With our record in penalty shootouts I don't hold out much hope if it goes that far.

I was thinking about this earlier and trying to think of who could take them for us. I came up with Murphy,Sears,Parr,Tabb and either Anderson/Bru?.

Seems destined to end up in penalties for some reason

A : Just make sure you f**king win

Away goals count for little in these end of season competitions now so a no score draw would be enough for Town to take it to spot kicks. I hope there's not a scenario of Bucharest '86 with us playing ten behind the ball for 120 minutes and forcing it by way of a shoot-out. I'd rather see us go for it with decent attacking play and get at them early on and go for the victory. Sitting back and playing defensive could well work in the oppositions favor. (It's) Asking a lot to keep Norwich out for two hours without a goal.

Still believe it will be decided after 90 minutes without even need for extra-time.
