Cache problem with one site

I have a problem with not getting the latest version of a page on one site (that I am aware of). I can get the latest version of http://www.thefa.com/thefacup/more/competition-bulletins on IE but Firefox gives me a page that hasn't been updated. Attached file 1 shows the Firefox cache entry, file 2 shows the page displayed on FF and file 3 shows the page on IE. This has been a problem with that page since I started using FF over a year ago. The only way to get the latest version is to "reload the current page" which is not a major problem but is annoying. Is this likely to be happening with other pages that are not so obvious or is it some incompatibility between that page and FF?

Hi jlsx, it is possible to disable cookies for this page. Websites say cookies are blocked - Unblock them

To clean out the site's cache every once in a while, it is also possible to Forget this site from the about:permissions page. Permissions Manager - Give certain websites the ability to store passwords, set cookies and more

I disabled cookies and deleted the existing ones for this site but it didn't make any difference - I didn't expect it to. I didn't try "forgetting" the site as my understanding is that this just clears the cache and cookies at that time but it doesn't stop them being saved again. Is there a way of not caching a specific site? If not, I'll just continue to "reload the current page" when I need to.
