Typical!!!

Football on the TV these days can be quite exciting, but nothing compares to watching the mighty Coventry City live in the flesh. Take this afternoons FA Cup Fifth round tie at Ewood Park against Premier League opposition Blackburn Rovers.

A thrilling match, with end-to-end action. Despite going behind to a Roque Santa Cruz corker after only thirty seconds, City fans kept the faith, unlike the many Manchester United sofa fans would've!!!

After Aron Gunnarsson (and for those of you who still haven't figured out who he is - SHAME ON YOU!!!) equalized, before Michael Doyle scored for the third game in a row, things looked good. That is until the fourth official paraded 5 minutes of injury time, despite there being no injuries within the game.

The only stoppage was what is now going to be referred to as the 'Cupid moment.' (I'm sure you can picture the pitch invader in your head!) After spraying roses all over the pitch, the highlight of the day has to be Clinton Morrison picking one up and presenting it to Chris Samba!

This is what the phrase, 'you had to be there' was made for!
