Oh you have nothing to worry about on that score West Ham are beaten before the coach hits the M62 when it comes to Anfield matches . I still remember standing in the Anfield road end and losing 5-1 many moons ago after pretty much running the show first half . John Lyalls last game as manager .

Lol , yeah next week will be interesting for sure . Difference is we had nothing to lose because we always always lose at chelsea anyway . Same as Anfield . 1963 last time we won there so the fans want us to go for it but BFS wont . You have a cup final at stake

You have Pace there steve and Cahill & the other Oaf cant cope with it . Thats why Hammers fans were outraged on boxing day . BFS had the opportunity to go with Sakho and Valencia up front with Downing at the tip of the Diamond which brought us our early season successes but chose to plod about with AC reverting to type. Imo The plastics are vulnerable when you have a real go . BFS wouldnt but your lot have to so im looking forward to it

Good to get a liverpoooool fans view of it . Not my view but the general concensus down here is that the reds will get battered at the plastics next week . A Liverpool v Blunts final would be nice

Well that didnt work out did it What do you reckon on your chances next week stevey ? You have your annual rout against us the following saturday ? Are the reds coming into form or was it just what you should have expected from the home team in a semi-final ?

Exactly the same as me mate except i dont need a tail rubber for my run ring Though i do sometime apply a Gardner rig sleeve depending on the hooklink material . Would you say leadcore is an improvement on mills bombs then ? A little tip from one of my Albanian ex-colleagues

Me neither Jon , that is kin 'orrible ! There will be those that will blame that on an Otter or Mink or whatever but you can clearly see where a leader of some sorts has literally sawn through the fish . I was toying with the idea of using tungsten tubing of some sort this year instead of my mainline straight through but in an event of a breakage it would just slide off the line anyway so wouldnt acheive anything except make my end tackle visibler ( is that a word ? Lol ). I think i'll stick with what i do i'd hate to think there was 1% chance of me being responsible for something like that . This AC geezer needs to elaborate a littke bit . Put up or dont comment is the phrase i believe .

THAT is down to Leadcore Jon ?

Was a good game . Lived up to the hype for a change . Now for that shower of dogs faeces tomorrow night . Wish they could both lose

The toffees are in a sorry state i cant see Martinez lasting much longer tbh . Hope liverpool go to the plastics next week still in with a shout stevey .

Chod rig Stiff hinged rig Withy pool rig Combi rig Google is everybodys friend jimmy By the way , imo simple is best so youre straightforward pop up rig is fine mate . Just need a reliably bouyant bait thats all and a good way to attach it , very short hair or D rig style

Kevin Mirallis i LOVE you :)

Ahhh but will i get a discount for pur-chasing 30kg of it ?

What are Mainline boilies like ? :) :)

Well as you lot are aware , i've been down on my luck lately . Well i won £600 on the footy tonight so thats MY bait sorted out for the year

Thats what its all about mate and i couldnt agree with you more . Long may it continue

Certainly not young man , there was a certain match fisherman

A good victory Dal mate

I refuse to rise to that The wet spam thing that is . City need a break to get back into it methinks

Can you get hold of PVA bags in OZ ? Or a Spod or a Spomb ?

Sounds like a good 'un Jim , fished along with your hybrid you cant go wrong eh ? I'll probably be targetting a different much harder lake this year and can do with as much help as i can get so anything you dont blank with mate , gis a shout

Always a straight forward running lead for me , unless im naked chodding Been experimenting lately with a few different set ups including inline running leads and shocker rigs and will probably continue to do so . Cant stand lead clipped semi fixed set ups , i get fed up with single bleeps , getting done and im convinced the Carp use the lead to throw the hook, although i have used heli-rigs and would afain if i deemed ut neccessary . Everyone to his own , you'll get loadsa different replies here A good read ...http://www.carp.com/topic/1872-semi-fixed-bolt-or-running-leads/

Where did i say that pray ?

When i mention tangles Liam i'm talking about after being " done " following single bleeps on the buzzer .I switched to running leads and , until recently , completely eradicated single bleep syndrome and improved bite indication tenfold . Until of course i bumped into mr Bream

Strangely enough Liam , when im fishing i seem to be the only one slack lining albeit with running leads . I just wonder whether they are slack lining yet back leading too ? Would that make it APPEAR to be a tight line ? I used to do what you do , with lead clips etc but got too many single bleeps / getting done / tangled hooklinks etc so switched .
