cplpeters1900 Posted March 3, 2010 Share Posted March 3, 2010 Right i'm Newcastle and played chelsea in the 3rd round of the league cup, take there FULL STRENGTH side to extra time, only to lose, in the next round i notice Forest have beaten them 2-0 aet, so i check there team, and they have gone on to play a second strength side, surely this is a bug, as big clubs dont play a full strength side one round and not the next?

Dees-Blake Posted March 3, 2010 Share Posted March 3, 2010 They most likely considered Forest to be less of a threat than you, thus why they played a weaker team against Forest... makes sense really. Or perhaps they played a league game 3 days before the Forest game and all their players had poor fitness... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oxford_Canary Posted March 3, 2010 Share Posted March 3, 2010 Playing devil's advocate they might have had an easier schedule around the time they played you, but I have to agree that it seems unlikely they'd play full strength in an early round. Clearly it's taking a while to work out the kinks in the system that makes big clubs play their second string in the less important competitions.

Paul Edwards Posted March 3, 2010 Share Posted March 3, 2010 i can see why that might happen - other games, injuries, busy schedule etc and depending on who they see as a threat Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
