Newcastle United (H) - Sat 16th March, 17:30 | FA Cup | Pre-Match Thread

[Big Joe Corrigan]

Want to beat the Barcodes because i want another go at the Dippers at Wembley , we f*cked up at Klanfield and missed out chance to lay a ghost , but playing these c*nts at Etihad South will be right up our street and i think we would tear them to pieces.

I’ve still not forgotten the last time we played them there.

 

[SWPISHOME]

I really fancy us on Saturday, Really looking forward to the game, I love FA Cup ties at home.

Newcastle have been a shadow of the team they have been lasy season, I know they've had a lot of injuries along with trying to juggle Champions League football on top of the Premier League they've found it really difficult.

They have a fair few out for Saturday also, Joelinton is a massive loss for them they are really struggling in midfield without him.

Will Clare Balding be available for them, how bad did his injury look last night?

He looked in agony when then physio tried bending his leg. I don’t think he’ll play for a while. Ligament injury I would guess.

Not sure.
Still at Crufts

 

[Damanino]

they deffo missing 4 of their best 11. Pope, Trippier, Tonali, Joelinton. plus Gordon too imo.

we need to overload midfield big time let them run round like crazy and never get the ball off of us.

 

[St.Pauli support]

Hooper.
Will allow wrestling like he did vs spurs H (3-3)...

The problem we always seem to have in the semi final is that we are usually playing away in the 2nd leg of the CL qtrs a few days before it

I remember last time we played Liverpool they were able to rest their first eleven due to having a big lead in their euro tie.

Last year we got lucky getting Sheffield United if I recollect correctly
