It is actually my favourite competition (I mean, in that I get excited about it.) I have no idea why: Night games? Winning it three times? Even -- going back to my younger days in the States -- John Harkes's League Cup heroics when he was the only American in English football. But I love the League Cup.

Would love us to win it again.

 

Brings back memories of the O'Neill years, the replay at Hillsborough is still a very special night for me.

 

It was also the last ever replayed final in League Cup history.

I remember trying to climb onto my chair to see our goal and then clinging to my dad's jacket for dear life as my seat flipped back and disappeared from under my feet as everyone was going nuts when the goal went in

One of only two grounds left to complete the 92, must get to this one.

Wow, well done! I’m around 50-55/92 in I think and thought I was doing very well!

I know that area well. The cinema in Heaton Moor is lovely. Funnily enough, that's where I met Huth - of all places! 

 

I lived in a flat near the train station and the very stabby McDonald's. Was glad to move out of there, by the end. Up in Glossop now. 

You gone posh

Want this for Vardy to complete the set!

Would have loved us to do it with kasper and vardy. Ah well. Let's hope with no European football we see the cups as a way to get back in and add more silverware.

I was always posh, just slummed it in Stockport a bit. Originally from Anstey.

Confirmed Tuesday.

[RonnieTodger]

Have sky made their picks?

Definitely winnable with the top 7 in Europe, we should be the best of the rest. Vardy and big Dan will have the entire set.

Yes, Tuesday Bolton vs Villa, Wednesday Tranmere vs Newcastle.

[Ian Nacho]

Nice to get a new ground off the list.

I hope it is playing somewhere, if you know what I mean.

Cups definitely have importance this year, and I think Rodgers will take them pretty serious.

Disappointed with this. Was hoping to add a new ground to my current 49, but Edgeley Park is the ground I've been to most after our own. I was at our League One encounter there, but also went to nearly all their Friday night home games between 1971 and 1974. That season IIRC it cost me 33p for a return rail journey, match entrance and a programme!

 

I know. I am getting on.

A ride on a steam train is always nice
