The Wycombe skipper also runs the rule over this weekend's FA Cup matches and recalls his few memories from the famous competition.

Hi everyone.

Beating Macclesfield last Saturday was a great result for us. Not only was the scoreline excellent, but it was a superb performance too. It's a good time of the season to be playing well.

Macclesfield are one of the few sides that have come here and tried to play. Teams often come to us and put men behind the ball, almost settling for a 0-0. In the first 20 minutes on Saturday, Macclesfield did not do that. They came to play their own game.

It did not help that our keeper, Ricardo Batista, was stretchered off in the first half after a collision with their forward. Jamie Young went in goal and played just like he has done this season. He made some excellent saves and kept a clean sheet.

Luckily for us Tommy Doherty scored a free-kick just before half-time. He's a really talented player. When he puts his mind to it he can be a massive influence for us. When your midfielders are scoring, that's a huge bonus.

Russell Martin scored another good free-kick to put us two-up before Matt Bloomfield scored the third with 25 minutes left. That was a good finish - we know he can do that. Very rarely have I seen relief on a player's face like I did when Matt scored. His role as an attacking midfielder is to take chances as well as creating them, so it was great for him to score.

Anthony Grant, who is on loan from Chelsea, did fantastically well on Saturday. He's a young player with a very promising career ahead of him. He's in negotiations for a new contract at Chelsea. I'm sure we will see him playing at a higher level.

I spoke to Paul Ince briefly after the game. He thought they played well for the first 20 minutes. It's very difficult for him because of the financial constraints at the club. He could not bring in the players he wanted in the January transfer window. But he's done a good job there and I think they will stay up, particularly if they play the sort of football they did in the opening stages against us.

We play Torquay on Saturday - that's a must win for both teams. They are at the foot of the table and fighting for their lives. They need points, but so do we, albeit for different reasons. After the excellent win against Macclesfield, we need to make that count by winning at Torquay. Six points in a week would be great.

Being an away game, we will train at Bristol City's ground on Friday morning before travelling down around lunchtime. It's been a quiet week. We have worked really hard in recent weeks so all the lads have had some time off. Hopefully that will help us.

It's The FA Cup this weekend. It's a special competition and one that's known all around the world. I had a few good runs when I was at Watford but never made the later rounds.

I do remember one game with Everton in 2001 when I scored to put us ahead, but we had someone sent off and Steve Watson eventually scored for them to win it.

As a boy growing up in England, I remember sitting down with my dad and watching The FA Cup Final on TV. It was a real football day. It was not just the game though, I used to enjoy watching the build-up too.

I remember watching the players on the coach on the way to Wembley and wondering what it would be like. That rubbed off on me more and more. When I was lucky enough to play at Wembley with Watford, going on the coach and seeing all the fans gave me just as much a buzz as walking out at Wembley.

I have been to Wembley as a fan too. I have been about half a dozen times to watch my team Liverpool. I probably went there more times than I did to Anfield.

There are some tough games to call in the quarter-finals. I think United will get through against Middlesbrough. They have a difficult European game on Wednesday, but they have some of the best players in the world in their squad. Also, Sir Alex Ferguson wants to win every game he plays.

I think Chelsea will find it difficult to beat Spurs. I watched their game with Porto on Tuesday night and they found it difficult. I can see them finding it hard on Sunday and a draw would not surprise me.

I think Blackburn will beat Manchester City. Blackburn are on a roll at the moment and are playing well. In Benni McCarthy they have someone who can always get you a goal. City on the other hand are having a difficult time.

That brings me on to Watford's trip to Plymouth. With my Watford connections, I am hoping my old club can get through. But going to Plymouth will be hard. I know Olly [Ian Holloway] very well. He will think it's a good tie. He will have his players really up for the game.

Olly is such a character, but he really knows the game and gets the best out of his players. The press love him because he always speaks to them, he rarely ducks a question. He plays on the fact that he's seen as being eccentric - I can't understand some of the stuff he comes out with. I bet he can't either!

How come you went to watch Watford v Manchester United at Old Trafford and sat with the away fans? What did you make of the reception you got?
Michael Linden

My mate is a season ticket holder at Watford, but he lives near me in Solihull now. Anyway, he said he had a spare ticket for the game at Old Trafford and did I fancy it? I have not been to Old Trafford since I was an apprentice, so I thought 'yeah'. So we went along and I met a few old faces, some who I recognised as fans from my time there. Anyway, I was queuing up for a coffee when a few Watford fans started to recognise me. It soon turned into hundreds and before long they were singing my name! I did not realise the Watford fans had that good a memory. I was not expecting it, so it was a great gesture. I was quite embarrassed though!

Tommy, you are a legend at Watford and thank you for everything you did for us. But what was it like when you first came to the club on loan from Southend, then scored against them?
Chloe Stevenson

That was my first goal for the club. It was a weird feeling. I did not get on with Peter Taylor, the manager at Southend, so that was a slap in the face for him. Myself and Dennis Bailey signed for Watford and played up front for the rest of the season. We were struggling against relegation at the time, but he scored six or seven and I chipped in too. That kept us up and was the start of my seven or eight years at the club, which were some of the best of my career.

Hi Tommy. Having played against Shevchenko, what do you think of him?
Lukasz
Before he signed for Chelsea, he was one of the top three players in the world. His goals-games ratio in Italy and the Champions League was phenomenal. When he came to Chelsea, he probably thought he would score more goals. He does not look as confident in front of goal, and as a forward confidence is vital. But having played against him, you can see that his movement, pace and strength is still brilliant. I have read that his legs have gone, but that's rubbish. When you are that good, you don't become a bad player overnight. He's going to be a top player for them.

Do you want to ask Tommy a question? You could ask about his favourite goal? Who is the best player he has played with? Email your questions to editor@TheFA.com.
