What allocation will we get for that?   6,000?

Bring it. Fucking mustard-humpers. Norwich ring road is rubbish, and the name of their river - the Wensum - is utterly laughable.

As a distinguished alumnus of the University of East Anglia, I feel that it's my solemn...oh fuck it. Puppet Man, Cacky Raphael, John Cleese, Malcolm Bradbury, Admiral Nelson - you bunch of sister-fuckers are going to get one-nilled all over Elm Hill, hent it.

Hard to argue with that. Delia's hot cross buns are lovely though.

I seriously doubt we'll take that many, possibly 3000 ?

Well, being based in the North I'd rather have liked one of the three Yorkshire / Teeside teams, but we managed to avoid all of them.
Not the worst draw, though (which is probably what the Ooooh-Aaargh fans are thinking).

Could have been better but could have been worse- Norwich made 10 changes against spurs and beat a strong spurs team- I'd expect lambert to play his strongest side but doubt hughton will do so, certainly we have a real chance but sorry to see arsenal and Chelsea get drawn to lower league teams.

Could have been easier. A home draw would have been nice. But a draw I will take and a game we will win.

Let's relive the 84 game. Massive following, comfortable victory, the last hurrah of the Villa arse slasher (I think).

We went early in the morning and spent all day in an unattended snooker hall helping ourselves to the bar and emptying the fruit machines.

It says a lot about the age of the average football hooligan in those days that the anarchy only stopped for half-an-hour when Grange Hill came on the telly.

both teams will think its winnable,
 the away draw doesnt bother me as we are not very good at home, whereas away we can relax a bit more with less pressure and hopefully put in a performance like Newcastle, Man city rather than Southampton.

its a proper 50/50 tie, all to play for

Better for us if we stay beneath the radar

An away draw in a quarter final - there's a surprise. Has been ever thus since the 70's as far as I can remember.
