tblowers9 0 Posted August 12, 2014 Just curious and cannot find an answer anywhere, why us and Fulham seemingly got a bye for the first round but Cardiff play tomorrow night? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

? 20 Posted August 12, 2014 There''s only two byes, so they go to the teams who got relegated from the Premier League in 19th and 18th position. The side that comes bottom has to play in the first round. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

splutcho 173 Posted August 12, 2014 At first I welcomed this, but actually, I would have quite liked a game tonight as a chance to get back on track. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Bill 1,788 Posted August 12, 2014 ie Exeter away, which far from getting us back on track would merely cost us money and risk another injury/booking Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

splutcho 173 Posted August 12, 2014 You do have a point City1st, but weighing up both sides, I''d still have rather had some more game time for the team and Adams to sort themselves out. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
