FA Cup 2016

Round 3 game 1. Liverpool take the absolute piss out of the oldest cup competition. Bravo German manager and American owners, you've done the country proud.

Come on Exeter you've got a real chance here to do them!

he has an injury list as bad as we had right now...

Really can't see Liverpool getting anything tonight. Exeter seem extremely confident and rightly so.

Fancy Exeter to get at least a draw.

Disgusted with the lack of respect shown not only to the FA Cup but also to Exeter with the team Liverpool have named.
 

FA Cup 2016

why do you care for?

I care because the 3rd round of the cup from the draw to the playing of the games was once something special. The buzz around Exeter, particularly with the kids, is that the mighty Liverpool are coming to town and they turn up with that lot. Imagine the disappointment. It's a lose lose for everyone - if Exeter win, it de-valued, if they lose Liverpool feel justified. It should be like the European competitions where you name a squad for the competition and you have to work within that. At least that way they'd get found out later in the competition.

Summary - it's sh*t and it's yet another example of how football has lost a lot of its magic.

Disgusted that Stuart Attwell is allowed to referee in the oldest cup competition in the world.

Outraged, I am.
or livid.
or I might just watch the game and see who wins.
Good luck, Exeter.

The FA Cup lost it's most of it's magic years ago, playing the semi-final put another nail in it's coffin at Wembley.. non-league clubs keep the magic going for me.. not Exeter V's Liverpool... Liverpool should win quite easy I say..

Here we go...

Have to say, Liverpool look shocking. They won't get any better.

Exeter will win fairly comfortably I reckon
 

FA Cup 2016

Two players with more than four appearances tells me what Liverpool think about this.

I reckon there should be a rule that says once you have played a FA Cup game a minimum of say seven players that played in that game must play in all further games unless players are injured or suspended

Good job we extended Canos' loan otherwise he'd be playing now

Disrespecting his own supporters, Exeter's supporters, the competition, the sponsors, the TV audience. He's also sending out a very young team into a capacity sized crowd in an old style stadium - they won't like that.

Then he comes and talk to TV like we are all stupid saying that this match is too early for the recovery of all his first team players. What if it is a Champions' League match Klopp?..........yeah thought so!

So very happy to see Exeter take the lead, I doubt Klopp is bothered though

I'm not saying they're unknown but some of them have got three figures on their back.

Entertaining game, so far. :)

Yep agree with all of that, shame about the equaliser was hoping Exter might get a few. The whole of football except the obvious will be behind Exeter tonight due to the disrespect shown. Come on the Grecians !

Just spent a minute watching many angles of the goals on BBC whilst action is going on in the background. Not sure what happened but you could hear the fans getting rattled in the background.

Clearly talent in the Liverpool team, but how many divisions apart do these teams actually look at present? 1?

Think Exeter are slowing creeping back into this

Get in
 

FA Cup 2016

There you go.

Can't see Liverpool getting back in all honesty.

Think Exeter fully deserve their lead. Liverpool heading out

Should they be referred to as a "Liverpool XI"?

Bogdan = Stuart Nelson

Liverpool's kids defence is as bad as their 1st team. :eek:

Is Balotelli still at Liverpool? They should bring him on. He'd sit in the centre circle reading Twitter I reckon.

Or sat in the dressing room letting off fireworks.

I heard Steve Perryman being interviewed on Radio 5 Live before the game due to his Exeter connection. He is an example of someone who has a true love for this competition unlike Klopp. He said that he was once asked what his favourite Spurs chant about him was. He said he thought about this for a long time but eventually said it was 'when Steve went up to lift the FA Cup we were there'

Sums it up for me.

That Craig Woodman's a good player. ?

Shame the Head Gasket didn't get on the Exeter bench.

I love that Exeter still feel the need to write their name on match-balls! Although they are playing... no, no, we'll leave that!

Exeter started the better so far this second half.

Chrivilla on. Is he the one Twitter ***** has linked us with?

Still an enjoyable game. :)

Good game this, Klopp has done what so many foreign managers do and underestimated the FA cup and lower league teams.

So true. Only one team in it, I feel slightly sorry for one or two Liverpool youngsters, not so for Jurgen mind.
