EFL Cup 17/18 December

[Thomas Hearns]

Are the semis still two legs ?

Did Villa really only have 11 shots on goal?
Thought it was more than that.

no, it was Littlewoods that had 11 cum shots on the pitch. Youngest team ever in the istree of football.

If it's a big semi it's 3 legs; )

Only the Dippers could play their youth team, get thrashed 5-0 and then have everyone in the media talk about how well they played. Had we played our youth team there would be no end to the articles saying we were disrespecting the competition etc. etc.

Wednesday

Everton v Leicester City
19.45

Oxford United v Manchester City Sky
19.45

Manchester United v Colchester United
20.00

At what minute do you think they'll state one of our players costs more than the entire Oxford team? My guess is 4th min after Mahrez (if he plays) shoots from distance and it goes wide.

Lol. It's pre written in their script. Doesn't bother me anymore. David and Goliath n' all that. That's the magic of the cup. Not magical getting spanked away at Halifax and Shrewsbury as we once were though. But for the smaller clubs it's s chance to dream. I walked away from Wigan final sodden wet through, disappointed but kind of pleased that that Wigan fans had their wildest dreams come true, just as we did when Yaya won us the cup in the Stoke final.

I've said it many times that we cannot be expectant, even though it's difficult not to be nowadays with the squad talent. I think every cup we lift is a bonus for all those barren years of disappointment going to Gay Meadow and The Shay, and several other minnow clubs we went out to.

The minute the programme starts.

Disrespectful fuckers......oh hang on.

What a shit things to do to kids that obviously aren’t ready for that level of football.
Or is that just when we do it?

 

[I'm With Stupid]

Like clockwork, Liverpool deliberately get knocked out of a cup. How many of their original 7 trophies are they down to now?
