Of course you did. After all, the exact number can be hard to work out without a calculator at hand.

Thanks for your understanding in this.

The Carling Cup is important because Neil *needs* that run down the street if we win.

LOL.

We havent been Wembley since 96, its time for a final again.

It's like trying to pull a fat bird at ten to two.

You wouldn't be that arsed if she knocked you back, but if you've tried & she knocks you back it's just embarrassing.

And I'd know all about that

Winning the Carling cup = a way into Europe

 

[Shadey]

It could be the Carling Tinfoil Dogturd, but what really matters is this ^.

By far the most important thing.

I had a feeling you'd respond to that post!

Does winning it get us into the UEFA Cup? I thought they'd changed that...

Ah bollocks we don't want to be playing in that next year.

Can't we just win the cup and tell them to let someone else take our place in the UEFA

I actually agree, the money isn't worth the shit that comes with it. The financial side just doesn't add up to more than the thousand games, real lack of decent ties & travelling. Oh yeah, & it's on fucking channel 5.

 

[HC]

It's better than nothing. Hopefully we'll finish 4th making it redundant anyway

 

[Moseley]

Well............ it's not the Champions League but surely (for the club) it's better than no Europe?

Play the kids, whatever, at least you're better than you were last year?

As a gesture of solidarity should we win the Carling Cup we should offer Everton our place in Europe which of course they would snap up.

And then laugh at them

 

[doctor_mac]

When I was a kid I loved seeing us winning the 'Milk cup'/ League cup. I didn't rate it and measure it against other trophies. I'd say millions of skitters will be excited to see us in a final if we make it to the final and dancing about if we win it. And I'll be dancing about too.

 

[Sheik Yerbouti]

A cup's a cup. That's our purpose. To win them.

 

[Gary25]

Would love to see us win the Carling Cup. Been too long without a trophy to turn our nose up at it.

Lets do this thing.

Exactly.

 

[SaintGeorge67]

Plus, Stockport County and Bury have been to the new Wembley more times than us.

 

[StevieM]

For purely selfish reasons I don't want us to be in the Europa League.

We HAVE to get 4th.

How fucking great would it be to win some trophies and finish 4th, with Arsenal 5th and Chelsea 6th.

 

[Peatcheo]

We havent won ANYTHING in six years, id be made up with the Carling Cup, silverware is silverware.

 

[LarryHagman]

Didn't we have this discussion before the carling cup started and 99% of people said it was worthless shite?

 

[doctor_mac]

Proof that you can, in fact, polish a turd.

Probably

I'd like to think that I said I wanted to won it because it's a trophy

But I can't remember
