    10.06pm BST

    William Morgan gets in touch: “The tackle on new Brighton boy, Matt O’Reilly was nowt short of an abomination. Poor fella, three minutes in and knacked by Williams, nasty, nasty tackle.”

    Jay Williams was the defender who made the tackle. It was hefty and late, late, late.

    9.53pm BST

    They’re playing seven extra minutes at St Andrews, where Fulham are leading 2-0. Not long to go at Selhurst, either.

    9.50pm BST

    Goal! Crystal Palace 4-0 Norwich (Eberechi Eze, 84)

    The star man completes the rout. Nice win for Oliver Glasner after a tough start to the season. It was a solo goal, and he just shot ahead of anyone else’s anticipation. They can’t let him go, surely. Such a wonderful player.

    Billy Sharp, once the 21st century’s most prolific striker in English football – Harry Kane took that accolade – is making himself busy at Goodison for Donny.

    9.32pm BST

    Goal! Brighton 4-0 Crawley (Mark O'Mahony, 86)

    A lovely finish to complete that treble.

    9.29pm BST

    Goal! Brighton 3-0 Crawley (Adam Webster, 84)

    From six yards, the big defender nods down and Fabian Hurzeler can do no wrong. He’s 31, you know. When will Chelsea make their move?

    9.28pm BST

    The games between Barrow and Derby – at 0-0 and QPR v Luton – 1-1 –are going to penalties.

    The comeback complete against the ten men.

    Goal! Grimsby 1-3 Sheff Wed (Callum Paterson 72)

    9.13pm BST

    Doncaster are pushing on and the home fires are beginning to groan at Goodison. Dear Ashley Young made a mistake and was booked after 30 seconds to follow his red on opening day, but the League Two club can’t take advantage.

    Updated at 9.15pm BST

    9.10pm BST

    For Everton, still leading Doncaster 1-0 , Beto has just missed a header that was going begging. It was a lovely cross from the lively Iliman Ndiaye.

    9.09pm BST

    Goal! Shrewsbury 0-2 Bolton (Dion Charles 65)

    9.08pm BST

    Goal! Walsall 1-2 Huddersfield (Nathan Lowe 63)

    The ten men may be under pressure for the conclusion to that game. Lowe had missed a penalty but now Walsall are back in it.

    9.07pm BST

    Full-time: Middlesbrough 0-5 Stoke City

    Remember the names: Lewis Koumas and Million Manhoef, who both scored in Stoke’s biggest away win in 70 years.

    9.03pm BST

    My colleague Tom Davies on the Leyton Orient haters, such as they are: “Southend and Orient have traditionally had beef over the years, though mutual sympathy at our clubs’ respective ownership crises in the past decade has muted it somewhat. Stevenage seemed to get very excited at playing us when Steve Evans was in charge.”

    9.01pm BST

    Goal! Coventry 1-0 (Brandon Thomas-Asante 57) Oxford Utd

    8.56pm BST

    Goal! Everton 1-0 Doncaster (Tim Iroegbunam, 53)

    A first Everton goal of the season, and it came from the new signing, swept in from teh edge of the box.

    Updated at 9.07pm BST

    8.54pm BST

    Back underway in the 7.45pms we go

    No shocks so far…but let’s see.

    8.51pm BST

    Brighton transfer news, though we await the latest on poor Matt O’Riley.

    Related: Hürzeler confirms Ferdi Kadioglu arrival as Brighton spending passes £200m

    8.50pm BST

    Tim Smith gets in touch: “No news of the Millwall-Orient game. Any needle between these clubs (more than what is the norm for Millwall against anyone)? I cannot recall them playing each other. I see the O’s are a goal up which I’m sure is going down well with the locals.”

    Does anyone have any beef with Orient? The Daggers?

    8.48pm BST

    Peter Oh gets in touch: “I’m pretty sure Brighton are going to be among the hipsters’ favourites this season. As REM presaged, Everybody Hürz(eler).”

    So does Mary Waltz: “John, greetings from California. I guess I could be happy Everton isn’t trailing at halftime. Gawd, this is going to be a long slog this year. Sigh.” James Garner hit the post, but not great.

    Graham Randall on Steve Cooper : “Not really impressed with the team he has put out for Leicester tonight. Very dull.”

    8.44pm BST

    Goal! Middlesbrough 0-5 Stoke (Million Manhoef 69)

    Big trouble for Michael Carrick here after a slow start to the season.

    Lewis Koumas again played his part in this one.

