Thank you Liverpool and Tottenham.

Celtic out of league cup as well. I loved it initially when Rangers weren't allowed back in but Weiss the test now. Treble over.

Liverpool have been knocked out of the FA Cup eight times by lower league opposition since the start of the Premier League; more than any other club.

Interesting that Dr Fuentes is in court shortly to be questioned about his cyclist clients, but the Spanish government has stated that he can not be questioned about his football clients http://www.scotsman.com/sport/tom-engli ... -1-2761603 thoughts?

The two biggest football clubs in the world are Spanish, and have been performing at an amazingly high rate. Spain are the present World Cup holders and European Champions. Very few people really give a toss about cycling. The authorities are allowed to bust that open wide. But blowing apart Spanish football to its core? The politicians don't want to be involved in that. FIFA and UEFA don't want that. So just like the racial abuse allegation against Messi, this will be swept under the carpet.

Think it must have been his 'internal' punishment for admitting to diving vs Stoke.

Bad weekend for Merseyside, with the fans of the 'peoples club' booing when Moyes put Hetinga on, only for him to go and score the winner.

Liverpool would have beaten you. You're really going to have to screw up to not be in the 6th round. You should stick to booing at your substitutions.

Did they? Oops. He's not been great this season, but they shouldn't have booed him. Could have perhaps been the fact Moyes took a striker off for a centre back against a lower league side maybe that they were booing?
