FA Cup 5th round: Norwich v Leicester

[Biffa Bacon]

Manchester Utd struggled against Crawley last season when they were still in the conference, I'm not being a pessimist, they are a decent outfit.

So are Cheltenham and they are above Crawley but I still think we would expect to beat them.

Would of loved someone like Stevenage or Crawley at home, can see us winning this, but at the same time I can see us slipping up. So it'll probably be a draw, then another draw leading to extra time then we have a Cardiff style penalty shoot-out

Shitty shit shitearse draw of the highest order

Not sure which forum this Norwich fan is talking about

Didn't realise Leicester didn't like us so much. Their forums are not a nice place to be right now, but most notably they seem to say it'll be a boring game. Bit odd considering we it was 7-5 in our favour last year

I would expect us to beat them as well, but I'd want to avoid them too just because if they do cause an upset it will ruin any sort of confidence the team has

Would have.....

Had a little look at Foxestalk who are mostly on the point of slitting their wrists what a pessimistic lot most of them are, not too pleasant about Norwich either


Still it is Norwich

Nothing wrong with drawing a Premier League team. Don't know how anyone can say it's a terrible tie. It's not a dream fixture but it's certainly nowhere near the worst. It's a game we've got a decent chance of winning and, if we do go out, it won't seriously affect our confidence. decent tie for the club in my book.

Its a fine draw if you think that the FA Cup is a needless distraction. As The Major says its about the worst draw possible from every other standpoint - won't get much media attention; won't attract much of a gate; low chance of success - but I also agree Stoke away would have been worse.

won't attract much of a gate

I expect it will be close to a sell out. Norwich got 23,000 for their third round match against Burnley.

Shades of '63 - record attendance at Narch. Won 2-0. Bring it on.

Most likely FT.

Given our record at Norwich and their form this season it'll be an extremely tough task.

But turn it around and most will expect them to win, the pressure could tell.

That doesn't make sense, I want us to go as far as possible, a glamour tie would probably see us go out. Yes we'd get a bit of TV money perhaps but that's it. This is a good fixture in my opinion, we have a fair chance of going through to the quarters, whilst simultaneously avoiding the possibility of going out to underdogs.

20ft High chickens? scared because they don't know why they're so big, and they're going, "Oh why am I so massive?" and they're looking down at all the little chickens and they think they're in an aeroplane because all the other chickens are so small.

Bit cocky aren’t we? Not exactly the plum tie we were looking for but confident of beating you on your patch.

Doesn't seem cocky to me. The way I read that, he seems to be saying they've got a good chance of winning but losing wouldn't be too embarrassing.
