Hiya, chaps! Some score updates from the Carabao tonight:
Stoke City 1-0 Gillingham
Fulham 2-0 Sheffield Wednesday
Millwall 0-1 Burnley
Preston 0-0 Brighton
I have to admit that going out of this competition last week sort of knocked the stuffing out of me regarding the Carabao.
Good afternoon, Bob. Thanks for getting us started.I don't blame you. not enthused about the competition and our United is still in it
Joelinton gives the Toon the lead at Morecambe and None Too Wise. Almiron with the assist
Nice open start to the match at the KP and the Foxes have had a couple of chances to score
Pepe tackled for a corner by Fuchs off nice one touch passing. Corner from Pepe headed away then high and wide from Kolasinac
Hiya, David - hope you're doing well today.
Toon two up at Morecambe and None Too Wise. Seems like Dave picked the right match
Yes I am . Thank you for asking. How are you, Bob?
Nice run and pass from Saka , but nobody to divert it in or else the Gunners would have taken the lead
Almiron with the second Toon goal
Chelsea takes the lead vs Barnsley
Tammy Abraham with the goal
The Toon look set for a trip to Newport next week
A repeat of the Championship Final looks likely with the Cottagers lead
Toffees take the lead at Fleetwood Mac. A Brazi combo as Bernard assisted Rich Arlison
One of the Murphy twins puts the Toon three up a Morecambe and Really foolish as the rout is on
Meanwhile Saka went down looking for a penalty under the challenge of Almarty . He made the most of it and the ref agrees with me
Danny Ward does well to save a curling shot from Reiss Nelson
The Toon not singing a Barber Shop Quartet but up by that at Morecambe and Really Dumb. Joelinton with his second of the match
Kai Havertz with his first Chelsea goal as they g o two up vs Barnsley

A cross from Damari Gray is cleared by Sideshow Bob to local prep school, Dewsbury-Hall and he drags a long range shot well wide

Doing alright, mate. Busy week. I've somehow gotten entangled in a Workers Comp claim by my former secretary. I was deposed earlier in the week and now have to give testimony on her behalf at a formal hearing tomorrow. It's taking up a lot of my time!
Rich Arlison at the double as the Toffees are two up at Fleetwood Mac
It's really weird not to have the fake crowd noise tonight. Just the sound of boot on ball and the random shouting from players and coaches.
YIKES! Sorry to read about that. Doesn't sound like a lot of fun. Hopes this gets resolved soon.
David Luiz down in a heap receiving treatment now.
Sideshow Bob down as he is partially to blame . Jay Leno went to gather a cross and in late night comical humor. He got a knock on the back of the head when he should have been out of the way
OH! The Foxes nearly took the lead and a really Presidential effort as the Fourth President chipped Jay Leno and it came off the post. Nice pass from the local prep school , Dewsbury-Hall
This is the only scoreless match while Dave is listening to the highest scoring match
Not very Presidential , but the Fourth President was our shortest , so understandable that he heads well wide off a great cross from Albrighton
Not sure either side really wants to proceed in this competition.
Actually, this is a much more open match than the one yesterday from Bedfordshire
YIKES ! Isaac Hayden puts the Toon a quintet up at ten man Morecambe and Really Stupid.
It's 0-0 at the half at the KP in a half where the closest either team came to scoring was a chip from the Fourth President that came off the post
Half time at Filbert Street - 0-0
Not that exciting.
Alexis McAllister puts the Seagulls two up at Deepdale and it appears that United will play at the AMEX twice in a matter of days
The second half is underway from the KP
Burnley goes two up at the Evil Den in the final minutes of that match
Vyjdra with the goal assisted by former Evil Lion, Chris Wood and now that's a final score
Fleetwood Mac pulled it back to 1-2 vs the Toffees then the three minutes later the Toffees scored to take a 1-3 lead
Some final scores:
Cottagers 2 Not a Big Club 0
Evil Lions 0 Burnley 2
PNE 0 Seagulls 2
Potters 1 Gils 0
Ross Barkley puts Chelsea three up vs Barnsley
Some ties for next week:

Burnley vs Citeh or Cherries
Potters at Bristol City or Villa
Seagulls vs United just days after this is a Prem fixture
Jamaal Lascelles puts the Toon half a dozen up at ten man Morecambe and Really Useless
I'm off home to enjoy the rest of the action. Cheerio!
GOAL !!! THE GUNNERS TAKE THE LEAD WITH A BIZARRE SCRAPPY FINISH . SAKA PLAYED PEPE WIDE RIGHT . HE FORCED A CLOSE RANGE SAVE FROM DANNY WARD THEN HE HAD A SHOT FROM A NARROW ANGLE COME OFF THE POST AND BOUNCE OFF OF FUCHS FOR AN OG.
Cheers, Bob. Hope to chat with you in a few minutes

Like for like as Bellerin is on for Saka

Into a trio of stoppage time minutes
The Toon so thirsty they go seven up at ten man Morecambe and anything but wise
Moise Kean with a rare Toffees goal as they take a 2-5 lead at Highbury
