League Cup Quarter-Final - Liverpool at home

[Pete3206]

Meh. Just tell me when the date is and I'll turn up. What a load of fuss about nothing.

[Marlon From Bearwood]

Do all the people suggesting that we just insist on the original date and refuse to switch, genuinely think that’s something we could do? Really?

Have they missed the dozens of games that get switched from their original date every season?

[darren woolley]

I'm glad we are at home hopefully Liverpool will put out an under strength team and we can book our place in the Semi Finals.

[London Villan]

We should give them a selection of dates we are happy with. Let’s hope we aren’t been dictated to.

[Hookeysmith]

But you know that is exactly what will happen

We will not even be consulted

[OCD]

They've been playing a few kids anyway. Just have the senior team play the FIFA game and send a send separate group to play the cup game.

[Holte132]

We already have seven games to play in December so I think it might suit us better to have the game played in January - or just give us a bye to the semis!

If the dates we want aren't available because Liverpool are abroad, that's hardly their fault, is it? I don't really understand why people seem to have their backs up about this. We have had matches rearranged due to opponents' cup requirements for years. Not sure why everyone seems to have gone full Fight Them On The Beaches about it this time. Would playing a match a few days before a Third Round cup match in which we will likely rest loads of players be that much of a hardship?

Obviously, I'd prefer a bye or to play Liverpool's kids in December, but they haven't actually done anything wrong on this occasion.

[Risso]

Exactly.  It's no different to having a league game rearranged because you've got through to a later round of the cup.

It really does grieve me to say it, but I agree with the feisty young lad on this occasion.

What has the world come to ? H&V posters seeing things from a Liverpool FC perspective ….. whatever next? My Claret membership cards coming in the post …….. oh wait a minute 

Seriously though I think the authorities should consider moving the fixture to Anfield so as the Liverpool players for the tie don't have to leave school early to get to Birmingham

[markeeeebeeee2005]

Who cares when we play it really? I’m really missing the quick turnover of games in the championship.

[TonyD]

They knew there would be a clash.  So make them play the kids.  They had no problem with playing the kids the other night.

James Milner's an old "kid".

[LeeB]

I think we should be helpful in this situation because we may need the favour back in two years time when we're playing in it.
