Henclrikus: our Cup record

User Posted Link

Since Norwich last reached a semi-final in either competition in 1992, we've reached three solitary quarter-finals, in the '95, '96 and '13 League Cups. Newcastle have reached 2 finals, 2 semis, 6 quarter-finals and had loads of European runs on top of that.

Also, since our last semi-final in 1992, FORTY-SIX different clubs have reached a semi-final or better. Half the entire old Football League. As detailed in this post number 2 in this thread from a year ago (since when, Reading became number 46):

Again: I'm not bothered about today. I'm certainly bothered about a record like that. But still, congratulations on probably being the only Norwich City fan on planet Earth who thinks our Cup record is anything other than a staggering embarrassment.
