    A chance for @Braziliance to see Piergianni even though we’ve been promoted 
    Great news. Get to watch one of the best defenders league 1 has had the past 5 years again, and he will undoubtedly be one of the toughest players we come up against all season.

    A real treat.

    Shame they didn't stick us in the Preliminary Round. Given our historic record in the competition it would have made sense to get our one game in the League Cup, done and out of the way
    TBF we got to the quarter final only a couple years ago. 
    Must have been a blue moon, because the majority of our time in the League Cup has surely got us as one of the worst in its history
    The club with the worst cup history is QPR. I looked it up and posted it on here not so long ago.

    But QPR actually won the darn thing, albeit a long time ago (1967).  Surely that alone makes their record better than ours?

    The football season officially kicks off tonight with Barnet Vs Newport in the preliminary round of the League Cup. 

    For some reason the Accrington Vs Oldham game though is not until next Tuesday.

    Whoever wins tonight will be at home to Millwall in the first round.

    It'll be interesting how Barnet and Newport approach this game. It might give them an advantage for when the league starts on Saturday having a competitive game as the final warmup match.

    Seen a few pundits tipping Barnet to do well, and possibly even make the playoffs. Promoted sides generally do perform quite well in League Two so don't know how much is based off that versus actually knowing about the quality in their side.

    Saw a stat from one of them that also said something like only 2 of the last 12 sides relegated from League One have even finished in the top half of League Two the following season.

    They had a decent side,  but are no moneybags sleeping giant. Upper midtable would be a good season for them.

    Just seen the result. Barnet were 2-0 down in the 97th minute. Scored in the 97th, then 99th to make it 2-2, only to then lose 4-2 on pens.

    Wasnt just the goals that were stunning, but the Newport 'keeper pulled off some great saves as well going by the Highlights, looks like Barnet battered them second half, feels a shame that only one could go through.

    Out of interest, what sort of attendance were you expecting last night?

    I was surprised it was that high.
