And so he was but that's beginning to seem a distant while ago. Our winner at Norwich was a classic partnership goal and Beckford's off-the-ball run was absolute perfection as I mentioned in another thread.

It was obvious from his record that Beckford had talent but I've been increasingly pleased with his application and the way he's finally forging a partnership with Nugent.

The nice thing now is that we're expecting to score at least twice and, once we get some midfielders and support players to chip in there's no reason we shouldn't score the goals necessary to achieve our aims.

They sent me to Forest v Cov last Saturday :o and I've got Birmingham-Forest next Saturday.

I don't mind covering Stoke - I quite like what Pulis has done and the football is effective. A bit like us under MON.

check out this lovely piece i read a few days ago.

The magic of the Cup

In some quarters Leicester's victory over Norwich was painted as an upset – the plucky Championship side prevailing over the Premier League team. The magic of the cup. Hooray for the underdogs.

But what happened at Carrow Road is the antithesis of everything the FA Cup should be. It was an utterly depressing example of what English football has become.

Leicester City are a Championship side bankrolled by a Thai millionaire who could afford to let his former manager, Sven-Goran Eriksson, embark on a summer spending spree. They were playing a side operating under tight financial restraints. Some underdogs. But then Leicester don't care about the FA Cup, they care about promotion. The manager, Nigel Pearson, admitted as much, damning his side's win and also the Cup with faint praise. "I hope it's a springboard for us to kick on in the Championship. The players can be pleased with their day's work, because this is still a very important and prestigious competition, but we have a very important game on Thursday [at Derby]." The implication is clear.

He was not the only manager who appeared less than bothered. Norwich City's Paul Lambert sent out a much weakened side. The leading goalscorer Grant Holt, goalkeeper John Ruddy, defender Kyle Naughton and midfielder Andrew Surman were all rested. The final whistle and elimination seemed almost to bring relief. "The main thing is staying in the Premier League," he said. "Will [being knocked out] be a blessing in disguise? Only if we stay up. But nobody would thank me if we got to the semi-final, got knocked out and then got relegated. Nobody would pat my back then." Norwich are currently eighth in the Premier League. Relegation?

There were 26,658 fans in at Carrow Road, Norwich's highest FA Cup attendance since 1984. That's just 375 short of capacity. If all those people care about the Cup, shouldn't the sides they're paying to watch care too? TB

Seeing as we are foxes we are more likely to shit in your garden, rummage through your bins, keep you up all night by mating in your back garden and eat your chickens,

I feel a new chant coming on.
