FourLaneBlue Posted January 25, 2006 Share Posted January 25, 2006 (edited) No, it's run by The Football league. No doubt they'd have been hoping for a Man U-Arsenal final though... Edited January 25, 2006 by FourLaneBlue Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ihateburnley Posted January 25, 2006 Share Posted January 25, 2006 Last time we reached the final against Spurs they actually stated that the game was not interesting enough and if two bigger clubs such as Liverpool, Man U were playing they would air it. Buttheads or what? First things first though, we have tonight to get through. It will be even more lopsided refereeing tonightcos the FA simply MUST have at least one big market team in the final. You'll see. 377833[/snapback] If I remember rightly USA, our final against Spurs got the record viewing figures for a televised League Cup Final. Having said that, anyone would have tuned in to see our 'Brazilesque' team what with the likes of Stig Inge Bjornebye and Martin Taylor strutting their stuff!

Wild Irish Rover Posted January 25, 2006 Share Posted January 25, 2006 Nope, its a Football League competition. Remember guys, no ole's tonight please. 377852[/snapback] Unless of course it is the Rovers showing the Mancs just what a bunch of R s'ole's they are.. This is a real test of Hughesey's football acumen, the team's footballing credentials and bottle... why did Tim Flowers jump into my mind just then...? Anyway.... COME ON YOU MIGHTY BLUES! Let's have OUR DREAM FINAL! (in Feb) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You'll see. 377833[/snapback] Did they not watch the snorefest that was last year's FA Cup final then? "Big" teams in a final do not always equal a good game. Although last year's League Cup Final between Liverpool & Chelsea wasn't too bad. Here's hoping we upset the media and get to the final Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
