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

[Alan Harper's Tash]

Lol, maybe. It could go the other way of course; liverpool in the semi either side of a tie against Real Madrid. What a week that would be … ;-)

It’ll be Southampton. :-)

Someone posted a while back after we beat spurs and drew Luton that we beat those 2 on the way to winning it in 1969 well we also played Newcastle as well ohhh spooky..

I was at the Spurs quarter final ( Lee, we won 1-0 ) I was also at the Newcastle replay, a 4-0 win I think, Young scored twice. Blackburn we beat as well, who've just been knocked out by Newcastle.

Utd v liverpool can't be Saturday as Liverpool play Thursday. Same for Brighton if they get through, assuming there is 2 games each day if Brighton get through we should be on the Saturday.

last year they split the quarter finals as:

saturday
- 5:45

sunday
- 12:00
- 14:15
- 16:30

they did the same the previous year with a 1:3 split over the saturday & sunday.

with the rags playing in europe on the thursday they can’t be the saturday, i’d put good money on us being the saturday evening kick off.

Have you seen Liverpools line up for tonite, I’d say Southampton have a great chance.

I meant if Liverpool play United. I think United will get beat tonight. The Scousers will beat Southampton and then play Forest away with a pretty much full strength team. Hopefully Southampton can beat Liverpool tonight, but I doubt it.

Leicester in the final then?

 

[Blue Maverick]

Early on 16th please don’t do an 8pm I’m out that night

Good draw. We'll destroy Newcastle and Scum or Dippers going out is fine by me.

The game is almost 3 weeks away. They will have a few 1st team players back from injury by then. It won’t be as easy as many of you think it will be. Plus they will have 6000 pissed up Geordies chering them on from SSL3.

Just had a quick check and there’s only Targett and Botman expected to be back by mid March. The rest are long term

Just seen it. Southampton won’t have a better chance at beating Liverpool, even at Anfield.

Kelleher; Gomez, Quansah, Van Dijk, Tsimikas; Bradley, Clark, McConnell; Elliott, Gakpo, Koumas

No their form has dropped off a cliff. They even got beat at home by Millwall at the weekend.

 

[Blu3m00n91]

When will ticket details be released? I’ll need 3 for this

They’ve lost their last 2. Lost 3 out of their last 5. Bugger! What a great chance to knock the Scousers out and they end up with an out of form Southampton.

 

[Rodrigoooooooo]

We can't play home on the same day rags do so we should be playing on Saturday

 

[TonyColemansbagofapples]

Not even close!

And I’m happy to be wrong

Southampton made 8 changes apparently. Rolled over already for them.

 

[M Gaudino]

Not even close!

its almost like predictions are a complete waste of time since the 40,000 permutations are completely and equally random

 

[eyalluvitt]

Got a chance of an easier semi too should we get through.

No semi is easy at my age

 

[Gone for a Burton]

More than happy with that. Should be a great atmosphere as the Geordies will turn up in numbers.

Insufferable deluded small time,small town jonnies.

Half the fat feckers will be back at Scotch Corner on 75 minutes.

I’ve got a feeling for the out of town imposters in another final.

DELICIOUS !!

 

[Tolmie scores]

I know it was said in jest.

They would have hoped for an easier draw.

However we have a great home record v them and if we are on it then I would be disappointed if we didn’t go through.

Can anyone remember how many times that Blackburn game was postponed because of the weather, it was more than a few.

Blackburn fans with motorbike chains were more than a bit tasty that night haha
