This is the greatest new insult of this century and I promise to call at least 10 people every day spacegoats until it takes off
I have to say I like it myself.

You do know what this means, it's so on next season! Kenny!!!!!!!11
It's amazing what a draw against a Championship side can do for your confidence.
It was an interesting game really, two evenly matched teams (and possibly evenly matched squads) can sometimes make for a dull game, not this time though. Liverpool must be very proud of themselves for overcoming such a huge obstacle.
...and...now that the pool of the great liver bird has won the cup, that is made up of those teams that occupy the league of England, we must claim our throne as masters of the English game!
For we, the team from the Mersey have claimed the English league cup by beating the great English war...Welsh...warriors of Cardiff.
Because when we and Cardiff met of that hill between us, we ran up that hill like the great Kate Bush! Because we are Liverpool! The victims! Running up that hill...to the league cup! To next year!!!!!
Oh give over you scouse bastards, oh how lucky I am to be a United fan!

More money for Kenny to invest!
Some trivia:
As well as:
Ah yes the famous League/Fa Cup record that we hold so dear, I can't believe we've let them catch up to us on that...
Liverpool have equalled Man Utd's record of 15 League/FA Cups (8/7 for Liverpool, 4/11 for Man Utd).
Does anybody outside of Liverpool even care about this record , until I read it on here I did not even know about it

Negative and Pessimistic fans.
So countless draws against the likes of Swansea and Norwich is something to be cheerful about?!
Someone in the pub who is pointing out the obvious - but RAWKites don't understand sanity.

So have the new dawn of Liverpool started today?
i knew they would bring that up
and now 18-5 vs 19-3 gives them advantege...they're biggest English club again There's a lot of embarassed supporters on there trying to hide it with "feck it, we won, now bring on the FA Cup and 4th spot" type posts. It's weird, they aren't as estatic as I thought they would have been, probably because deep down most of them know they haven't got a good enough squad or manager to make the leap forward to winning league titles and European Cups again.
There's quite a few people who are really not happy about drawing against a Championship side in a final at Wembley - they're probably banned by now though.
You're kidding me surely?
I was expecting them to call for knighthood for Daglish and how now they're going to take over the world. I haven't seen RAWK but if what you're saying is true then fair enough. Perhaps there's hope for them afterall.
Don't get me wrong, they are still on a different planet to the rest of us. Loads of them still actually believe that Kenny and the current players will fire them to glory because of this Carling Cup win.
But there's a few pissed off people on there tonight.
For example:
EDIT:
Actually scrap everything I've said KM - I have just seen the quote Skywarden has found
No doubt about it - he's completely right.
I've never been so envious of a league cup win in my entire life, to beat Cardiff at penalties - it's what dreams are made of.

The BBC were telling the viewers how this trophy is a springboard to bigger & better things for Liverpool. They clearly forgot about the outcome of last seasons winners
I've a few on an Irish League forum I frequent telling me I'm jealous. I hadn't even realised. Thank God they're here.
In fairness, I wish Arsenal had won the league cup this year. That bloke is right - you win any cup final, and you shouldn't complain. Should be a great day for Liverpool fans.
Yep this is true and I hate it when people don't value the League Cup - because at the end of the day, it's still a trophy and that's what football is about.
But anyone who thinks that this win will springboard Liverpool into the Champions League and to winning titles in the next few seasons is either deluded or a Bin Dipper (although both go hand-in-hand a lot of the time).
They're 7th (SEVENTH) in the fecking league after spending £100 million quid. When Man Utd last won the League Cup, we were contending for league titles at the time.
That's the difference.
I imagine Arsenal fans aren't having a bad day either
Yes, magnificent day today. Never knew we had it in us!
It's not going to springboard them into being a league winning side, clearly. They were painful today at times. But a win's a win, and who knows, they might even win the FA Cup this year as well. I'd happily finish 7th this year if we added two cups to our record.
To be fair, while I was happy when we won those two league cups recently, the jubilation wore off almost as I left the stadium and came to the realisation that we had much bigger fish to fry. I can honestly say I am in no way even slightly envious of them winning today. Disappointed, maybe, but not envious. I guess the fact they don't compete for major honours means it has a lot more significance to them that it does to us. Fair play for that, but it shows how far that club has fallen.
And on another unrelated point, I'd rather finish in the top four than win the league cup. As funny as its been that Arsenal haven't won a trophy in years, they've consistently got a top four spot and been in the Champions League. The likely scenario that they fail to finish in the top four this season is when it starts to get worrying. But I'm sure most scousers would swap their win today for a top four spot, which is almost completely out of their grasp.