    8.26pm BST

    Goal! Leicester 1-0 Tranmere (Jordan Ayew, 38)

    Goal! Harrogate 0-2 Preston (Sam Greenwood, pen 37)

    Updated at 8.24pm BST

    8.22pm BST

    The news from Goodison is two shots on goal, and both by Doncaster players. Beto meanwhile is at it hammer and tongs with the Donny defenders.

    8.21pm BST

    A couple of injuries at Selhurst, with Chadi Riad limping off for Palace, and Amankwah Forson for Norwich. Palace have a goal disallowed, too, Eze looked to have scored a beauty but the offside flag was off. Forson needed oxygen – a dislocated shoulder.

    8.18pm BST

    Goal! Brighton 1-0 Crawley (Simon Adringra, 31)

    Set up by Carlos Baleba, and against the run of play, and Brighton are ahead.

    Goal! Fleetwood Town 2-1 Rotherham (Ryan Graydon 29)

    8.14pm BST

    Transfer news, Liverpool sign someone….a goalie.

    8.13pm BST

    At the Amex, the word is that the better team from Sussex is Crawley. That’s what 11 changes can do to a team. Has anyone mentioned that Brighton’s manager is 31?

    8.12pm BST

    Goal! Birmingham 0-1 Fulham (Raul Jimenez, 9 pen)

    The Premier League team take the lead, after a handball from a Tom Cairney shot. The Mexican veteran steps up to slot home.

    Updated at 8.50pm BST

    8.10pm BST

    Jordan Pickford has just been asked to make his first save as Doncaster build up a head of steam. Gibson’s free-kick asked the England man to make the save.

    Goal! Blackburn 1-0 Blackpool (Makhtar Gueye, 21 pen)

    Updated at 8.08pm BST

    7.57pm BST

    Sadly, that’s it for O’Riley , he’s lasted four minutes, and been carried from the field by the physio. His ankle is the problem. Mark O’Mahony is on in his stead.

    7.54pm BST

    Bad news from Brighton: new signing Matt O’Riley has gone down on a heavy challenge. It looks as though he may have to go off, just a few minutes into his debut since his £30m move from Celtic.

    7.52pm BST

    Around the grounds, there’s been tributes paid to Sven Goran Eriksson, another name to conjure the year 2000. At Brighton, Enciso has gone close. just one of their hugely talented players that Fabian Hurzeler has to hand.

    Updated at 8.16pm BST

    7.47pm BST

    And an early goal, with Rotherham taking the lead at Fleetwood. Jamie McCart got it.

    7.46pm BST

    The 7.45 kick-offs get underway in the Carabao Cup

    What football maguc awaits us?

    7.44pm BST

    Joe Pearson gets in touch as those 7.45 kick-offs approach: “I don’t know if prog metal is in your wheelhouse, but whenever I see the words ‘here we are’, I get an immediate earworm of Fates Warning’s ‘A Pleasant Shade of Gray, Part VI’. The song also includes a lyric that may be running through Sean Dyche’s head right now: ‘But I often wonder what else could be. And I still dream of running away’”

    7.43pm BST

    That early Stoke goal was set up by Lewis Koumas , son of Jason, who was a Tranmere player at the time of that 2000 final but missed out on the final. In football, it’s all connected.

    7.38pm BST

    Brighton, top of the Premier League , are also unveiling a new signing, Ferdi Kadioglu, who you may recall from the Euros, ahead of their game with Crawley.

    7.36pm BST

    Watford, who face Plymouth , have made a big signing in the Italian veteran, Angelo Ogbonna.

    7.30pm BST

    Birmingham, who have made a great start to their League One campaign, eye a shock at St Andrews. Chris Davies may well be a manager going places at Blues, who have recovered well from last season’s Wayne Rooney folly.

    7.28pm BST

    The first goal of the night! That early game between Boro and Stoke is still 0-1, Stoke’s Emre Tezgel got it.

    7.19pm BST

    The major team news: Fulham make 11 changes, Leicester make eight changes, with no Vardy. Tranmere’s goalie is Joe Murphy – he played in that 2000 final linked below – he’s 43 now. Sean Dyche names a strong Everton team, and Palace name Marc Guehi despite all that transfer speculation.

    Preamble

    So here we are, and there we were , to coin a popular phrase of 30 years ago. This is history. Yes, Sean Dyche may have smiled this morning at the news of the big comeback but he’s got a right job on. Lose at home to Doncaster and the Goodison groan will probably be audible in Heaton Park, let alone Stanley Park. Such has been Everton’s terrible start to the season that match is the headline fixture of a meaty Tuesday night of action in the tournament that is often more fun than it’s given credit for.

    All 7.45 UK time kick-offs, unless stated.
