FA Cup 5th Round Draw 2019 - Newport (a)

[kaz7]

Are people really complaining,we have got this

 

[remember arthur mann]

It'll be more difficult to get tickets for NC - ground only holds about 8,000, so we'll probably only get 1500-2000, if we're lucky.
Any chance they may switch or does that not happen now?

Always nip down the road and play at the Principality.

When is their replay now? When do we find out which of the two we get as TV games won’t get picked till then I guess and then tickets too ...

Although I think whichever it is, we’d be on TV finally ... they’ve got 5 ties to show out of 8, so surely we get in this time?

Oh yes pal was there in the late 80’s I recall with a real good bunch of blues !

So if you've seen us there why the hell would you want to go again? That night game in the third division was enough for me. - Which doesn't mean I wouldn't go if we drew them.

So United play PSG, then Chelsea, then Liverpool.

So Liverpool are the real winners.

Lose to PSG & Chelsea then take the anger out on the dippers. Here's hoping.

Our last away FA Cup game against Boro was a 2-0 hammering. How the hell we didn't score more I'll never know. And there might have been a penalty or two not given.
But I'd rather it be Newport as I've never seen us play them.

I remember us beating them up there 1-0 benjani winner,it had to be the coldest day I can ever remember

Even if we get Boro a bogey team years ago we will still comfortably beat them

Years ago?

They knocked us out of the cup when we were top of the the league and they were in the division below just four years ago

And got a 92nd minute equaliser when we battered them all game just three years ago.

People are forgetting Boro knocked us out of this cup last time we met them in it.

Didn’t we knock them out in March 2017?

 

[Fiftyyearsandcounting]

No chance. And they shouldn't. Magic of the Cup. Welsh miners against the rich guys and Land of My Fathers echoing through the valleys and all that.

And no doubt they will dig up Max Boyce from somewhere

 

[Neville Kneville]

When you look at that draw, the winner of Chelsea/rags, plus Palace, Wolves & us, all have a good chance of at least the final if they get through.

We really have to make sure we get through that as it's such a good opportunity.

 

[kinkysdribble]

We've had some fucking good draws in cup competitions this year. There is absolutely no agenda.

the agenda is that the longer we stay in these insignificant cup competitions, the better it is for dipperpools premier league bid, just a thought. I love the cup still and if it was the only thing we won this season, that's still success

 

[East Level 2]

Didn’t we knock them out in March 2017?

Yes. Perhaps 2017 came before 2015.

 

[gjblues]

Always nip down the road and play at the Principality.

Good shout. E-mail them.

 

[Pell]

At least we won’t be fielding Boyata, Kolarov, Fernando and Navas!

Or playing a friendly in Abu Dhabi in midweek, and only getting back the night before the match!

 

[AliBobbyJ]

And no doubt they will dig up Max Boyce from somewhere

Fine, but even Max Bygraves won't help them win.

 

[Vienna_70]

That’s the end of the Cup run, then.

I can’t see Newport beating Bore-o in the replay, and our record against the Teessiders is atrocious.

 

[ninjamonkey]

Rather have a home draw in terms of making it easier and less demanding on our players, boro away under Pulis could be turned into a bit of a slog and going to newport on a less than ideal pitch isnt great but cant moan at that draw. Another one of the big 6 guaranteed to be going out, as long as we're professional we could only have to play 1/2 tough games to win another trophy

 

[squirtyflower]

Nope

Remember the snow on the M62 was horrendous, and walking over a dual carriage bridge near the ground frostbite set in.
