Town Ball 11 in Carabao Cup Draw Wednesday, 30th Aug 2023 12:51 Town are ball number 11 in this evening’s draw for round three of the Carabao Cup.
The Blues progressed to the third round of the competition for the first time in eight years via last night’s 3-1 on-penalties victory at Reading following a 2-2 draw.
The win was only Town's fourth in a penalty shoot-out in their history, the most recent at Peterborough Papa Johns Trophy in December 2019. Prior to that, there was a League Cup victory at Shrewsbury in 2009 and a Zenith Data Systems success in October 1991.
The draw, which isn’t regionalised unlike previous rounds, takes place this evening live on Sky Sports Football following the Doncaster-Everton tie from around 10.15pm.
The third round sees the Premier League sides who have qualified for Europe come into the competition.
Ties will be played in the week commencing Monday 25th September.

Does the win over Colchester in the group stages of the Papa John’s Trophy count as a penalty shoot out win? |  | |

Didn't we beat Colchester United on penalties in the 21/22 papa John's trophy group stage - round 3 at Portman Road following a 0-0 draw in normal time? |  | |

If we get a PL team at home it would be interesting to see if our team selection policy changes. It would be a good barometer for where we want to be. But I suspect we will be drawn against Mansfield away. |  | |
