Saints Draw Stevenage In Capital One Cup

Saints have found out who their opponents will be in the 2nd round of the newly titled league cup or as its now known the Capital One Cup.

Saints will visit Stevenage in the week begining 27th August in the 2nd round of the Capital One Cup, formerly known as the Carling or League Cup.

An away tie at Stevenage will please many regular away followers as it will give them a chance to vist a ground that Saints have never played on before, at least competitvely and its a reasonable drive around the M25 which coming home should be no more than a couple of hours.

It would be nice to see Saints make a serious challenge on one of the cup competitions this season.

Late Drama at Hull: Leeds Held to a Draw After Meslier's Costly Error
Leeds seemed to be cruising to victory after turning the game around in the second half, but this match will be remembered for the error from Meslier that allowed Hull City back into the game, and ultimately cost us another two points on the road.

Fatigue or Fortune? Leeds Held to Draw by Resilient Blackburn
It was a disappointing end to the holiday season as Leeds took most of the game to break down a stubborn Blackburn Rovers side, and then allowed our opponents to grab a late equaliser. It won’t be a game that will live long in the memory.

Top of the Table: Leeds finish 2024 at the summit after Stunning Team Goal!

Farke Seeks Improvement Despite Comfortable Win in the Fog
Even though we went back to the top of the table Daniel Farke thought we should have won more comfortably, but we were more than good enough to beat a woeful Stoke City.

Derby Awaydaze
Our first visit to Derby County four five years is at 5.45pm tomorrow, which has of course been dictated by Sky Sports. We’re not famous any more!
