Jimmy Salt 2 Posted 07/12/2017 at 18:02:27 Ha first thing that came to my mind as well, Jamie.This is one game I will gladly watch from the armchair. Barry McNally 3 Posted 07/12/2017 at 18:47:52 A bit unfair on all the Scandinavian and London reds! Jamie Evans 4 Posted 07/12/2017 at 20:03:52 I stopped going to Anfield about 7 or 8 seasons ago, after leaving the Anny Road to find the back of my coat covered in spit from our friendly neighbours in the upper stand. I fancy this one though, Jimmy @ 2. Then again, let's get this Sunday out the way first eh. Mike Jones 5 Posted 07/12/2017 at 20:48:48 Oh dear. Town should be fun that night then... Peter Lee 6 Posted 07/12/2017 at 21:50:37 Played them once before on a Friday evening. Loads well pissed, evil atmosphere. Why Merseyside police don't veto this is beyond me. Should be played early game Saturday or Sunday. Jason Wilkinson 7 Posted 07/12/2017 at 21:57:08 The blue city is all ours. The city's all ours. You'll miss the last flight to Oslo. The city's all ours. Absolutely brilliant. Can't wait to knock 'em out the cup. Bring on the Tic-tacs. Brian Williams 8 Posted 07/12/2017 at 22:06:21 Jason (#7).Or after Klopp slags our tactics rotten and claims we didn't go there to play after we beat them 1-0 with a late late goal:"It's never your fault.""It's never your fauuuuult.""You lost the derby, but it wasn't your fault." Paul Kelly 9 Posted 08/12/2017 at 02:43:41 Any spares? Any spares? Tony Abrahams 10 Posted 08/12/2017 at 07:44:03 Going down? Are we fuck! We'll stay up and win the Cup!
