I reckon most clubs would take fourth place over winning the FA cup.

Yeah. Given the choice of LFC winning the cup or 4th place I'd have to choose 4th place because of the difference it could make to their future. Although another Wembley victory over everton would be tempting. :biggrin:

Which would you take VB?

Everton beat Liverpool in FA cup final but come fifth in the league. Liverpool come fourth.

Everton lose to Liverpool in the FA cup final but come fourth in the league. Liverpool come fifth.

Everton win the cup final, couldn't give a monkeys against who. Liverpool and Everton finish in fifth and sixth, in either order, Brenda gets the sack, Liverpool and United swap managers.

Honestly? I'd rather be at Wembley and see them lift the cup.

17 or 41 ?

If he's 17 then God help him when he is 41. He'll look older than Gandalf.

Don't quite know what's appropriate to say. Words are pointless sometimes.

You're not wrong there, after the relief of beating Swansea after playing pretty poorly for 70 minutes got in the car to hear that we might be awarded with another visit to Redshite Towers.

Phew!
