urban.spaceman Posted 14 August 2018 Posted 14 August 2018 Plenty of rule changes this season for the Cowabunga Cup: - Extra-time will no longer be played in any round except for the final; games will instead go straight to penalties - ABBA has been scrapped. - Seeding has been removed for the first two rounds but round one is still regionalised into North and South. - VAR is in use but only at Premier League grounds. Second round draw is on Thursday. This week's Carabina Cup ties: Tonight: Northern section Blackpool v Barnsley Carlisle United v Blackburn Rovers Crewe Alexandra v Fleetwood Town Grimsby Town v Rochdale Leeds United v Bolton Wanderers Macclesfield Town v Bradford City Mansfield Town v Accrington Stanley Middlesbrough v Notts County Nottingham Forest v Bury Oldham Athletic v Derby County Port Vale v Lincoln City Preston North End v Morecambe Rotherham United v Wigan Athletic Scunthorpe United v Doncaster Rovers Sheffield United v Hull City Shrewsbury Town v Burton Albion Sunderland v Sheffield Wednesday - Thursday Tranmere Rovers v Walsall Southern section Bristol City v Plymouth Argyle Bristol Rovers v Crawley Town Cambridge United v Newport County Cheltenham Town v Colchester United Exeter City v Ipswich Town Millwall v Gillingham Milton Keynes Dons v Charlton Athletic Norwich City v Stevenage Oxford United v Coventry City Portsmouth v AFC Wimbledon Queens Park Rangers v Peterborough United Reading v Birmingham City Southend United v Brentford Swindon Town v Forest Green Rovers West Bromwich Albion v Luton Town Wycombe Wanderers v Northampton Town Yeovil Town v Aston Villa
grobyfox1990 Posted 14 August 2018 Posted 14 August 2018 So the second round draw isn't divided based on region? Anyone can draw anyone?

Nalis Posted 14 August 2018 Posted 14 August 2018 Not sure if its the reason or not but 90 mins then straight to penos will be good for travelling away fans.
StanSP Posted 14 August 2018 Posted 14 August 2018 bit unfair that only Premier League grounds get VAR.

UpTheLeagueFox Posted 14 August 2018 Posted 14 August 2018 I'm at Notts Forest tonight. Their keeper came out flapping for a free kick and the Bury centre half glanced in. 11 changes for Forest from Saturday's game - not an inexperienced team of kids - Michael Dawson, Ben Watson, Sam Byram, Michael Hefele, Jack Robinson all starting
UpTheLeagueFox Posted 14 August 2018 Posted 14 August 2018 Forest keeper who flapped for the Bury goal has now been sent off. Oh what a shame for them....
spacemunky Posted 14 August 2018 Posted 14 August 2018 Notts are up on Boro! Edit: Well, we were briefly
StanSP Posted 14 August 2018 Posted 14 August 2018 some very cool and calm penalties being taken by Notts County. Scoring so nonchalantly

spacemunky Posted 14 August 2018 Posted 14 August 2018 Just now, isaidno said: Unlucky Notts. Nice 4-0 for Lincoln. Congrats on the win!

ealingfox Posted 14 August 2018 Posted 14 August 2018 Absolutely fuming if you're Bury. Not having ET makes it a lot easier to shithouse your way through.
MC Prussian Posted 28 August 2018 Posted 28 August 2018 Ten-man Wimbledon still lead West Ham 1-0, whilst the mighty Leeds are 2-0 down against Preston, who are also playing with a man less on the pitch. Oh, and Cardiff are losing at home vs. Norwich.
