Pearson: Taking run one step at a time

Pearson: Taking run one step at a time

Leicester beat Norwich at Carrow Road in the quarter-finals en route to the 1963 final - which they lost to Manchester United.

Pearson's side repeated the feat on Saturday to set up a last-eight tie against either Birmingham or Chelsea.

Pearson said: "1963 was the year I was born. I think when you get to the latter stages people do start hoping and dreaming that you can be successful in cup competitions. I have been fortunate enough to have played in cup finals.

"There are a number of big sides no longer in the competition, but we have to take it one step at a time."

bsolutely delighted for Chelsea, what a story. Particularly happy for Drogba to (possibly) sign off a career on such a high note. Wonder how the spurs fans are feeling tonight.

eah yeah, whatever fatty. Keep trying to talk down a competition you'll never play in. I bet you'll get relegated next season and claim the 38th game is more important than the CL final too.
