If they get O'Neill & N'Zogbia in the same season what will they call for when it all goes wrong? That's both of their go to solutions!

In the entire Ashley era, our only home FA cup ties have been replays - Stoke, Hull, Plymouth

I say the same every year before our third round demise but fuck me, there's an awful lot of shit vs shit draws. If you get a good draw you can be at the business end of this without having to do an awful lot.

So did I, then I learned Jack Alwnick dropped a cross in stoppage time and they got beat

Tricky for the mackems.

Home to Blackburn then. HOME TIE!

Routledge made a mug of him in the Championship season at SJP and he got sent off. Duff & Lovenkrands raped him at the Hawthornes in the relegation season. Keep it on the deck and go past him - he's decent in the air because he's huge but get down the side of him and he'll fail.

We may as well just attack. They have Leon Barnett at the back for fuck sake, how he's found himself in the Premiership again I have no idea. Anyone with pace will murder him as we've seen time and time again.

After the weekend we've had so far, probably Chelsea away. We're due an away draw.

You haven't taken a trip to the pink'un have you? It's a shit hole of a forum

Norwich tend to play 4-5-1 with Hoolahan in the hole behind Morrison, Bennett and Pilkington either side. They quite often change it up though with lots of "samey" players, whether it be Surman, Jackson, Crofts - they're all much of a muchness. Hard working honest lads but not world class. They tend to use Holt as an impact sub but they may well start him if they cotton on that we have no centre halves.

Was a very costly day. After seeing Bellamy tear his hamstring and seeing Woodgate limp off, I knew in the back of my mind that we were really going to struggle against Marseille. Woodgate didn't limp off, he partnered Hughes at centre half after AOB got sent off with Dyer at right back. Woodgate got crocked against Chelsea a few weeks after IIRC.

Maybe he means Taylor, he came through the academy?

The free transfer thing has passed anyway hasn't it? Thought it was the same day as the Championship loan deadline (back end of November-ish)

"Yao" Gervinho

Patch him up or something, 5 days early.

Norwich yet to keep a clean sheet this season. Wonder what's going to happen here then

Thigh injury that forced him off rather than his bad back from last week. Worrying.

Reminded me of Given in the 5-1 hammering off Liverpool

Luck ran out today. Get the centre halves patched up for next weekend or we'll be losing again.

Why haven't Sky snapped up Chelsea/Liverpool and moved it tomorrow? Man Utd/Palace is a waste of a match

Damn the Coca-Cola [/Pards] cup

The subs, the pen, the usual. Can't complain to be honest.

4 Minutes...could be worse. Expected worse.
