Should sack it... Lack of interest from managers, players and now even fans. Wenger and Fergie started it by fielding weakened teams and now other managers feel the same way about it...Norwich made 11 changes today and got thumped 4-0.
Re: Should sack it... Wolves made 11 changes and won 4-0 and West Brom also made 11 changes and won 4-1.
I agree The top teams treat the FA Cup the same way so what chance has the League Cup got? I think a lot of people nowadays are actually glad when their team gets knocked out. Not like 1981/2 when we played Liverpool, their team was full-strength:- Grobbelaar, Neal, A.Kennedy, Thompson, Whelan, Hansen, Dalglish, Lawrenson, Rush, McDermott, Souness. What a team that was and we held them to 0-0 and had the better chances to win. Crowd was 33707 as well.
Re: I agree Liverpool were European champions as well and we gave them a scare! Remember getting to the away game at half time and still ended up at the front. Amazing atmosphere
Re: I agree Get this swear filter removed! Can't even write scr.apped! Should be able to differentiate between the swear word and those letters within a word....surely it's simple in the code that you include the word with a space at beginning and end!
