Liverpool lineup http://www.liverweb.org.uk/report.asp?rec_id=4302</p> <table cellpadding="4" width="100%" border="0"><tbody><tr><td style="width: 20%" valign="top">Liverpool</td><td valign="top">Grobbelaar, Neal, A.Kennedy, Thompson, Whelan, Hansen, Dalglish, Lawrenson, Rush, McDermott, Souness</td></tr><tr valign="top"><td>Unused Subs</td><td>Lee</td></tr></tbody></table></p> </p> Attendance 33,707. So only about 13000 scousers then ?</p>
only 33,707 there so...... i think our away supports for that game as increased from whisper to whisper over the years if thats the official attendance.
RE: only 33,707 there so...... I personally believe that was the attendance at kick-off time. Most didn't get in til well after.</p> Same at Boro 2 years earlier. I was at both and I always thought we took just as many to Boro.</p>
16,000 scousers! We had the whole Anfield Road end which was standing at the time, the whole Kemlyn Road side which was a single tier seating area holding 6,600 and part of the main stand. It has always been said we took 17,000 to the game.
RE: only 33,707 there so...... Yer deluded Andy Mac!! We took around 7k to M/Boro (well over twice that to Anfield). The main bulk of BFC fans were behind the goal and in the right hand corner if you were facing the goal. There was also pockets of BFC fans around the ground but no way the same as at Anfield. They were however both fantastic away followings and to the younger contributors who were not there, I will smuggly say 'You don't know what you missed'. Sadly, we may never see that sort of away following again with ground restrictions these days.
Hi I'm from the Liverweb site that gets mentioned within the thread and wanted to add in the Barnsley lineup. Can anyone help with the lineups from the two games at all please and scorer in the replay much obliged Andy - Liverweb As for the travelling figure - it's probably about right as back in those days we were regularly lethargic when it comes to attending cup games. If you notice as well we played Ipswich in the semi after you and the crowd was only about 1000 more.
For you non believers!.......... The official estimate was 16,000 Barnsley supporters at Anfield... Nothing at all to do with Chineses whispers etc. At that time the Scousers used to get really **** gates and very rarely sold out their games. I can well recall them recording less than 15,000 for a couple of League Cup ties in the eighties.
Barnsley's line up was...i think.... horn, joyce, chambers, cooper, banks, mccarthy, evans, walker, aylott, mchale, barrowclough, sub glavin.
Our line up was 1) Bobby Horn 2) Joe Joyce 3) Phil Chambers 4) Neil Cooper 5) Ian Banks 6) Mick McCarthy 7) Ian Evans 8) Colin Walker 9) Trevor Aylott 10) Ray McHale 11) Stewart Barrowclough 12) Gordon Boyd. Ronnie Glavin replaced Boyd as substitute for the replay. Colin Walker scored our goal and Graeme Souness, Kenny Dalglish & David Johnson ( I think !) replied for Liverpool.
RE: just got the sub wrong, gordon boyd, whatever happened to him i wonder?? nt After only making a couple of appearances for us he was transferred to Scnuthorpe where he played 11 times before being released and signing for non-league Goole Town.
Was on the kop for that game and could not believe how serious the Liverpool fans were about winning. There was no "poor little lower league club" at all. No applause for our efforts at the end. No suggestion by anyone on the kop other than we were lucky or dirty. So much for scouse humour
Just wanted to say thanks for the lineup As one reply went many a cup game at Anfield went unwatched. It just came at a time when no-one seemed bothered about going. It was common across the games full stop. Only diff these days are auto cup schemes that force attendances up which in terms of say the Havant game coming up is great news as it forces gate receipts up and does at least give them the dosh they'd dream of. I don't even want to consider any other dreams they might have of winning. Still Worcester City did us back in the 50's so I'm not counting any chickens. Andy
