Here’s what fans are saying as EFL confirm the two games to be televised in the 24/25 Carabao Cup First Round…
@harryxafc: Leeds and Wrexham, who could’ve predicted that?
@CafcJake: no one wants to watch wrexham
@des_ht: What a surprise Leeds again 👍
@mthw11: Leeds vs Middlesbrough is a terrible pick. An all championship tie, plenty of lower league vs championship ties for a chance of an upset.
@SportGrillBlog: Anyone think #SHUWXM is a lazy @SkyFootball pick as the first of two Northern ties selected for main channel coverage, as surely #Bromley first #CarabaoCup game would be more attractive and covers Southern Section too?
@FPL__Courtney: Just call us Sky Sports Leeds
@bethgabriel_: As a Leeds fan I will tell you we are truly sick of being on Sky just as much as the rest of you are 👍
@Lee_1472: Wrexham and Leeds to be shown on sky sports? That’s a new one
@L_wattz: the meat riding of Leeds and Wrexham continues
@connormiller195: Who would’ve guessed
@Wallsy1871: Wrexham of course
@Jord9393: Oh look, it’s fucking Leeds & Wrexham 😑
@Joeh_1993: What a surprise Sky Sports Wrexham continues.
@LTFC_Gaz: Wrexham, nobody would’ve guessed that 🤣
@DanLove866: What a shock 😂
@drfc_ben: Leeds and Wrexham what a shock
@HazSTFC: Acting shocked 😮
