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

[Trojan1962]

Stick 10 on them , good and proper. Ho yeah WWYWYWS. Ho sorry you still are ......

Someone needs to remind them that we’re not playing them in the prem league or Champs league the fucking morons

 

[chesterbells]

Minor point, but is it guaranteed to be shown live on BBC Wales as well as BTSport?

 

[The Stockport Iniesta]

and so it begins

Lmao, you can set your watch by these fuckers.

Totally not looking forward to this game. I fear another Halifax on the horizon with that pitch.

 

[The Stockport Iniesta]

I wish people would stop moaning about the pitch 11 days before the game! It's the Cup, you deal with it.

Exactly, Newport won't have much money to spend on their pitch. It's a cup tie, we adapt.

 

[Trojan1962]

I’m glad Boro are out I couldn’t stand Pullis going on about City’s money when we knocked them out, like he always does when we beat a team managed by him

Phew!

Dodged Boro in both cups this season with lower division sides beating them.

Behave yourself

Yeh it's not like we have this, Schalke, a League Cup Final and West Ham within 11 days.
I'm sorry any concerns hinder your love of the FA Cup! It's an absolute mess of a pitch and injuries can be picked up very easily on it.

Newport seem to manage ok

We employ the same tactic we used throughout January with great effect...we rotate through 20 odd players.

There is a lot at stake for MCFC. We're basically where we were last season, and we never thought we'd have a crack at this, but here we are 12 months later and it's all on again.

Don't need to remind anyone that it was the FA Cup 5th Round where we lost at Wigan.

We need to field a strong side, both technically and physically.

Newport seem to manage ok

Maybe because they are used to playing on a Farmers field?

Yes the pitch resembles Halifax but we do have a marginally better squad now, as great a player as Bobby Shinton was he'd struggle to get on our bench nowadays...

Didn’t think they had enough for a forum a twosome at a push

Can’t see that happening I just don’t want any injuries to our players. I hope the ref whoever it is clamps down on bad tackles early on

Loads of our players grew up playing on fields with about three blades of grass in South America

Let’s stop with the excuses, reminds me of the Shrewsbury and Halifax draws :) Get the job done and move on

 

[Deleted member 81382]

I'd be playing the likes of Muric, Bolton, Sandler, Garcia, Zinchenko, Delph, Foden etc, in this one. It's not worth risking first team players on that pitch imo.

True but not boggy lol

 

[mcfcmatt]

How many tickets will we get?

Didn't see 1 bad tackle tonight, Newport were a credit.
