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

[Mattoon]

It's just 90 minutes, a one off, anything can happen, game of football. To them it's just another Mickey Mouse cup to throw in the back of the cabinet, to us its an historic event that changes everything. Their supporters forget about it on Monday, we will take it to our graves. 

 

Anything can happen tomorrow, ita just 90 minutes, only thing I know for sure, Isak is ending our Wembley goal drought!

[McDog]

Freddie in Black and White, it is preordained.

I think I'm at the stage of grief where I'm actually excited again - once you come to terms with the absolute agony that's almost certainly coming upon kick-off, there's a freedom about enjoying the day, enjoying the singing, the drinking, the emotions and general outpouring of love.

 

These players are on the verge of immortality, if they can somehow - incredibly - churn out that one epic performance.

 

Regardless, let's soak it all in.

I've not even considered the possibility we might win it

 

That's how I felt when Hearts played Rangers in the 1998 Scottish Cup final.

 

No silverware since the early '60's, so many kicks in the teeth, so decided to not get too hung up on the outcome but just enjoy the day.

 

Then, we got a penalty after 30 seconds, took the lead and all that went oot the window. 😃

 

I hope your dreams come true, lads.

 

We won 2-1, btw.

If they are like a wounded rabid dog after Tuesday, fine, let's go out like Atticus Finch and shoot them cold between the eyes.

I’m up in court next week for headbutting an old lady in the queue at Asda. 

 

You headbutt an old woman in the queue in Asda and you're labelled a prat... and that's the game.

Last time going to bed as a fan that hasn’t won the Milk/Coca Cola/Worthington/Carling/Capital One/Carabao Cup.

 

Life will feel fundamentally different 

[Ketsbaia]

Wigan, Wimbledon, Oxford, Luton, Portsmouth, Swindon, Norwich, Ipswich, Coventry, Swansea, Middlesbrough, Sunderland, Sheff Wed, Stoke, Leicester, Southampton, Wolves and Birmingham.

 

All have won major trophies since we last did. It's insane.

As have Partick Thistle, Dundee, Motherwell, Raith Rovers and, worst of all, Hibernian up here. 😊 

 

All the best for tomorrow.

Party is just getting started. On the M11 with the National Express drinking Copella. Wild times.

[Kanj]

Wide awake. No amount of booze has been able to impact my brain last 48 hours. I’m wired man. This feels different. We’re going to have a team of legends who will become immortal to us all. 

[Holloway]

I'm off to bed with a clear vision of Bruno hoisting the cup, I can't wait for tomorrow

I'm on shift unable to sleep. I'm hoping it's not a problem after 06:00  

[Paullow]

I thought Eddie and Jason would have had better things to do than that the day before a final.

[Wolfcastle]

Its in the hands of the fans at the match to perform regardless of what happens, so hope they do, we at least came away with that from the 90s finals. Its just better all round that they do.

[toontownman]

Wishing all the best to everyone for tomorrow. Win or lose cup finals are a rarity. We got to take stock and soak it in. Players will be up for it, hopefully not red card up for it or too Gung ho we get obliterated on the break!!

 

Gets some sleep for those that can!
