FA Cup QF Draw | Newcastle (H) | Sat 16 Mar 17:30

Another factor in kick off days and times will be the 6 Nations. No chance of a game on ITV on Saturday tea time, in my opinion. I reckon one game on Friday night or Sat 12.15ko, three games on the Sunday.

City will almost certainty be on the BBC, so they’d probably jump at the chance to try and shit on ITV, if they’ve got the rugby and go head to head.

Get past these and the semi, and get Liverpool in the final. Ruin Klopp’s season having already ruined it in the league.

We have a fantastic record against Newcastle at The Etihad.
Am I correct in thinking that they have only won once which was a League Cup game about 10 years ago ??

Since 2001 there has been 20 meetings at home, we have won 18, lost 1 (yes a league cup game in 2014) and drawn 1. Some big score lines as well, 8 meetings where we scored at least 4 with a couple of 5-0 in there.

My, ahem, beloved is set on booking a holiday to clash with the quarter final weekend (I know, I know. I should grow a pair etc). I'm unsure what my options are when it comes to transferring a cup ticket to a third party or if indeed it's possible at all! As a seasoncard holder and cup scheme member, I don't receive a ticket by email of course but have it loaded onto my digital card. Alternatively, I would make it available via the Ticket Exchange process but I don't think it extends to cup ties.
Any help would be appreciated.

No ticket exchange for cup ties.
No problem to transfer it to anyone in your friends and family list.

Do you need a new friend, asking for a friend?

Intresting to read their pre-draw, and post-draw thoughts. We really do put almighty fear into others. Evidently.

When do they decide what days/time for this?

Was Scotland v England not on at the same time as City v Bournemouth last Saturday.
Only thing we can take is that City will be a different day front the rags.

When do they decide what days/time for this?

I’d like to think it will be in the next couple of days due to the relatively short turnaround compared to other rounds of the cup. But you never know for sure with these things.

Possibly Ste if I understand you correctly. A mate who's on my Friends and Family list might have it but not if he decides to take his lad.
I'll DM you if it's available. Watch this space

Ireland v Scotland is teatime, England is 8pm.
Last time I looked all the teams left in the FA Cup were English so no reason to worry what other countries are up to sport wise.

If there is a football god, he will make this happen .. !!

 

[Gingers Dad]

Are we all ready for the biggest fa cup. Quarter finals ever between the two biggest clubs the world has ever seen.

I think its bigger than that.

"FA have already confirmed that Newcastle have drawn Man City and announced that as there are no replays if the tie is level after 90 minutes it will be decided on the day by determining how many Gallagher brothers support each club. More as we get it.. "

hahaha...

Cup scheme holders can transfer tickets to Friends & Family members - the Xfer window opens about a week before the game ( a shorter period than PL games )

How do you know we get Rags or Chelsea if we win ?.

You've misunderstood,my bad. I was wondering which other two teams likely to be left in, not even assuming we win v Barcodes. Hopefully we do.Whoever wins the Red Cheeks match will get either Chavs or Leicester/ Coventry. I will assume Chavs win because they get 99% home draws in every domestic cup competition.

I'm not making any sense to myself here! I am basically trying to say whatever happens in the semi draw we are likely to be flecked over. Especially if we are away in Europe, as has usually been the case near semi final weekend.

Love this comment ' All football is predetermined for storyline purposes'.

Hopefully this will be an early evening kick-off rather than an early afternoon one. If it is then that should make for a great atmosphere with nearly 8000 Newcastle fans bouncing round the place

The Bournemouth game was on Sky. The 6 Nations is on ITV and BBC. Can see us playing Friday night.

I have never been to the current Coventry stadium. I went to Highfield Road loads of times.

I lived there for six years in the late 1970s and early 1980s and was an elected member of Coventry City Council for the last three of those years. Back then the site of the current stadium was the Foleshill Gas Works.

I would like to go to a match at the Coventry stadium at some stage. Not likely to happen this year!

Definitely not happening this season, sadly.
