Hope we don't get Chelsea U 23s in the quarter finals
I hope we don't get them at Wembley

It would be moved to midweek as Leicester have first team commitments at the weekend! Not that I'm bitter or find these "Under 23" team selection rules farcical....We want Leicester City u21 in the final!
Nice to see Luton go out, however it's always a good away day - I always come back from their ground being thankful for what we have.
Doesn't matter what their stadium is like - it's in Luton and that alone should be enough reason to be glad it isn't ours!You'd rather have a half built breezeblock nightmare that smells of fecal matter than an old ground full of character? Odd.
Have I used up all my luck starting matchday threads?
Should I be starting a matchday thread in the EFL Trophy?
What will the matchday thread Gods make of it?
We’ll find out soon enough. On to the game, well to honest I’m too confident about this one, however I can see us sneaking a fortuitous draw, probably a score draw.
Pep surprises everyone by reverting back to a lone striker.
Van Kessel is forgiven for not passing on Saturday, Thomas isn’t and drops to the bench.
2-2 Obika & Van Kessel, with Holmes scoring for Charlton. We win 5-4 on penalties.
Eastwood
Carroll, Martin, Williamson, Ricardinho,
Ledson, Mowatt,
Henry, Payne, Van Kessel,
Obika.
Subs, Shearer, Tiendalli, Ruffels, Xemi, Thomas, Napa, Mehmeti.
Through to the quarter finals:
Chelsea U.21, Peterborough Utd, Lincoln City, Yeovil Town,
Fleetwood Town, Oxford Utd, Oldham or Leicester U.21,
Shrewsbury Town or Blackpool.
Yes. Yes we are.Seriously, this is a pointless competition at the best of times - but that is one of the least exciting and inspiring list of QF opponents that you could ever expect to have in any football league competition!
We're going to lose in the final again, aren't we? B*****s to it.
Personally I felt more passionate about the Setanta Shield way back when.Seriously, this is a pointless competition at the best of times - but that is one of the least exciting and inspiring list of QF opponents that you could ever expect to have in any football league competition!

YR you are nailed on and another nearly spot on predictionPhew, that was close!
So a score draw and a win on penalties
The superstitious amongst you happy for me to continue with the next matchday thread?
