By who and who cares? No, their fans wanted to see Plymouth win, regardless of who played for the opponents.Solidgone said:Liverpool should be banned from taking part in the FA Cup, in fact all domestic cups and a heavy fine for playing their 2nd and 3rd stringers players. Although Argyll will be pleased of their win but it's undervalued. I’m sure all the fans that turned up wanted to see their first team regardless of the result. It’s not often premiership players turn up in their neck of the woods and this would be their rare chance.I’m sure Liverpool fans that made their way to Plymouth to watch their team would be equally disappointed.For me now, Liverpool can go and fuck themselves and I will be hoping that don’t win the prem or any European silverware.Grrrrrr!
There are no 'buts' in the record books. They're in the draw for the next round. Liverpool and all their money aren't.
Seen comments about it not being a priority for the top teams. So when was the cup a priority for any team, except for on the day the ties are played? Who wouldn't want to win the FA cup. Liverpool certainly would, priority or not.

And if we were playing a poor L2 side, would we put out a full strength team?swordfish said:

If Jones or Campbell limped off injured at Tranmere or Morecambe, there would be loads of "FFS why are we risking our main players when we have a crucial league game against Northampton coming up" type comments here.2 -

Here lies the problem:
Competition Prize Money for Winners FA Cup £2 million Europa League €8.6 million Premier League Approx. £160 million (including broadcasting revenue) Champions League €25 million (base prize) + potential earnings exceeding €85 million 3 -
Well if it too much of an inconvenience, they shouldn’t have made a song and dance about replays.eaststandmike said:

Replays that can secure non-league levels for some years
As I mentioned earlier, the FA should have grew a pair and at least caveated in the amount of first team players expected to play prior to rollling over.5 -
Doesn't help that loads of games they put on TV end up being all Premier League affairs, the teams that really don't need more exposure and more TV money6

I think their rearranged game against Everton this Wednesday may have played a big part in team selection.
Nice to see some Charlton fans redirecting their anger elsewhere, now we're on a decent run in the league.1 -
And battling to avoid relegation is far more important to Plymouth than progressing in the FA cup, but they have.ElfsborgAddick said:

Some Liverpool fans will trot out the line saying they can do without the distraction to console themselves, but they've been embarrassed and are out, out, out, leaving themselves open to ridicule. They won't be happy.

Liverpool have 5 games in 15 days including City, a cup final and the last Merseyside derby at Goodison. They had to rest players, maybe Slot went too far and should have had some big hitters on the bench but I get why he did it0

There's a difference between money and status and a crossover area. If Liverpool can't recognise that then fuck em.0

Both do, however it's incredibly rare that both are won by teams that aren't in European spots in the League already.ForeverAddickted said:

Oh come on. People moan on here about us being forced to play X amount of first teamers in the Bristol Streets trophy or whatever it is called now, and they we should play the kids and take a fine.How many international players did Liverpool play in this game.Up to them if they rest players and I hate Liverpool.0

I think all this is fair comment. When you look at Slot's starting 11:fenaddick said:Liverpool have 5 games in 15 days including City, a cup final and the last Merseyside derby at Goodison.

You could legitimately argue that the midfield and right back was very much second string but there was still a lot of PL quality and experience in that side.
Whereas if you look at the bench:
...it's a shocker, full of bit part players and kids.
Going a goal down he did the only thing he could do and threw Nunez on. But the truth of it was Plymouth were playing out of their skin, they were rubbish and when he needed Salah, TAA, VVD, etc. but particularly MacAllister and Gravenbach to get a grip on the midfield, the silly sod had left them in Liverpool.0 - Sponsored links:

If I was a Liverpool fan I would be demanding the game is replayed.
No reason to, but that doesn't usually stop the moany pricks.7 -
Oh for the days when teams had 14 players in their squads and wanted to win every game.3

Some Liverpool fans will trot out the line saying they can do without the distraction to console themselves, but they've been embarrassed and are out, out, out, leaving themselves open to ridicule. They won't be happy.
The fans will be upset being knocked out but the club will not be too concerned. The only time the big boys worry about the FA Cup is if that is all they can win and Champions League qualification is not possible.

Don’t you mean “going from Surrey to Plymouth”?Lordflashheart said:My Mum’s husband is a Plymouth fan - so far going great for them - I agree, Slot has made too many changes, starting lineup and bench - imagine going from Liverpool to Plymouth to watch as as Liverpool fan (long fucking journey) and watch such, so far, such an insipid display by Liverpool0 -

Then bring back cup replays.MrOneLung said:Oh come on.

Literally the rest of English football had to adhere to the whims of twenty clubs. 725 other clubs dictated to by 20. They supposedly needed less games so they didn't overstretch their squad, they took that (it wasn't given to them, it was enforced) and then they play a second (third?) string side in the cup anyway, international players or not.
Stop them travelling thousands of miles for "meaningless" friendlies just before the season starts if the little darlings are a bit too sleepy to play twice a week.
I don't moan about the Swiss Tony cup and I detest Liverpool FC with a passion, just for the record.

In the last 10-20 years I would say teams like Citeh, Arse, etc. have taken it seriously when it looks like they could win it, e.g. 1/4-final onwards.swordfish said:

Nah, sod the replays. Everyone says about if a small team holds a prem team to a draw, but you don’t find Exeter v Lincoln fans wanting to do it again.Algarveaddick said:

I don't moan about the Swiss Tony cup and I detest Liverpool FC with a passion, just for the record.90 mins straight to penalties- would get far more upsets that way.Take Tamworth Spurs for instance- 0-0 and penalties after 90 rather than a 3-0 capitulation in extra time2 -
Don't bother with the 90 minutes, go straight to penalties. Surely all the big teams would be happy then...5
