i think we need to move on from this topic it's just going to cause arguements.

just think back to King Eric we let him get away with murder and defended everything he did just like the arsenal fans are doing with their players.. a true supportter wouldn't do any less.

just like the Pires pen was ok to them last season the rooney one isn't until we get stop being true fans and sit back and look at these things we will just go round in circles

Well, one proud auntie here. While I was at my sisters tonight they had a phone call from Man United

Would my nephew like to go training with the Academy

I know it's not like he's playing for them but I'm really chuffed cos he's only 7.

Sorry, should have added that he already trains with the Man City boys but we are slightly biased towards the Red side of the city

Am I the only one who feels the League Cup has had it's day now.

None of the top sides and even teams like Man City field reserves. It just adds extra games and has no real value anymore.

if the sponsors and the FA didn't make any money out of it i think it would have gone long ago.

Nugget · 27-10-2004, 10:19

Speak for yourself - Villa fielded the best side they could last night, and Burnley still stuffed us!

Why not make the league cup the UK cup, allow teams from Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland enter.

Russ · 27-10-2004, 10:34

One step closer to a Great Britain national team....!

Because, with the exception of Rangers and Celtic (and possibly Hibs, Hearts and Aberdeen), none of the other teams would progress - I can't really see Total Network Solutions beating many teams from the English league (or Scottish for that matter).

Also, IMO, it would be difficult to get all 4 FAs to agree to a format - if we had a cup competition with 92 English league clubs, 40-odd Scottish clubs, 10(ish) Welsh clubs and however many Irish clubs, the competition would go on forever.
