The OFFICIAL Albion are playing LIVERPOOL (A) in the Fifth Round Thread

[wellquickwoody]

Gutted! Been to Anfield three times with the Albion. It is now difficult to justify a 150 day to probably lose to a team that I have been to many times. If it had been Everton there would be no stopping me, never been there.

Based on the fact that Newcastle are above Liverpool in the premiership, should be a doddle!!!!!!!!!

That's cool. I will look in a few minutes. I was relying on wikipedia's entry being accurate
Cup-tied - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Even the wiki page you just quoted does not say that - you've misread the bit where in an example it says someone who plays in the league cup is not cup tied in the FA cup! It does not say anywhere on wiki that the cup tied rule does not apply to the league cup!

9-1 liverpool

That would make us the first team to concede 9 at Liverpool since... do remind me...

Carling Cup Rules are quite easy to google - I suggest you check before making such an incorrect statement!

I shall repeat my earlier post....

Check section 6.1 of the PLAYERS section in the competition rules, on the OFFICIAL FOOTBALL LEAGUE website..

It quite clearly states 'No player will play for more than ONE CLUB in the cup competition in ANY ONE SEASON'

I really wouldn't take Wikipedia as gospel pal.

Now can we put this one to bed please?

Liverpool have got an exciting February.

Spurs, Man Utd, a trip to Wembley and the mighty Brighton & Hove Albion.

 

[perseus]

Sunday not Friday ?

 

[DumLum]

It is DESTINY for us to win the cup now!

Yep, Norwich in the quarters it is then.

 

[Triggaaar]

Be good to watch you getting smashed

You're going to go to Liverpool and watch us get drunk? You're weird.

 

[CHAPPERS]

Cheap train tickets from Euston to Liverpool?

Though of course if you do want those cheap tickets you probably shouldn't publicise that deal.....

 

[seagullondon]

Vicente will get himself fit now

 

[Mutts Nuts]

This, totally this.

There will be tears. Allocation of about 7,000.

Yep just under 6,790

 

[severnside gull]

great tie whether you watch it at Anfield or on the tv and another £750K or so in the club coffers. This season will be the biggest financially in the club's history by a long way

You're right. I stand corrected. Fair play.

Shows the perils of relying on Wikipedia!

Good chance of it being on tv hopefully. Behind Stevenage vs Spurs, Crawley vs Stoke and possibly Everton vs Sheff Wed though...

 

[BHAFC_Pandapops]

can't wait to find out if i can go or not

 

[Green Cross Code Man]

I am absolutely just ecstatic about this. I am originally from Liverpool but bleed Blue and White and have supported brighton from the age of seven. Im from just around Anfield and dont go up there much at all but to be abel to go to me dear old nan's, who is 92 and trot along through the red bricked houses that shelter Anfield and cheer on the seagulls is just beyond amazing. I have tears in my eyes. I am a very proud man right now. What a draw. (sorry if my spelling is shite but very emotional)

Who said the FA cup was dead?

Although from Sussex,i lived 14 years in Liverpool. One of the many houses i lived in was in Edith Road just about a hundred yards away from the Kop. Really cool pace to live although Anfield can be a little 'interesting'as a place to live lol!

Not behind boring Stoke surely?
