Interesting opponent Liverpool will face in the next FA cup round...I must say I am very impressed by there opponents (Havant & Waterloovile) reaching this far, but I don't think they will get further than this!

No one predicted them to get past Swansea so who knows, it might be worth putting a pound or two on them and watching it turn it to a few hundred

True !! I never thought they would get by Swansea...but hey its the F.A. Cup, so good luck to Havant & Waterloo...at least there on an earner

Well if they managed to overcome Liverpool, their names will surely go down in history. Anything is possible when it comes to FA cup especially now when Liverpool is having a crisis.

Even though Liverpool are not performing at their best..this tie looks like 'one way traffic' to me

i think to make things more interesting and even, liverpool should play their younger players, though with so much at stake that is not going to be the case. however, fa cup is a funny competition and by some miracle havant may pull off what would surely be the biggest upset in FA cup history or has something similar ever happened before in the FA.

Upset ? Try these for example, 1926-27 Season F.A. Cup Final, Cardiff City 1...Arsenal 0. 1986-87 Season Wimbledon 1...Liverpool 0

I doubt Liverpool will field a younger squad. They'd want to get this game over and done with and not risk any more embarrassment to their squad.

Some other notable 3rd round F.A. Cup shocks were:-
1933 Wallsall 2...Arsenal 1
1972 Hereford 2...Newcastle 1
1975 Burnley 0...Wimbledon 1
1989 Sutton Utd 2...Coventry 1
1992 Wrexham 2...Arsenal 1

well, as things turned out, it was just the big names that were able to stifle a very plucky team though liverpool can't take much out of this rather hollow win because for havant to lead twice must surely give them quite a few bragging rights?
