    Away at Barnsley in the fourth round of the F A Cup.
    Winners of that at home to Chelsea / Luton Town.
    The fourth-round ties will be played the weekend of 23-24 January.
    The fifth-round ties will be played 9-11 February.

    A few tasty looking ties coming up:-
    Cheltenham Town v Manchester City
    Manchester United v Liverpool
    Chorley v Wolves
    Wycombe v Tottenham
    Brentford v Leicester

    If we do get past Barnsley, I don't fancy Chelsea or Luton to be honest.
    Brentford v Leicester could be a good game.

    If we play Luton they'll probably do us again in the cup

    Bournemouth drew 1-1 at home against Millwall in their game in hand.

    A pretty good position to be in at the half way stage.

    Millwall had 7 shots on target compared to B's 2. And according to match report, a draw was the least they deserved.

    Of the ten clubs directly below us, eight have to come to Carrow Road in the second half of the season. Of those we played away, we beat 5, drew one and lost two. And we are now fairly injury free and finally getting into a winning mindset.

    I am confident the only way we will not get promoted is because Covid ends the season

    Always the possibility that if that were to happen promotion would be on finishing positions and points per game. Not sure that I will enjoy next season as much as this.

    I can't say that I have particularly enjoyed this season very much, to be honest. While the results are good, watching the games on dodgy streams and next to no atmosphere are sucking the life out of the games for me.

    Thankfully I will be back in the UK soon (the not so good bit is that I will be in Scotland) so can access better internet connections and even some sports packages to watch games with perfect quality.

    Sadly i agree Thai. I cant really think of any games this season that will live long in thr memory to be honest. We havent really put anyone to the sword, nor have we really masterminded any amazing last minute comebacks.

    Perhaps some of this comes from lack of live crowds, lack of intensity from all teams, or maybe just the fact that football seems a bit more trivial over the last 12 months than it normally does.

    The first half at Bristol City was the only real stand-out performance that I can recall.
    The atmosphere, or rather the lack of it, is the killer for me.

    I also think that having a condensed season doesn't help, It's like all teams are playing on battery saver mode so that they can play in the next game. That could be why we seem to be getting so many injuries this year.

    On the plus side this should be of huge benefit to teams with better squads.

    Our win today puts us 4 points ahead of Swansea who also won, but more importantly 8 points ahead of third placed Bournemouth, who lost, though Brentford, Watford and Reading have games in hand. The lead over 7th place has extended to a massive 14 points. That's all looking pretty good.
