Norwich City v Aston Villa Pre-Match Thread

[exiled on the wirral!]

I hope not for all the lads and lasses that are travelling all that way!

2-0 to the villa

Come on you lions!

I've just got a text from a mate saying he's heard a rumour it's going to be called off.  I have no idea how substantial that is though.  Fingers crossed for those that made the trip (and a small smile for myself as my lift fell through and I couldn't go).

Just arrived at my hotel in Norwich.  Norwich is clear and about 3 degrees outside.  I did fear a problem earlier today as Suffolk and Cambs was covered in thick fog but it's as clear as can be outside at the moment.

That's good news, I shall have to console myself by listening to the match with Jack Woodward

But those travelling to and from Carrow Road this evening for Norwich City’s Capital One cup clash against Aston Villa shouldn’t have too many problems.

Phil Garner, from Norwich-based Weatherquest, said: “It’s going to be cold this evening but it will be dry and clear all the way through the game.

“The air is just so dry at the moment that there won’t be ice or frost and the paths and pavements running up to the ground will be ok.”

He continued: “Temperatures during the game will fall close to below freezing so a good scarf, hat and thick coat are in order for those going to Carrow Road tonight. But hopefully there will be enough excitement to keep the fans warm.”

Pet hate of mine. Weather forecasters treating people like 6 years olds and telling them how to dress !

In London, it's freezing and foggy, not that this has any relevance whatsoever.

Just past Cambridge and the fog is easing, was a lot denser closer to home!

In my living room the central hearing is on and I have a warm mug of tea and I'm moving no further than the kitchen/bog/radio between now and full time, not that this has any relevance whatsoever.

Come on the Villa !

And make sure you pull your hat down over your ears to keep the heat in.
