Birmingham away.

Always get boring af draws

St Eve

We never take it seriously so it might as well be home to Hounslow

St Eve

Also why are Birmingham in the south when Villa and Wolves are in the north?


Somerset Fulham

Meh.

It's a distraction to be honest, which is a sad thing to say.  It's not even as though beating a big side means actually beating a big side these days.

I wonder who we will draw in the 3rd Round.

We have played Birmingham City just the once in the League Cup in October 2004, at St Andrews. Won 1-0.

I would imagine to help the fixture lists.

Always remember the 1975 FA Cup semi final and how confident the Birmingham fans were of victory on that day against a second division Fulham. Mitchel scored that magnificent goal which raised our hopes and we then went on to the final.
Tempted to say a repeat would be nice but in all honesty it would be a distraction, all that matters right now are championship points.

The Carabao cup is a pointless waste of time. Mixed teams of reserves, youths and fringe players. They should ditch it.

Can't disagree with that, I was relieved it wasn't a home fixture if I'm honest.
