redcityman Posted August 27, 2013 Report Share Posted August 27, 2013 When did we last reach the 3rd round of the league cup? Was it the season we faced Forest in the semis? Radio Bristol said ten years ago, but for the life of me I can't remember who we beat to get there. Update, we lost 3-0 to Southampton in 2003. The forest semi was 25 years ago.

North London Red Posted August 27, 2013 Report Share Posted August 27, 2013 2003-0s: without checking the archives, isn't that the season we beat Swansea in round 1 (after extra time if memory serves) before beating Watford in round 2, then losing to Southampton (premier league, and managed by Gordon Strachan) in round 3?

Harry Posted August 27, 2013 Report Share Posted August 27, 2013 Radio Bristol said ten years ago, but for the life of me I can't remember who we beat to get there. Update, we lost 3-0 to Southampton in 2003. The forest semi was 25 years ago. Yep, 2003 we beat Swansea at home 4-1 after extra time (1-1 at FT). 2nd round we then beat Watford 1-0, before we then went down 3-0 to Southampton. Interestingly, the last time we beat Palace in this competition was 1988 when we beat them 4-1 in the 3rd round. That was the year we got to the semi's.

Wanderingred Posted August 28, 2013 Report Share Posted August 28, 2013 In any cup competition - Liverpool in 1994. In the league cup.... Errm I think it may have been Blackpool in 1970. Rings a bell. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

22A Posted August 28, 2013 Report Share Posted August 28, 2013 This season is satrting to remind me of 69-70. City struggled against relegation until April, yet made it to the semi finals of the LC. For those who remember; why oh why did Garland not lob Pat Jennings when he had the chance? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
