Norwich fans say Third Round of FA Cup will test them against the best
Norwich face Brighton, from the Premier League, at Carrow Road from 3pm, today
Norwich City's game against Brighton in the FA Cup will test the squad against one of the best football teams in England - according to fans we've been speaking to
The Canaries will host the Seagull from 3pm this afternoon. The Premier League visitors are winless in their last four, while 'The Yellows' come into this one after back to back wins.
"Having a good run in the FA Cup would be a great thing for club"
Lorraine Taylor has been supporting the club for over half a century:
"I'd like the gaffer to pick a strong team and go for it. That being said, we have had a lot of injuries of late so I'd understand if a few of our key players were rested".
Chris Newby is one of the club's supporters now living in Portugal:
"Any possibility of us going on a cup run really depends on the draw and who we get, if we do get past this round.
"I think having a good run in the FA Cup would be a great thing for club and it would also give an opportunity to whole squad to be involved and play games".
Rob Sainty is Chair of the club's supporters group- 'The Canaries Trust':
"I'd perhaps give one or two of the fringe players a go, today. Amankwah Forson has earnt the right to start after his heroics against Luton, last weekend. The thing a balanced eleven would be good".
