Lovely goal by Ade in the

Yes it was a wonderful goal old fellow, and as for the couldn't careless cup, I think that about says it all. Toodle pip, off to watch the second half of us in Champs League.

Atila. Do you have to copy the whole fecking thread to make your point? Why not just quote the relevant bit. Otherwise the thread just reads like the same points repeated over and over again.

Because it gets up the noses of people like your good self.

[Mick Mac]

yes, it does.

PMSL ! Atila- want to watch the Arsenal game in the company of 40 MCFC lads?

[Atila Reincarnate]

Sorry mate, the sight of 40 blokes crying would be too much to put up with.

Yes, come back soon Anna, we miss you!

Don't worry you've always got the Europa Cup...;-)

[matthew123]

Aye the Thursday Cup, really looking forward to that one...

[red devil]

...and lots of Sunday games, not good for the long distance travelling fans amongst us...

[lard]

Have I missed anything?

[matthew123]

It certainly feels like Groundhog Day at Anfield

[red devil]

Well 'pool have to be one of the strongest teams left in the Europa Cup, so if they won it would all be forgotten?

[matthew123]

I think the League Cup is held in higher esteem than the Europa League - will just be a run out for those needing playing time, or at least that is how I hope it works out!

[Jah Lush]

That's doesn't make sense Matthew, because if you win the League Cup you then qualify for the Europa League. So you might just as well try and win the damn thing.

[mockney piers]

That logic doesn't necessarily hold true JL.

If you win the champions league you qualify for the ... Err ... World club championship. Or the huh? As everyone else calls it.

That said I agree that rubbish as it is it is still slightly above the milk cup, or whatever it's called.

Bring back the cup winners cup and make it for cup winners only I say.

[matthew123]

These days I'm not really interested in either competition

[mockney piers]

And for gods sake make sure it doesn't have a bloody group stage.

Yaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaawn

[Atila Reincarnate]

To make matters really interesting make the Champions League exactly what it says on the tin, for champions only. Ain't gonna happen beacuse of UEFA and the clubs greed. It'd be alot more interesting though, perhaps an incentive to finish top rather than settle for runner up or 3rd and 4th place.

[Jah Lush]

I agree bring back the Cup Winners' Cup. The Europa League is crap. Far too many games.

[mockney piers]

Totally with you on that one atila. I might even bother to watch the odd game if it was actually exciting.

[Atila Reincarnate]

Champions League, league stages are very dull I have to agree.

[Jah Lush]

Bloody hell we're all agreeing on something here. Keef has mentioned before about the scraping of the league stages. They're pointless and only exist to bring in more revenue. I'd actually go a stage further and return the European Champions League to a Cup competition.

[kpc]

What - exactly - was wrong with the Fairs Cup?

[Jah Lush]

Sent to me by a Liverpool fan but obviously created by a Man Utd fan.

Liverpool's End Of Season Party

[mockney piers]

Or the watney cup?
