    What?!

    A win against Chelsea all day long.

    We've had plenty of relegations in our recent history. We've had pletny of cups and Wembley appearances too.

    What, we haven't?!?!?!

    I'm desperate for this cup me like. Never won anything in my lifetime. Besides Our domestic honors are not complete until we win the league cup. Plus we'd qualify for europe by winning a competition. That means so much more than 6th place finish to me.

    Its all about weinning things Bri.

    In the years to co9me, you won't remember Wigan and Birmingham getting relegated, but you will remember them winning the two cups.

    Leagues placings are temporary, cups wins are less temporary.

    Bit of a silly poll really.

    Poyet will be aiming to win both of them. So should we.

    We are relegated already, so we might as well have a go at a cup!

    I think you need to go away and check the rules ........ I think you'll find that the FA will only say you're down when the bookies pay out <ok>

    I'd bet Birmingham fans would swap their league cup win for a place in the premier league

    because the side manages to string a few passes together in one game the expectation level has rose ,make no mistake norwich will be very hard to beat ,stats are great on paper ,means very little on grass if that ball dosent hit the net

    In life, when I've prepared for the worst, it's been a deep personal exercise. I didn't spread my bleak word, it's something I've kept to myself . Everyone is different I spose. If you believe we're down before the halfway stage of the season that's fine, but the optimists and even the realists will be all over it. You don't give up on everything in life that easy do you fella? :)

    You're starting to Sound like Big Gun Gus, Stu, you can't score unless you put in all the other work, unless you want us to play direct route one football? Are you still in the football dark ages with Big Sam? Stu?

    Last 5 games Passing average.
    Vs West Ham 81.9%
    Vs Spurs 80.4%
    Vs Chelsea 74.9%
    Vs Villa 78.9%
    Vs Stoke 85.4%

    Stu, you should really start checking your facts as your false opinions are flowing at the moment. Expectations have risen after many games of improved performances not just one as you claim.

    Norwich could be Tough, It could be easy too, we'll see. My point is expectations have risen with the performances on the pitch, if you can't see it mate, it says more about you then the people you say are getting carried away.

    Dare to believe Stu, Like the Scots did at Bannockburn.
