Mr and Mrs Doggett are tucking into their pre-match snacks as the wind hurtles around Molineux. He's gone for the double cheeseburger with bacon while she is putting away the chicken and mayo burger with lettuce. Their daughter Cheryl has driven them here tonight and she is enjoying the veggie burger with cheese and jalapenos while her husband is struggling to prevent the meat from his bursting kebab from falling to the ground. The juices are dripping down his chin and his fingers are a mess of chilli sauce, salad residue and meat and fat juices.
"Luke out, it's dripping on yer shirt," says Mrs Doggett. "Luke, it's dripping all over his blawdy shirt."
"Aw, bogger," barks Mr Doggett,suddenly.
"Eh?"
"Citeh have just nicked the winner," he hisses.
"Ack, jammy bastards," snarls Cheryl's hubby as pieces of doner meat slip from his mouth.
What a refreshingly humble sight they make.

Preamble by Greg Bakowski :
Evening. It’s Saturday night under the floodlights at Molineux as two sides meet with fierce ambitions to win the FA Cup. It’s set up to be a cracker! Unless you’ve been under a rock for the past few months you’ll know that United are rejuvenated, adventurous and hungry again under Ole Gunnar Solskjær. You’ll also be aware that Wolves are seventh in the Premier League, playing some fine counterattacking football under Nuno Espírito Santo, and knocked Liverpool out of the FA Cup in the third round. So, I’d rate this tie as 50/50. Wolves and Manchester United both have the look of cup teams about them.
United will have been stung by the league defeat at Arsenal last time out, so Wolves’s defence will have to be on point, as they were at Chelsea, when they went this close to taking three points before Eden Hazard popped up in the dying embers of the game. Wolves and United have met once this season, at Old Trafford in the league. The score was 1-1. I can see another draw tonight, which would mean extra-time … and possibly penalties. Ah come on, we all love penalties.
