Erm, OK... who knocked Swansea City out of the Cup in 1971? 
Any questions?

Well I was assuming he meant the FA Cup, where Liverpool beat Swansea 3-0 at Anfield in the 4th round in the 1970/71 season.
Of course he could have been referring to the League Cup. Well in that case it is Tottenham in the second round, again away and again 3-0. All though obviously that match took place before Christmas meaning that it was actually played in 1970. So, if we go forward a year to the 1971/72 season then the answer becomes Brighton & Hove Albion who beat Swansea at home 1-0 in the first round.
I think I've covered all bases here
Any questions?

Perfectly correct! 
Although I did mean to ask 1970, not 71...
