Dumped OUT

CARLISLE UNITED 3-1 NORWICH CITY




THE CANARIES were unceremoniously dumped out of The FA Cup by a Carlisle side who were superb on the day. Carlisle goals came from Vincent Pericard, Kevan Hurst and Richard Keogh. With the Norwich goal naturally comming from THE GROLT.

Norwich's performance was nearly as dodgy as the reception from http://www.thefa.com/ which is how I watched the game. Through the haze, I just about saw Pericard give Carlisle the lead, showing why he boasts such teams as Juventus on his CV, with a superb volley. THE GROLT got his standard goal following brilliant work from Wesley.

15 seconds into the second half Pericard (literally) handed the ball to Hurst, who swept into the corner to give Carlisle the lead. Norwich flattered to deceive throughout, and although the neat passing was there, never looked like equalising. Carlisle wanted it more and battled hard and deserved their two goal lead that was given to them by Richard Keogh. Keogh headed home from a Graham Kavanagh corner, to put the game beyond any doubt.

Time for the old adage "lets concentrate on the league, its more important". Funny how its only ever the side who gets knocked out who thinks this.
