    Not sure if you're serious, so....
    Irony would be if you made a hash of spelling in a post criticizing someone else's spelling. It would be post-ironic if you were doing it deliberately to highlight the initial error.

    I was trying to help, to give you the opportunity to say it was deliberate and not look a tit.

    A question for Cardiff fans, little bit off topic.

    Why do we (English) need to pay toll gate whilst entering into Wales capital and not other way round? Thank you.

    I suspected that was the case. I hope you've learned from this schoolboy error. If ctiticizing someone's spelling, grammar or sentence construction, GET YOUR CRITIQUE CORRECT <ok>]

    I thank you for your efforts. However, I had to come clean.

    As for RHC. Calm Down

    Which strikers does every one think Liverpool should play.

    Bellamy - From Cardiff, played for Cardiff last season, played well lately and scored the key goals in the semi final matches. Deserves to play.

    Carroll - Very good against Brighton, and generally improved a lot lately. A cup final goal will just boost him even more. He's started to build some nice momentum which we don't want to interrupt.

    Suarez - Will obviously start. Not sure what he'll get from the crowd as the Brighton fans gave him a bit. But he is a top player, cup final goals will help boost him a bit.

    Kuyt - Been very loyal to Liverpool for the past 6 years and has been a big part of the team, scoring some key goals over the years. But Kuyt is yet to win a trophy at LFC as a reward for his work. But has had a bit of a roller coaster season.


    Also, Cardiff fans. Which striker pairing would you prefer against you?

    I never really looked it up before but this from wikipedia:

    "The toll is indeed collected on the English side, and only on vehicles travelling westwards from England to Wales, leading some people to describe it as a "tax on entering Wales", both in jest and also as a more serious anti-toll campaign.[11] Originally, tolls were charged in both directions, but the arrangements were changed in the early 1990s to eliminate the need for a set of toll booths for each direction of travel and the potential for traffic waiting to pay the toll backing up onto the bridge itself."

    i'd want carroll to play mate, gerrard and turner wont get beaten in the air, and they lack genuine pace, bellamy and suarez could cause serious damage if they turn up, you dont get players like that in the championship so it would pose a threat we havent seen this season.

    I strongly suspect you'll see all three of them at the same time at some stage during the match.
