Saints V Liverpool League Cup Semifinal First leg

I think he did Klopp a treat last night tactically.

They will have been planning all week for us to chuck everything at them in the first twenty mins - they just had to weather the storm, take control, and then pick us off.

Instead we sat back and picked them off - nice one.

Not bad for a bunch of inbred cunts led by a dead cunt walking - whatever that is.

You as well. I had no intention of going originally, but got back home at midnight and bought one straight away. Oh well another couple of days off work.

Only just sobering up after drinking throughout yesterday and catching up with BT, Goaty and SO5. Last beer was at 1am. My review of the evening: it was very good.

Welcome to my world.

This 2nd leg is going to be an expensive day out but fuck it, I have cup fever, fuelled by the smell of a cup final :lou_lol:

I challenge anyone to oppose this flawless logic:

3rd Round - Won 2-0

4th Round - Won 1-0

Quarter Final - Won 2-0

Semi Final 1st Leg - Won 1-0

Semi Final 2nd Leg - Following the sequence we will win 2-0

Final - Again following the sequence we will beat Hull 1-0, becoming the first team to win this trophy without conceding a goal* on our path to glory.

Beer has helped me come to this foregone conclusion, so don’t thank me, thank beer.

*I may have made this bit up. Please can someone check for me.

Hull ?

are they not -2 at the half way of their game with Man Utd?

In addition to superhuman logical powers, beer has also granted me ridiculous amounts of optimism :lou_smiley:

surely beating United 1-0 in the final would be more apt … it’s written in the stars (The Twilight Zone)

Think the tater said Spurs got to a final without conceding.

Then lost.

HTH

Surely IF we did go on and win the final, we would be the first team also, to win the trophy beating top flight teams all the way?

That would be pretty impressive, not conceeding and beating Palace, Sunderland, Arsenal, Liverpool and Man U along the way!

It would be an amazing acheivement and starting to feel entirely possible. Just need to keep focused for another 135 mins.

180 I hope!!! Unless we fall apart in the 2nd half of the final!!???

Dreamt last night that we won the second leg 3-0. Or was it 4-0?

Whatever. Lump your money on there being a football match on 25th January - you heard it here first.

Too many cheese suppers.

More likely to be cheese flavoured beer, to be honest.

Doh, yep 180 mins of course … I need to focus more today.

… or just write it off and hit the pub at lunch time
