[Archived] Carling Cup Advertisements

[rovers1995]

They have just been advertising the opening sequence of the Carling Cup outside of the Jack Walker Statue at Ewood, and my little sister was involved. The programme is due to be aired mid to the end of August. Any idea why they are filming it at Ewood?

Won it in 2003?

I very much doubt that's the reason.

Won it in 2003?

We're competing in it?

We're the best club in the world?

Or all of the above...

Wasn't it 2002

Wasn't it 2002

It was. In 2002-03 we were beaten 4-2 on aggregate in the semi finals to Manchester United. Liverpool won it that year beating United 2-0 in the final.
