The FA Cup 2015/16

[Marty]

First round this weekend and already a giant-killing (in relative terms).

Class of 92's Salford City beat Notts County 2-0. 59 league places between them.

Other first round ties to look out for are Coventry v Northampton (remember Coventry had to ground-share there when they were booted out of the Ricoh), Didcot v Exeter and Millwall v AFC Fylde. Plus I'll be cheering on Wycombe at Halifax. Rounds off with FC United v Chesterfield on Monday which could be a good game.

Anyone else interested?

Chesham v Brizzle Rovers. I grew up near Chesham and hope to see them do well. I doubt many people in the town are interested as most will either be in the mosque or the local crack den.

Great to see but its a shame that Salford are only getting this attention because of their owners. Yes, their performances have also been fantastic but it would be nice to see more non-league clubs getting such exposure.

Sounds like a lovely place.

Stevenage v Gillingham. Stevenage managed by Teddy, & the Gills by Justin Edinburgh.

Come on you Gills...

Sounds like a lovely place.

About ten miles from Wycombe. Still not as bad as there.

Salford vs Notts County was actually a very enjoyable match

Whitehawk with the last minute equalizer against the Daggers, proper pleased for them, but made me laugh so hard at what's become of football - the reporter for the BBC goes after the manager of Whitehawk as the final whistle goes, the guy is absolutely made up at getting on the BBC live, and in seconds two lackies have come in holding a large glass board covered with sponsors logos and just plonked it down behind him and stood there looking gormless.

For shame, that looked so amateur it's unreal. Took a bit of shine off of a brilliant little interview, but the manager is now up in the stands, dancing with fans - love the FA Cup, proper fun.

Very inexperienced Liverpool team. Kevin Stewart was in our youth team until a couple of years ago, and it was a case of them taking one of our cast-offs rather than having him poached, so will be interesting to see how he goes.

Hopefully Orange **** has a similar performance to his shambles at Watford.

You can get Exeter to win at 17/4 which looks incredibly good value given that Liverpool line-up

They were 9/1 this morning, was going to put some money on it but forgot...
So what's klopps excuse for putting this team out then, prem league title, league cup and EL treble?
Hope they get torn a new one.

 

[Grapo2001]

Not sure why I'm so pissed off with Klopp and his arrogance and disrespect for the FA Cup here hope pool get beat.

 

[nightgoat]

Is Sinclair the one they poached off West Brom?

The first team need a rest (have played a lot of games lately in a short time) and everyone else is injured. I've got no problem with this team selection but I still hope they get beat.

What's all this bullshit about this being 'the only team Liverpool could put out'? No it fucking isn't!
