 To top it all it was reported it was never used as nothing was controversial in the game, we got hammered.
  I can remember thinking how can it cost that much.
