I know we're out of it but still think this warrants a post. The powers that be (namely Shaun Harvey), have decided to host the draw at the ungodly hour of 4:15am in the morning in order to satisfy the sponsor's demands so it can watched in China. Well I guess that's all that matters isn't it? As long as the Football League keep the sponsors happy. Stuff what the fans think. In fact, we might might as well go the whole hog and when it comes to the final allocate zero percent of tickets to the two club's supporters and just dish the 90,000 tickets out to sponsors, VIPs, big-wigs and various other hangers on with no affiliation to the clubs that are playing. That seems to be the way it's heading. We f*cked up the EFL Trophy last year, now let's see if we can f*ck up the EFL Cup as well. www.dailymail.co.uk/sport/football/article-4808916/Carabao-Cup-round-draw-place-Beijing.html

At least it gives them enough time to correct the mistakes that will no doubt happen in the draw before any of the real fans wake up for work.

Harvey must go.
He keeps dicking around with everything just so he can put his own mark on the EFL. The sooner he's whisked off to work for the NFL or something like that the better. He's only in it for himself

Do people in south east Asia really get that excited by the draw for the League cup that they want to watch it live? I can't imagine whole city's, towns and villages coming to a standstill in a different continent thousands of miles away to see who Man U reserves will play in the competition formerly known as the Rumbelows cup.
The Football League and its competitions will always be an English preoccupation, their is no big pot of foreign gold waiting even with the few games that the big six reserves play in the Milk Cup.
For the promise of a few extra quid FL clubs are allowing a dickhead like Harvey audition for the job to replace Scudamore at the premier league.

I hope this isn't a whoosh waiting to happen, but as from this year known the League Cup is known as the Carabou Cup.

Why not go the whole hog and have the games played with a 04:15 kickoff. Actually I think I might contact Mr Harvey to suggest it.
