No trains after 21:30 hours. Picked their time well to do that essential work.

Out of interest why is Janko ineligible in the cup?

Because he was signed after the original tie.

Think we can grab a win tonight! Won't predict a result though

My stomach's in knots already. Hoping the Macron ( why can't we call it New Burnden Park?) roar will be a weapon in our armoury. Rogers thinks we have a "beautiful" pitch and that it'll help them. Okay, Brendan, we'll see. Apparently our lads spent much of yesterday studying videos of Livepool's game (probably to avoid anybody else getting injured) . I have more confidence in N.L than the last four musketeers and I hope he can find an answer to what will be a Scouse onslaught. Our defence is about to be severely tested; hope we can do as well as last time.My next door neighbour plastic man and my Scouse born stepson in Yankee land won't be cheering for the Whites, but who cares? I will, so sod em.

Anything can happen. After all we once beat Chelsea in a cup final when we were underdogs.

Go on then, I'll play. Which cup final was that, then?

You, Worthy, our great historian?

It was a little before your time but Tango might remember... I'll post the answer later. I have to go and teach a class in religion and human rights (seriously) now.

Was it the War Cup?

Yes. FA Cup was cancelled between 1939 and 1945. Instead the Football League War Cup was played. We won the last one in 1945 so are still the holders.

Ahhh - learn something new every day. It was a couple of decades before my time, but then again, no excuse really.

I don't recall professing to being an historian though.

I was six at the time, so I'll plead extreme childhood memory syndrome on that one.

Big game for the boss, this. On the (proper) telly, against a big club, a great chance to really get some attention. Timing dictates that we've got half a side of new signings sitting watching, so he has to rally these tired old legs one more time. Luckily he'll have that new competition to inspire the incumbents - your place is under threat, but you've got the shirt tonight. I can't say I'm confident but, to use a fellow poster's username, I'm always hopeful. Come on you Trotters.

presumably because the new stadium sponsors are unhelpfully not called "New Burnden Park"

Apparently it's a set fee of £247,500 per broadcast for an FA Cup tie - including the replay. So we've made close to £500K with an incentive of another big pay day if we win tonight!

Come on you whites!!!!!!!!
