m(OMEN)t of the week - A Little Birdie Told Me My Team Was Going to Win, says Davey
While the romance of the FA Cup is still alive and kicking after Barnsley dumped Liverpool out (and earning a quarter-final tie against my beloved Chelsea after that), further interviews revealed that on the morning of the match, Barnsley manager Simon Davey was assaulted by bird shit while strolling in the park. Luckily, it turned out to be a good omen for him and his team. Goal-scoring hero Brian Howard said "'It's probably the best feeling I've ever had in football. I can't even describe it. I'm still away with the fairies at the moment." Manager Simon Davey added: "Yeah, I feel exactly like everything he said, except I had a pile of bird crap on top of my head".
