Lamb for me. I ask for extra grey mess too. They just lash on my chips.
Lamb here too.  But no extras.  Why gild the lily?  Besides they chuck in extra meat.

Given all the teams who are already out, as well as those who are a bit crap this year, we should really be in with a chance of winning the thing. As it is, I think Bournemouth are actual favourites for tomorrow. Who knows, maybe they'll win the cup.

Seeing all the big teams going out today, my first thought was, we can win it this year. Am I mental or what? It shows I still believe!! We are massive.

One of the things I hate about living in Leicester is the lack of a good kebab.  There's thousands of kebab places but they pre-cut the meat and leave it to stew in a metal pot which just kills it.  About a month ago I found a good chip shop that's on the route back home from the Villa and cuts it fresh.  Kebab meat, chips and hot chilli sauce in a box is now my post match tipple.  Lovely stuff.

Wide open now for Bournemouth to win it. Winky thing! What a day, hilarious and brilliant in equal measure. It takes a lot for me to get animated about other games these days, but today just hit the spot. To see the Bradford fans celebrating at the home of those classless tossers brought a tear to my eye, though I could have done without seeing them wearing those half and half scarves. Spurs out as well which is almost as funny.

Yep.  The holy grail is crisp on the outside, succulent on the inside.

Yep, I have nothing other than lamb and hot sauce. Remember once many years ago doing the unthinkable and attempting to mail too large. However, I only finished the second large the following morning having woken up in bed with it next to me. Straight in the microwave, breakfast of champions.

When I lived in Leicester (30 odd years ago, mind), I recall going often to a very good kebab shop on Granby Street, on the right hand side going out of the city centre, just after Belvoir Street.  Not sure, but it may have been called Zorbas.

It's the way we roll around here. Would you want to be anywhere else?

Just watched the Bradford highlights.  Extraordinary.  Can only imagine what that must feel like as a supporter.

Back on topic, Palace must be happy with Pardew since he joined.

I can't remember a third round day like this. Chelsea, Citeh and Spurs out. Also Southampton and Swansea. Liverpool, Arsenal and united still not definitely through. I had two fivefolds on the cup today getting 1 out of 5 right on one and 2 out of 5 on the other. I would have been better off with a blindfold and a pin.

What about a fourth round day?  ;)

If we were a good side we would have a chance at the cup with the money teams going out. No doubt another missed opportunity.
