    If we draw West Ham away we actually play them at home due to the olympics taking place

    Just had a look and with Preston being knocked out we could be the last seeded team.

    Hopefully not. I wouldn't wish an away day at Leicester on anyone, I despise their fans.

    That would be a shame if that happened as I would like to see how they convert the stadium into a football ground. Been several times to watch athletics - including the World Championships on Saturday and cant quite picture how it works as a football ground. Its a great stadium for athletics though

    It's live on Sky Sports tomorrow night at the end of the Bury v Sunderland EFL game.
    That kicks off at 7-45 pm so if there's no extra time it's going to be on around 10pm.

    If Sunderland win they will be seeded. If Bury win we will be the last seed.

    We have tried to work it out at work and we think we will be seeded whatever the result with Sunderland.

    If there are 7 premier league teams in Europe, these come in at round 3, it would need an additional 15 teams to make up the 2nd round draw, this being the 13 remaining Premier league teams plus Middlesbrough and Hull.

    Keep with me!! There will be 50 teams in round 2 so therefore 25 seeds, this would be the 15 Premier or ex Premier league teams plus the next best 10 on last years places, that would be to 13th in the Championship. However Preston are out who came 9th so that would extend it down to 14th place, and that was Barnsley!!! So we should be seeded whatever.

    Another complication could be are Derby seeded or not? as they don't play until the 2nd round date. All things being equal we think we will be seeded.

    If Sunderland lose then it's certain. If they win it depends on whatever they decide for Derby. I think.

    Seven minutes left to play Sunderland are 1-0 up at Bury.
