Worthy Cup draw

Last updated : 05 October 2002 By Reggie Holdsworth
Steve McClaren has already made his intentions clear by playing a 'reserve' team in the second round, although he has also stated that the Wortington Cup is a route into Europe.

The match is scheduled for the week beginning Monday 4th November and since we play Newcastle on that Monday it would ba appropriate for McClaren to play a weakened team again.

The full draw is:

Blackburn Rovers v Walsall
West Ham United v Oldham Atheltic
Newcastle United v Everton
Wigan Athletic v Manchester City
Sheffield United v Leeds United
Crystal Palace v Coventry City
Ipswich Town v Boro
Birmingham City v Preston North End
Arsenal v Sunderland
Burnley v Tottenham Hotspur
Liverpool v Southampton
Wimbledon v Rotherham
Manchester United v Leicester City
Oxford United v Aston Villa
Chelsea v Gillingham
Fulham v Bury
