Our midfield 3 tomorrow is me, Pigeon and Purdy, don't get your hopes up.Liverpool please take these to town in the semi or final
Sky have already agreed the money with the Football League, it won't make any difference who reaches the final.So thats Fulham, Middlesboro and Chelsea through. I imagine the FA will be hoping for a Chelsea v Liverpool final for the moolah.
Always a harder game when you’re playing against 14 menBarcodes bottle it.
What about international broadcasters? Surely more international channels will want to broadcast Chelsea v Liverpool than West Ham v MiddlesboroSky have already agreed the money with the Football League, it won't make any difference who reaches the final.
TV rights are already sold. The League Cup is sold along with the EFL TV rights both domestic and international - it's why the EFL don't want to bin it and why we still have 2 leg semi finals as they contribute a massive chunk of the EFL's broadcast deal.What about international broadcasters?

Ahh okley doke, I thought maybe countries decided whether or not they want to live broadcast a final once the finalists were decided.TV rights are already sold.

Yep, so they say. Would have thought it was a fundamental for a sports kit manufacturer to make stuff that fits athletes but its not my area of expertise!Is that because the socks are too tight or something like that?
I guess it's possible that some nations haven't bought rights to the EFL and could buy one off games but the likelihood is these will be smaller/poorer nations that won't be paying much anyway.Ahh okley doke, I thought maybe countries decided whether or not they want to live broadcast a final once the finalists were decided.
Well in that case, I'll settle for a Middlesboro v Liverpool final then
Your not wrong, shows how fickle some fans are, he’s been immense for us but some have very short memories.Trippier went to **** after that argument with the toon fan, that fan has a lot to answer for
Will be interesting to see what teams both sides put out tomorrow. Liverpool have Arsenal next in the league, West Ham have Utd and Arsenal in their next two games. It might mean that both sides field weakened teams tomorrow.I guess it's possible that some nations haven't bought rights to the EFL and could buy one off games but the likelihood is these will be smaller/poorer nations that won't be paying much anyway.
And +1 for that final. I've got a couple of mates who are Boro fans that I'd love to wind up. That said, I'm not particularly confident about tomorrow. At best I think we'll see a mixed side with certain key players being rested and a mix of squad players and youth players.
As long as one of you beat Chelsea I don’t care, can’t have a mid table team like them fluking their way to europe next seasonWill be interesting to see what teams both sides put out tomorrow.
