Brilliant! Chelsea rolled over by Newcastle losing 4-3 at home! Man City dumped out, losing 2-1 away to West Brom! And best of all, Liverpool crash out on penalties at home to Northampton Town! How the mighty have fallen!
Fans of the big boys will point to resting players and squad rotation but that is so much cobblers, if Northampton fans will excuse the pun! Nobody made Ancelotti, Mancini and Woy treat the competition with contempt, and their decision to do so has blown up in their faces. How dare Man City and Liverpool, especially, demonstrate such arrogance? It's not as if they are winning trophies every season is it? Dear God, Liverpool might even struggle to qualify for the Europa League via the Premiership this season, so passing up on the Carling Cup is nothing short of crass stupidity!
The rot really has set in at Anfield. When this blog suggested, more than a year ago now, that Liverpool could actually go bust, Scousers howled abuse. Well now that is beginning to look like a real possibility. The once great club is on its knees in a cesspool of debt and the squad is so wafer thin that they can't even beat Northampton at home!

Avram to lead west ham to a 15th place finish and a cup in the cabinet
Wouldn't mind that
Well lets try and get our first league win of the season against the yids.
With the possible exception of Arsenal, I'd be happy with a home draw against just about anyone that's left.
Passage into the last 8 is a real possibility and, with an improving side, you just never know.
I have never really understood any side outside the top 4 not taking one of the two competitions they have any chance of winning seriously.
I'd rather avoid Man Utd mate. Owen scores against us for fun!
look to your own club before mouthing off. Hammers arnt in exactly the best position....
We are still in the Carling Cup! And we don't have to play Konchesky at left back! And we are in debt, but our debt is about one fifth of yours! Oh, and we don't live in Liverpool!
Well said HF!!
We have a great chance and isn't Parker playing well!!
