On Twitter now that if we win it he is going to let Lallana put his feet up on it.

Funny how every fucker is coming out saying we're disrespecting the cup yet virtually every tie (ironically apart from the ones we're in ) are played in half empty stadiums .

Did they want to cry really badly?

I’ve heard that JW has said that if we win it  then next season we’re going to keep it in the dressing room so the players can take a half-time piss in it.

[torahboy]

Win it, shit in it and send it to Accrington's owner.

Ridiculous that man.

 

I did like how Linda suggested filling it with jelly beans and then having a contest to guess how many were in there.

Cut the handles off it and make it into a tea urn. 

[Bjornebye]

Lend it to Everton so they can tell tourists to Goodison that they won it last year. 

 

Oh.... oh.

We’re they also calling Brentford disrespectful? (They played 6 kids of 20 or younger and rested their three top scorers) Or any of the other PL or Championship teams who rested players en masse.... Watford made, I think 11 changes for their match v Tranmere. These people are so full of shit.

Correct. And if we allowed admission to the replay to all fans for a tenner, the minimum the FA will allow, these twats would say we were robbing shrewsbury of a decent payout.

 

As for disrespecting the cup, have these cunts not realised the draw is actually being made on The One Show?! Fucking laughable the number of people lining up to take potshots of us 'disrespecting' the cup while ignoring what the FA is doing.

9 changes for West Brom. Although Moyes is such a fuck up he couldn’t beat them.

Its absolutely ridiculous the luck they get with draws. They must have been the first club in the history of the competition to win it without playing someone in the top half of the Premier league last season.

 

Chelsea always seem to be drawn at home the last few years in the early rounds.

West Ham bringing Moyes back shows how little West Ham care about the FA Cup and the Premier League. 

[Crazy Dave]

Chelsea away is a cunt of a draw. They played their first team at Hull in the 4th round. Can't win either way now. Change course and play a slightly stronger team against Shrewsbury just to get through and face probable elimination by Chelsea's first team anyway?  

[Anubis]

The mass Fume - carefully orchestra by the BBC and certain hostile media outlets - is quite glorious. All these calls for us to be fined, banned from the contest (denying Shrewsbury an Anfield payday??!!), or suffer points deductions in an entirely different competition - none of which will happen - is highly amusing.

 

I genuinely think that by the end of this season we will have ruined some

people.

[Harry Squatter]

Why was there no fume for Watford playing a reserve side against Tranmere denying their fans a game against the famous Manchester United?

 

Why aren't Alan Brazil and all the other twats on Talksport foaming at the mouth when Championship teams do it even against Premier league opposition?

 

At least Anfield will be full next week compared to all the empty seats you see on the highlights of the round on MOTD.

[Vincent Vega]

I think Klopp is happy for us to go out. If we win next week and then beat Chelsea it means we have a quarter-final on the weekend of 21st/22nd March meaning our league match against Palace will need to be rearranged. Win that one and we then have a semi-final on the weekend of April 18th/19th meaning the league match against Brighton will need to be rearranged. None of this will be a helpful to a team whose objectives are winning the league and Champions League, both of which are a realistic prospect.

[johnsusername]

Fucking Chelsea fuck that shit. 

 

The fix is in.

[s(k)aturation]

 

I think Klopp is happy to go out too.

 

Funnily enough, if our blokes has done the business yesterday, I think the prospect of a crack at Chelsea with our "mixed" XI would have been quite exciting.

 

Anyhow, we'll see.

If that all managed to happen how long before the bitters start taking credit for fucking our season up...

Did Watford make such a public declaration of how unimportant it is to them?  Did their manager say he wouldn't bother turning up? 

 

I'll be very surprised if Anfield is anywhere near full if it's the U23's managed by the U23's manager.

I really, really dont think he is wanting us to go out. But, I think he knows if he started to try and win the EFL Cup and then the FA Cup, we wouldnt be in this position in the league. For want of a better description, he's playing the percentages to win the league.

 

I really cannot get my head around the thought we should go all out and dilute our attempt to win the league or retain the CL in favour of trying to also win the FA Cup.

So watford were less open and honest about it? OK!
