Che Wilson's verdict on Norwich City 1-1 Bristol Rovers
Former Norwich City and Bristol Rovers defender Che Wilson was BBC Radio Norfolk's pundit for the 1-1 draw in the FA Cup.
Here's what he had to say at full time:
"Credit to Bristol Rovers, I think they did really well."
He continued, "I think they appreciated that Norwich City are a good team. When Norwich had the ball they (Bristol Rovers) blocked up and stopped them from playing, but they also tried to play football in attacking areas.
"They had really, really good chances, so credit to them."
Wilson wasn't impressed with how the Canaries approached the game, though.
He said, "Norwich City - it was almost like they were in second gear, they didn't really get going with no real invention in the final third.
"When there was a little bit of invention and a little bit of energy injected into the game, they got rewards from it. I think the crowd at the end showed their frustrations."

City fan Lorraine Taylor got in touch and sent us this brilliant picture of a t-shirt she designed for the 1992 FA Cup semi-final, which Norwich lost against Sunderland at Hillsborough.
'We're on the march with Stringer's army' it says.
David Stringer was the club's manager at the time and took the side to two semi-finals in the space of three years.
They don't call him Mr Norwich City for nothing!

Norwich City’s poor home record in FA Cuppublished at 09:22 6 January

BBC Radio Norfolk’s Norwich City commentator Chris Goreham discovered a cracking statistic while preparing for Saturday’s FA Cup tie:
Since Chris Martin scored v Blackpool in 2007, the Canaries have played 14 FA Cup matches at Carrow Road. They’ve won two.
One of them was behind closed doors.
So they have only won once in the cup at Carrow Road in front of fans in 17 years.

Defender Dimitris Giannoulis is fit to start after recovering from a facial injury
Midfielder Jacob Sorensen is also available to play in the cup tie
Wagner said there will there will be changes to the squad during the transfer window, he indicated that some younger players could go out on loan

Wagner said he is a fan of the oldest cup competition in the world: "I like this FA Cup competition, we have already sold 18 thousand tickets. It's been a long time since we've had a home game (in the third round)"
Chris Sutton: '25% possession at home just isn't acceptable'published at 09:16 5 January

Former Norwich City striker Chris Sutton has posted his regular BBC Sport score predictions.
Sutton had this to say about the Canaries FA Cup third round tie against League One Bristol Rovers on Saturday (15.00 GMT):
Another of my former clubs, Norwich, had 25% possession at home to Southampton on New Year's Day. That's OK when they are playing a big club in the Premier League but, in the Championship, that just isn't acceptable. I don't really know what is going on under David Wagner, but it isn't going very well.
I am going to refer to the Canaries v Bristol Rovers as the 'Dave Williams derby' after the former Norwich player and assistant manager who came to Carrow Road from Rovers in the 1980s and had a major influence on my career when I was a youngster.
It's a nice connection for this tie but Norwich have to win it. They probably will, and by a deflected goal, but it has all been a bit underwhelming by them this season.
