Who could forget Mardon's goal at Forest, or being 1-0 up at half-time at the Ethiad, all wonderful memories. For a club that gets one succesful season on average every 10 years give me the League cup any day. This Like you saw all six legs of those three semis Untio we storm into serious promotion material or smash our way through rounds of the FA Cup on any form of basis , I’ll keep the League Cup as our best hope of some real fun Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oh Louie louie Posted August 10, 2022 Report Share Posted August 10, 2022 My alltime fave away days been in this cup. Sadly i think it will be scrapped sooner or later. Sooner i think. Last few years though, klopp and pepe have respected it tbf. Fergie ignored it for years, then when they were 33,1 in the betting, he started playing!

Guess I’m just a couple of years older than you and those League Cup Semi-finals are definitely some of the main highlights of 56 years watching City. Not giving up on a fourth, hopefully with a Wembley final! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I appreciate that it is great for L1 and L2 sides, but i am really not concerned if it got abolished, which is a selfish view, i know? Totally agree. Too many games as it is. I am looking forward to Wigan on Saturday but couldn't give a hoot about tonight's result. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Oh Louie louie Posted August 10, 2022 Report Share Posted August 10, 2022 Id rather have this cup than the fa cup, due to our history. I wouldnt want too see any cup competition gone. How things are going, its bottom of the pile. Probaly be the first to feel the pinch, the way things going. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Low attendances and flood lights on; it must cost the home team to stage matches in the early rounds. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