Spurs might win the FA Cup this year. Or even Chelsea.
I don't know what suggests that Liverpool will walk to the final and win it? I'm not saying they won't win it but what about the other sides in the competition?
If I was a betting man, I'd put money on the team 3rd in the league, not 7th. But luck is needed to win cups and Liverpool had theirs today.
Alastair, if you support Liverpool, just say.
In years to come they'll be asking the question;
"where were you when Gerrard missed that penalty?"
"where were you when Gerrard missed that penalty?"

That's nonsense anyway. It's only that when the likes of us and Chelsea pick it up during a season when we're already on the way to winning the league.
feck me, Liverpool couldn't even make winning the Champions League a springboard to being any good.
He does it to get a rise out of United supporting Cafites, he's always at it.

Yeah, 7th place reflects the amazing footballing abilities you have.
Why isn't their a site called "liverpoolplayerswalkingalone.com" with just pictures of Liverpool players somewhere all alone. I find it so weird that Liverpool supporters celebrate on the internet by posting YAWN. What has that got to do with winning. Do West Ham supports say FBB. We say glory glory because that has got to do with winning.
For once (or this might even be the second time) I agree with you.
They've lifted a trophy and should celebrate. Forget the fact that up until a few months ago, they all belittled this competition and the recent Suarez bollocks, a trophy is a trophy. Well done Liverpool.
I do look forward to going back to laughing at you lot, probably next weekend
The Carling Cup win buys Dalglish a few years, which is good news from a United perspective.
If they'd lost this, big questions would be asked.
Dalglish has brought them their first silverware in 6 years, albeit in the competition most other big teams use to blood youth and keep fringe players happy.
Should be enough to keep the success deprived dippers happy for the foreseeable.

feck me. What a joke.
Not that it's happened, but I'd rather Arsenal finish fourth with no CC, than win the CC and finish in a Europa place or worse.
I think we should remain objective, and unlike Liverpool RAWKites, not allow our tribalism to take over and haze our views.
Given the mess Benitez and Hodgson left them in, and putting aside the disgraceful behaviour from this club over the entire Suarez affair (I though will never ever overlook it, the incident is enshrined within their history, come what may), Dalglish deserves credit for winning a trophy, any trophy, and the Carling Cup, for a club of Liverpool's current standing is a good achievements and should not be belittled by United fans because we hate them so much.
As we saw with our win of the trophy in 2006 (first taste of winning something for so many of our squad at the time when Mourinho and the Chavs were blitzing everything else in sight; or conversely, Arsenal's failure to win it last year and the huge detrimental effect it had on their season last year carried over into this season), winning the Carling Cup can act as a genuine springboard from which to launch significant progress from.
It not only injects some funds into the club, but also players win something wearing the club jersey, the emotional bond is slightly stronger and tangible progress can be evidences.
Lifting a trophy at Wembley for the first time in front of 35,000 adoring fans must be a wonderful feeling. And if the manager is any good, he will bottle that feel good factor and then liberally wave the aura in the air of the coming months to ensure a very strong finish to the season.
With Spurs getting smashed today, and assuming we can beat them next week, suddenly that leaves places 3 and 4 all up for grabs ... with Spurs, Arsenal, the Chavs Liverpool and Newcastle all in the mix.
If Liverpool beat Arsenal next week as well as their game in hand, they will put themselves squarely in the mix and then its a very interesting run in and a fascinating sub plot to this seasons PL race (The Champions obviously coming from Manchester).
No matter how the ended up winning it, Liverpool fans should be delighted with this win and the club should enjoy a 'bounce' factor. They have enough quality players to make a real challenge for 4th.
Its just a shame they blew £35m on Carroll when that money could have been so better spent .... but hey, all managers (or Owners) can make huge transfer mistakes (ourselves buying Birtles, Veron, Forlan but to name a few, and the Chavs with Shevchenko and Torres thus far).
As a sideline, if this is the beginning of the Liverpool renaissance (I hope it is, the Premier League is better with a strong Liverpool), it will come at the expense of probably Chavski in my opinion. Wonder what Torres is thinking right now.
