Home to Newcastle

[Mr Burns]

I'm going to the game dear, are you?

What game? You're going to the game that hasn't even been set yet? You might struggle to get a ticket with zero loyalty points. Unfortaunltey I dont think Listening to local BBC radio doing a two bob commentary gets you any points.

WOW.

Is it your first time at the Amex? Is it your first time watching the Albion?

It does make me chuckle that last night anyone who dared suggest Poyet should have fielded a stronger team apparently had no idea, and now everyone is desperate for a full team to play in the replay. We shouldn't even have this replay to worry about.

Nor forgetting they have two extra games against Cardiff in the League Cup semi final.

The second of which is a week before we play you, so what's your point ?

 

[Aquilaugh]

Palace won't be given a choice. Cup takes priority over league games. If the game needs to be moved, it will be, no matter what Palarse wants

Your game will be on Sat/ Sun so no need to move the league game, boy you lot are desperate.

Question is how does Gus feel about it. Does top class premiership opposition change his mindset in terms of team selection?

Demonstrates once again why the manager should not be allowed to piss about with not being interested in cup competitions. The potential loss of revenue would be horrendous.

I would suggest that you are the desperate one. No-one is talking to you and yet you still find the need for attention. We are speaking about the FA cup, who did you draw?

Beat Wrexham,draw V Newcastle at home,replay at St James Park on tuesday night,always wanted to go there,so sounds good to me.

 

[Seagull on the wing]

Surely the most important question if we win the replay is, what colour light bulb will be placed in the away end?

Thought that would be obvious.....black......lol!

Newcastle fielded a depleted team (the reserves) to beat Forest 3-4 away in the League Cup.

BBC Sport - Nott'm Forest 3-4 Newcastle (aet)

But appeared to play most of the full team to beat Blackburn (who KOed them of the League Cup)

BBC Sport - Newcastle 2-1 Blackburn

So what team each side plays is somewhat of a mystery. That's assuming we can beat Wrexham!

Could see us going full strength, which wouldn't include Demba Ba or Cheik Tiote because of the ACoN. Probably be something along the lines of Krul, Simpson, Williamson, Coloccini, Santon, Obertan, Vuckic, Cabaye, Jonas, Best and Ben Arfa. We are definitely beatable, we don't create an awful lot away from home and when we have done we've relied on Ba a lot.

I just hope you win the replay, really want to play you lot.

My feelings exactly. I have had a couple of memorable trips to St James' Park, Cardiff on a friday night and Wolves on a saturday.. I'm sure I don't need to tell you that Newcastle won them both quite handsomely. I was planning my annual trip up for March, this could save me a trip. Get you gents down here for a draw, then get up to Newcastle for the replay and win 1-0 with a few dodgy decisions! Glorious times ahead.

So long as don't play the kids at Wrexham.

Plus it's Pardew and his record against us isn't brilliant
