If their squad is so small and crap that they can't rotate then tough. Maybe they'll not jizz £50m against the wall for one mentally fragile, alice-band wearing numpty next time.

Qualifying for the Champion's League regularly has allowed them to build a bigger and better squad.

This has been compounded by a Russian Billionaire allowing them to offer Fantasy Football wages and pay Fantasy Football transfer fees, attracting a larger number of high calibre players.

They must simply do as anyone else does. Rotate your squad or play the best XI available.

Tough luck, hard cheese and fuck Chelsea.

I bet they get the date changed, if they can shaft the judicial system by delaying the Terry case then bribing the FA will be a piece of piss.

There is no way that the FA will agree to have this on a Friday night.

Firstly it makes a mockery of the FA Cup, something that won't happen.

Secondly it's at Wembley - it's always on a weekend!

Didn't they kick up a stink a few years back when we played Sevilla in the UEFA on a Thursday night and had to play the Chavs early on the Saturday, either they didn't wanna change it, or made it very difficult for us to change the game.

Either way, F**k Chelsea

Not really, we could have changed that but Levy wanted the Sky money

It was 2007 and we played Braga in Portugal on a Thurs evening at 9pm before playing Chelsea at midday on the Saturday

Let's try and get it moved to the evening before their Champions League match.

Oh and fuck Chelsea.

Perversely, if we did want to help Chelsea as the last English club, the culmination of that could be knocking ourselves out of next season's CL - Chelsea winning the CL and finishing 5th would take the 4th spot for next season.

I dont know what they are moaning about, IF they get through the first leg is at home.
It's not as though they have to come off the pitch and get on a plane is it?
Lets play for extra time.

what ?

common knowledge now that it was mainly the fault of the police

No, largely highlighted knowledge because controversy says it was mainly the fault of the police. Deeper analysis and exploration of the events that took place suggest it was the fault of various parties, some of whom the press are more itnerested in highlighting than others.

The Sun might be a paper from the dickhead, for the dickhead and by the dickhead, and it's sensationalist approach to placing blame with the Scousers might have been both insensitive and mismanaged, but it wasn't a million miles off the truth.
