    Teams in the league are gonna want to take us down a peg or two. Starting with Golden Boy Howard.
    All this dillusion about us having a chance to beat Chelsea...it just doesnt sit right.

    Nah, I think it makes a pleasant change.

    Its just like the 80 - 82 glory years for an old timer like me. We were never off the back pages then. Even had a backpage column dedicated to Big Trev's wonder goal one particular year.</p>

    I'd be more worried about

    our lot becoming distracted from the league games.I know Davey will do his best to keep them on track but when you see all the media attention they have attracted its natural that they will want to play in this game and mebbe not risk injury in league games.Its hapened before to teams with big cup matches looming esp. when it doesnt happen to them verry often

    Quite agree. Other teams will want to beat the team-of-the-moment and in any case all the praise by the media has an air of 'what right have this set of nobodies got to beat the cream of English football?' about it.

    Deffo. If we are the "form" cup team,

    then they are the form Championship team. And that is where our bread and butter lay !</p>

    I fear we may be brought back down to earth with a bump.</p>

    Can imagine Jeff Stelling saying...

    'Barnsley won at Anfield last week, but they won't be winning at Carrow Road this week!'
