Surely the draw itself has nothing to do with Carabao?
League Cup 5th Round Draw | Bristol City V United | worth waiting for

This whole competition has been a joke from the start. Stupid sponsor that nobody's heard of, making the draws at stupid times, and then when they're at normal times they've still managed to feck it up by announcing the wrong games or drawing them in the wrong order. The FA have done everything in their power to devalue the League Cup and turn it into a cash cow with almost zero credibility, and they'll still sit there and wonder why the attendances for this "competition" are a complete joke until the final.
What exactly are Twitter working on?? Can't they just do the draw and tweet the results??
The feck is taking them so long?
For once, you can’t blame the FA. This is the Football League.
The FA are a shitshow but they've got nothing to do with the league cup.
People would probably argue it's fixed.
But that would be too easy. Clearly this will take 100 engineers to solve.
It would be really funny if we actually draw a team that's been knocked out! Imagine the embarrassment. They couldn't organize a Fire in a match factory!
Could just use Instagram live. Feck... They could snap chat it for all I care
Wait what does Twitter have to do with the draw? Can't they just do the draw on camera on Tweet about it later.
I'm not complaining - just got home now so at least I can see the draw as it unfolds, even if it's just the Carabao cup.
Just periscope it FFS
Move it to Facebook.
Even Tom from Myspace isn't Carabao's friend.
What a farce 
You guys are actually waiting for this?

Guys, we have sentences involving the term"twitter engineers" now. We can't beat this.
They kept trying till all top teams didnt play each other.
What a fecking farce
How many fast forwarded to the end?
Good fixture for us.. Shaping up for a very exciting Semi Final.
So after only a couple of hours they got the biscuit tin and the raffle tickets out. Great work.

I very much suspect this is the case, very shady.
Good fixtures for the competition overall though...
All the top teams avoid each other
Can see Leicester and West Ham causing upsets if City and Arsenal play weakened sides.
Was it seeded again?
Good draw for us!
All that, and it's a pretty shit draw.
Should be a good night in Bristol though.

How amateurish did that draw look? Looked like it was recorded in someone's living room. And the presenter didn't know how to use a microphone. And pronounced H "heich." Anyway, a good draw for us.

Dream draw for me that! Got family in Bristol so would be an ideal away trip to Trashton Gate if I can get a ticket in the ballot. Everything crossed...
They finally heard you
Brilliant draw, that. Should be a fantastic game. Would have been perfect if one of the other ties had two of the big boys facing each other but oh well.
That twitters for the birds anyway!
Pre-recorded video, nothing sketchy about this at all.
