Blackpool to Rock Norwich?

FA Cup Norwich City
by wallybrain (U2741396) 26 January 2007
comment on the article

Well, Lawro's got this down as an upset for Norwich and I'm afraid that I have to agree with him for once, as much as it pains me. With Earnshaw injured, a team with thirteen players out of contract at the end of the season - many of whom are not bothered whether they win, draw or lose - a terrible away record, a spiralling into a relegation dogfight, not to mention the great form of the Seasiders, all spells disaster for the Canaries. Alas! But, at least we made it to the fourth round! How many times have we done that in the last ten years? Twice? Of course, I'll be cheering the lads on, but will be surprised if we come away with a win. I just don't think we're good enough. I'm being realistic, not pessimistic. Hopfully I'll be proved wrong! ON THE BALL CITY! And all the best to the Seasiders as well. What do the rest of you think?

I spoke too soon! There was almost 20 seconds coverage on MOTD last night, showing three pieces of action. WOW!

The replay has to be an almost surefire bet for TV coverage, unless everyone draws today.

Don't be silly - there was a Premiership team that drew yesterday. Can you really see Gary and the team slumming it at Carrow Road when there is the option of a comfy sofa and canapes at the Riverside!

No, really, who was that then ? I could have sworn that replays could be shown on Tuesday and Wednesday evenings.

You are forgetting about the attractive prospect of Delia's mouth-watering cuisine.

SO, after all the excitement of yesterday I still think Blackpool might nick it at Carrow Road. We haven't got anyone to poke the ball home with ease. I think if Earnshaw had been playing yesterday we would have won it comfortably... this is NOT to take anything away from the Pool, you played some impressive and very attractive football.

BBC confirm Arsenal Bolton as televised replay - what a suprise. Mind you Chelsea v the Pool looks good for some better coverage!
