Spurs away. Not for the faint hearted.
What about the biggest club in the world Leeds when they were top of the league? It dont get bigger than that!

Villa away in the league cup (before they were really shit) was a cracking trip.
It's a ****ing farce, not being drawn on live TV and at a time that suits the uk?? Idiot. It's it's a Far East advertising project on a product that doesn't belong to them.
Regarding the draw, the EFL have said: “We understand that not everyone will agree on the timing of this week’s Round Three Draw, but in staging in this way it will give the competition both the maximum exposure in the UK, Chinese and South East Asian markets. This is not only an important factor for the EFL but also our new sponsors Carabao, who, like ourselves, plan to use the growing global appeal of the competition to reach new audiences.
“Once the logistics have been completed in Beijing, the UK will be waking up and the breakfast media will be able to report and get reaction on the 16 ties that will take place next month, which we feel is an interesting move away from the usual post-game evening draws.
“The Round Three draw itself is not being televised live in China or anywhere else but the EFL will be providing full coverage across its Carabao Cup Twitter feed, with news and reaction as it happens.
“Our decision to go to China is part of a strategic plan to grow the EFL internationally and specifically boost profile and exposure in ASEAN markets. A number of potentially significant meetings are being held around the draw that we envisage will deliver a benefit to all 72 clubs of the EFL.
“As part of those meetings the EFL will stage its first summit in Asia, where potential sponsors and investors from the region will gather to be briefed on the wider opportunities the EFL can provide. This will include the showcasing of the new iFollow international streaming platform which successfully launched at the start of the season.
“We now look forward to this work developing over the course of the next few days and taking further shape in the coming weeks and months.”
That's the biggest load of marketing bollocks I've ever read and marketing folk specialise in bollocks
Sponsors are Chinese, I do believe.
POD ?
If British football fans, by and large, don't really care too much about the League Cup, then are Chinese 'fans' even aware of its existence??
Haha they're not even showing it on TV in China
This is a bit of a fix the mess they've made of the previous 2 draws I wouldn't trust them without seeing it, they may as well just ask the Chinese kents who they would like to play whoHaha they're not even showing it on TV in China
It's been a complete shambles and embarrassment is round 3 south and north or are we all in the same pot?
Is Malky Mackay doing the draw
It should be all in the same lit. No north/south and no seeds.
I assumed that too, but Carabao are Thai.
