*Is not hopeful if it goes to pens*

Crazy night's football once again.

Lovenkrands....... Scores!

We've got a pen! Pull on the shirt!

Aye... well..... own fault for giving daft freekicks away. Took a deflection off the wall.

CABAYE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Guthrie makes it 2-1 with a raker. Assist from Cabaye.

Obertan on for Marveuax *Shakes head at that one*

Oh well - League Cup run ends here as usual, then lads. Night all!

We've had a great shout for a pen turned down, Blackburn go straight up the other end and get one.

Krul saves from Yakubu. Half Time. And to think I wanted to head down to watch this tonight! Feel sorry for the lads that have - long way to go to see a nothing first half.

Another rocket up the arse at HT here, I feel. Fringe players not taking their chance tonight so far.

Hoillet causing all the trouble. Seems that Blackburn are more up for this than we are.

It's not Mick Lowes you doylem. It's Matthew Raisbeck standing in, as Lowesy is ill. Er... Misread. Apologies.

Support sounds tremendous.

Ba hits the post!

Great start.

That will do.

Aye.

Maybes Billy Hills have had some news on the quiet about our line-up. Who knows? Still think tonight will be a tough game - Blackburn have something to prove, despite what's happening in the stands.

My sister works for William Hill and she's just told me that Newcastle's odds for tonight have significantly shortened this pm. Make of that what you will.

But not your son? Great punishment for not finishing his greens. "That's it - I'm giving your Juve ticket to that Milhouse kid from next door! Don't have a son - got a 3 year old daughter! At the time, I used to take Ryan to all of our European home games. Was a good experience for him. Think his first game was to see us play CSKA Sofia when he was 9.

He wasn't the only one though!

Was a terrific night. Took my friends son along with me (he was 12 at the time)

Because of the Miners' Strike of 84/85, Thatcher had built her own private army and will have protected them at the expense of the truth. She is one evil rotten cunt of a woman.
