" SEEDED COMPETITION DRAWS "

Whats your opinion on them? Completely ruined the draw for me & A reason many dislike this tournament. Just throw sides out at random like the FA Cup, its not really a "draw" otherwise is it, the big sides know they will get favourable opposition as soon as they come in, which may be good for some smaller sides and bigger sides, but then teams like us get lumped with a midweek trip to scunthorpe should we win tomorrow.

I think the seeding stops at the third round, but I agree with you.

Would be much better if anyone could get anyone. As you say, it's one of the things which make the FA Cup so interesting.

Why our match is tomorrow anyway, I have no idea. Sky normally have a game live on Tuesday and Wednesday. Can't understand why they did Wednesday and Thursday with this. Has forced us and Bristol Rovers to change our next two fixtures, so changed the date and time of five fixtures in full.
