Corney eyes Liverpool scalp

Oldham Athletic chairman Simon Corney is confident that his side can shock Liverpool in their FA Cup fourth-round tie.

The Reds travel to the League One outfit later this month after they secured a 2-1 win over Mansfield Town last night, while Oldham snatched a place in the next round courtesy of a 3-2 victory over Nottingham Forest.

"It's nice for the fans to bring a club like Liverpool to us because I think we've got a chance, I really do," Corney told BBC Radio Manchester.

Oldham lost 5-1 to Liverpool at Anfield in the third round of the competition last season.
