The FA Cup is meant to be the most exciting and romantic club cup competition in football. It was so cold yesterday sitting in the shade, that my feet are only just regaining a sense of feeling. Saints did what they had to do to progress to the fourth round - they won. At times it looked like Luton would score - but they managed to miss a series of easy chances. We were little better. The only difference being Rickie Lambert's ability to strike the ball from a free-kick. His first effort was clawed away by the keeper from the top left corner. The second effort from at least 25 yards sailed over the wall and screamed into the top right-hand corner of the net. On the ITV Cup highlights programme it was deemed to be the 3rd best goal of the round. You can see it here. I am actually clearly visible in this fottage next to my wife who came to shiver with me.
Well done Saints - hard luck Luton. I wonder who we will draw in the next round?
