WC Aug 29 Everton H
WC Oct 3 Blackpool H
WC Nov 7 Cheltenham A

Times have changed when the BEN refers to a game against Cheltenham as a "Tasty" northern derby.

Of course the Dog & Partridge over 40's Sunday team just gave Everton's under 21's a good run for their money.  So I would fancy us in that one at least.

The remark was made in irony at the inclusion of Cheltenham being in the northern part of the draw.

Good news for Glos and Manda though I would think!

What the fook is the EFL Trophy, and why the fook is it a group competition? Are they trying to put us out of business?

For once we are in agreement...

We don't we just drop out of this rubbish and focus on League One.  Adding extra games and picking up injuries....nice.

What a load of shit, any tournament where you play someone's reserve side should fooked off and the prick that came up with that idea should be strung up by his testicles from a floodlight.
I keep thinking we can't sink any lower - and then!!!

100% agree. its bullshit.

We should play the reserves (do we have enough?) to give them some competitive game time and not give a damn about trying to win it.

Rubbish.

Our reserves may fair better than the "first" team

Play who you like, but not against Cheltenham ! I'll never live it down if we lose to them.

Sods law I won't be able to get a ticket, when its only about 2 miles away

I was just thinking exactly the same!
