[League Cup Final] Newcastle United Vs. Liverpool - 16/03/25 @ 16:30 (Live on ITV & Sky)

[Miggys First Goal]

Like someone on Football Focus just said, the Man Utd game felt like a party, like a novelty. 
 

This one feels like business. 
 

Howay the lads!

Not sure that makes any difference on result mate

 

We just didn’t show up on the day

What's the allowed gap between magpies for 2 to be lucky? I went for a walk and saw one magpie, then slipped over, then saw another. Did my slip count as the bad luck from the first and I'm back to 1 magpie, or did I see 2 and I'm just clumsy?

Literally worst case scenario is we lose to Liverpool again and who really gives a fuck about that

Aye, you got your bad luck out of the way.

Also salute the fuck out of them, that nulls the bad luck, haha.

Omens are good. I went to an Iranian restaurant in London and had something called Zeytoon Parvardeh and it was one of the nicest things I’ve ever had.

 

ZeyTOON. 

Double omen

 

Parvadeh is pronounced Pardew

[Django]

Apologies if I’ve missed the discussion but I presume Sky will be the preference for those who have it (over ITV)?

[Miggys First Goal]

I’d imagine Sky would be a Liverpool wankathon until five minutes before KO when they’ll remember there are two teams in the final. 

[jackyboy]

Last time we played Liverpool at wembley I was there with my brother. Hope this time ends better

We get a weekly update at work. This week they decided to include the thoughts of a Newcastle fan and a Liverpool fan. Compare and contrast the humility of one fan and the absolute self-entitlement of the other.

Plus there's Jamie on Comms.  🤮🤢

[alexf]

What an awful choice. The problem with sky is you'll have a commentary team of that Liverpool and Salah sycophant Peter Drury and ofcourse unbiased Jamie Carragher on co-comms. Itv are usually the pits for commentators too but atleast might be able to tolerate whoever they have.

Work up early this morning and I jumped out of bed
I didn't have to wear my work clothes 
I put on this shirt instead
It's a black and white jersey, it's a thing I couldn't hide
'Cos it's almost a religion and I wear it with some pride

Genuinely read that and was thinking, as I got to the 3rd line, this reminds me of a song somehow 😂😂😂😂

I bought the single as well ⚫ ⚪ 🪖

Made the decision weeks ago to choose ITV over Sky for this reason alone.

 

Pisses me off everytime I hear Carra commentating on a Liverpool game or Neville on a Man Utd game.

This is why I always go for the international feed. No shit sky pundits.

[AyeDubbleYoo]

Yeah, at home I always look for a foreign channel now. Hope the pubs just keep the sound off until kick off. 

[ramirez]

I don't think Neville is too bad, he was certainly fair when we went to OT after xmas and won.  I'm sure sky had Niall Quinn on for the derby once.

I'm trying not to hope. However, it's my daughters first ballet show at 16:00 until 18:00, so I'll be stuck there watching that.  If we're going to win the first major trophy in my lifetime then sods law dictates I'm destined to miss it.

 

You definitely entered the wrong ticket ballet there

[andycap]

Surely sky have getting complaints with spit the dog doing Liverpool games of other fans. It's so biased it's unwatchable. I'd love it if every bugger boycotted sky and watched itv for the final. 😂 

[mattypnufc]

Pretty chilled carriage on our train down. Others not so much. 😂
