Match Thread League Cup Third Round vs Sunderland (H) - THERE ARE NO STREAMS FFS

[GwladysBlue]

The longest cheer for player's names being read out by the announcer in football history.

This actually brought a smile to my face when I saw this fixture. With all that's gone on between the clubs, be good to have Sunderland.


Now, saying that, I hope we best them 1897-0.

At home. Will be fine.

 

[Bluerover]

Mcgeady is going to score isn't he.

...an absolute screamer!!

 

[ExpatinBangkok]

We should be playing our young lads /reserves for this cup. Give lookman DCL etc some full games. Bottom priority competition for me.

 

[GwladysBlue]

This cup will be scrapped within the next 10 years, I reckon.

Would be good to win it, so we can say we have won every domestic honour.

 

[COYBL25]

He'll most likely be crocked...

No way, James will playing even if it's on one leg.

It's just how he is

 

[Shibbywiggles]

Can't wait for the Mardi Gras when Oviedo, McGeady or Vaughan score against us.

Tbf it was Naismith that knocked us out of this last season wasn't it!

I like the idea of having Scottish teams in this.... Prem teams enter in 3rd round, European qualifiers enter in 4th round - less games and give it some interest with Celtic/Rangers involved.

 

[PaddyG]

I obviously want us to win every game and take cup competitions seriously, but as long as we progress in Europe tonight, I just can't see this being a high priority for Koeman. Expect your JonJoe Kenny's and your Liam Walsh's to be sniffing around this one.

I'd be made up to be proven wrong and we put a full strength team out for it though.

My pet hate this!

Agree with everything you said though, got to be giving this competition a go to get the monkey off our back.

Keep them two scum clubs and their religious segregation out of England.

Yeah exactly, and everyone clapped.

 

[ToffeeTim]

Home tie against a lower league side. Can't ask for much more.

 

[PITA]

I think you're being a tad kind there mate; what you meant to say was : "Now so many of your posts make a little more sense"

What can I say? I'm a nice person.

 

[a bell maul]

Well, you've certainly extended the arm of forgiveness toward some of the nonsense I post, so I thank you for that.
