League Cup 2022/23 Carabao Cup R2 draw

Would not surprie me if palace sold out their allocation. We need to match that. I have vague memories of them doing us over on and off the pitch way back in the days of the thin blue line in the LR. IE the seventies!

I remember seeing my first female skinhead in the LR against Palace. All the gear, boots, braces, Harrington jacket.
 
It’s probably the biggest club we could have got in the southern section, it’s a very decent draw. I found it really bizarre that the presenter kept mentioning ‘great ties’ like Colchester v Brentford, FGR v Fulham etc but failed to say anything about us v Palace which, on the face of it, looks a cracking match up.

Bolton v Villa I think will be the TV game but if there’s two matches on then we have a chance but they will probably do the FGR one, more of a story there with all the eco stuff etc.
 
They don’t have to pick a tie from the southern section for tv, people on here seem to have got a bit confused by the fact that the draw is split in two, all the tv fixtures will come from the northern section where there are four more attractive fixtures. Everton, Villa, Newcastle and Leicester are all bigger clubs playing our level opposition or lower away, the two televised games will come from those four matches.
 
Thanks for providing the clear rationale behind that 😎. I think all four ties have a chance of being on the telly and don’t see why us v Palace is more attractive than the others.
We’re a bigger draw than any of the other lower league teams you mention.

I have a good memory for these sort of off the pitch things and have absolutely zero recollection of this, so don't think it happened. I've also never as much as had a conversation with anyone about "getting done over" by Palace. Ever.

Glenn Murray picked our tie out on the ITV highlights show.
