Clarets in and out of County Cups

Last updated : 07 October 2014 By Tony Scholes

In terms of the Youth Cup, there will be no Turf Moor appearance in this competition in 2014/15 no matter how far we go in the competition. We've received a bye in the first round but have then been drawn away in all subsequent rounds, should we get through, all the way to the final.

The second round, when we face the Seasiders, is the quarter-final with the winners facing Tranmere or Bury, who meet in the quarters, in the semi-final.

The full draw for the competition is

First Round

1. OLDHAM v FLEETWOOD - OLDHAM won on a walkover
2. ROCHDALE v MORECAMBE

Quarter-Final

4. WIGAN v PRESTON
