Well done Wednesday. Some lovely penalties by them. Game was indeed dull, though.

Hereford, and at home, brilliant. Reserves with youth it is.

What was that shit camera angle they used for the penalties in that game? I've seen it used on a few penalties before, what the hells wrong with the simple and basic angle and is that one used often on Sky?

Ah bloody hell, another Yorkshire derby. Why couldn't we have just got Sunderland or someone and get knocked out.

[IAceI]

You'd probably knock us out, I wouldn't be shocked if we don't get knocked out by Brighton to be honest. A long way to travel, there'll be some younger players in as well as players who probably just can't be arsed so can see us going out. Given we've lost cup games to Brentford and Notts County over the years, I wouldn't be shocked.

Carlisle away to West Ham or (less likely) Aldershot. Don't think I'll be up for that one either! West Ham at home would have been a good money maker, but alas West Ham will probably do them over. Sadly I think Carlisle will play the better football in that match, which says something about West Ham.

Who's to say you're not going to get knocked out anyway!?

Actually, looking at our squad...forget that.

Doncaster beating Leeds already

Doesn't say much tbf

[Colly]

If anyone ever wants their team to win a game just let me know and I'll put a bet on them to lose. QPR getting beat already.

[Matt]

Nunez

This is mainly our second string we've got out tonight, I'd still expect us to beat Donny though.

Edit: Actually I take that back, it's about half and half, didn't think Howson and O'Dea were playing

[JamJamMan123]

Can somebody give me an update on Leeds? Can't seem to access the score

1-1. Hayter scored for them after 2 minutes, Nunez scored on the half hour mark.

[JamJamMan123]

Thank god, we need this win against Donny to start the season with any positivity

[Starvinho]

Swansea, Norwich and QPR all heading out as we speak, Leeds are 2-1 now.

[Matt]

Full time. Nunez brace wins it for us. Needs to be in the side at the weekend, 5 goals this season already.

[King Ellis]

Leeds beaten Doncaster
