CC to be redrawn later today due to the dropouts, two ties to be played with the other 6 clubs to get byes to the quarter finals.

Wire Away guaranteed.

Had to be done and it seems the fairest way of sorting it. Fingers crossed for a bye or a winnable fixture, although as pointed out it’ll probably be Wire again. Wigan, Wire and challenge cup fixtures just seem to drawn to each other.

Anybody else think it should just be cancelled?

Agreed

I think the draw is to take place later this week. The finer details about when and where the draw happens is due to be announced later today

Probably get Wire at home but play it at Wire.

Two ties will be drawn out, the remainder get a bye in to the quarter final

Any idea what time it is being made?

Thought it would be done by now.

I agree.
Couldn’t care less to be honest. Just scrap the thing, for this year.
Mind you, the final - if behind closed doors - will be a similar atmosphere to most modern Wembley finals.

It's tomorrow at 6.30PM, on BBC website and OurLeague App.

Cheers thought it was being redrawn today according to the earlier press releases.

Yup,just seems pointless at this time to me as bad as the CC has been devalued over the years this season just makes a mockery of the grand old tournament

I think pressure from BBC, Sky and the Sponsors will be justification enough to continue with the tournament.

Game has lost enough cash over this period would be madness to turn down more and also reduce our only domestic league exposure on terrestrial tv.

I only hope that the Championship and Division One clubs are compensated for not getting the chance to participate in the competition.
