Play our strongest side to win this and qualify for the EL or play some reserves? I think they'll be a fair few reserves selected a) because of EL demands and b) to encourage the youngsters.

[Saints foreva]

Brighton away.

[bpsaint]

Local-ish away game please

[whelk]

Presumably draw get put back due to ET in Sky game?

Yep, EFL Cup on Twitter said it was dependent on the live match finish team earlier today.

This is a season where it is perfectly acceptable to bin the League Cup off to the youngsters. Something has got to give and we need to give the EL a real go.

Personally it has to be a mixture. Hesketh, reed, Stephens etc alongside some first team players.

Throwing youngsters to the wolves like Harry did would be criminal imo.

Everton at home, it's written in the stars...

[stevegrant]

We are number 23...

All wrong.

 

Yawn. Away trip would have been OK for Palace but home one sucks.

Sake

[Saint Charminster]

Crap draw, our recent cup bogey team!

[Appy]

Game will be on Wednesday 21st I believe, as we play Swansea on the Sunday before.

[Badger]

Oh just bore off. Fed up of drawing them nobodies in the cup.

 

...and losing to them,,,

[AllSorts]

Good draw to play youth.

[Saint Scott]

Always seem to get palace or bloody Sunderland

What does that make us? We lose to them..

[CB Fry]

Since their elevation to level 2 four days ago we've got absolutely no chance of beating them.

[LGTL]

We're nobodies too.

[Lets B Avenue]

We're nobodies too.

 

[ScepticalStan]

We're nobodies too.

 

Quite.

 

I'd imagine 90% of both sets of fans neither intend, nor take any offence whatsoever at both Palace and Saints being utterly bored with one another in cups.

Benteke hat-trick. He seems to always score against us.

[Lets B Avenue]

Wonder if Pardew will still be their manager by then?

You mean level 3, or are they with us in level 4? Glasgow?

[david in sweden]

Ffs - palace again

 

my first reaction, too !

[John Boy Saint]

Ooooo that's really got me searching for an excuse to get home early from work for!!

 

Still them doing us in the Cup last January was the game to light the blue touch paper for a not too shabby remainder of the season. I would take that bit of lightening striking twice especially in September.

[Bad Wolf]

Just seen this...Not again ffs

[The9]

And even after playing them in a Cup for 3 years in a row we still get "Cyrstal Palace" in the thread title.
