I agree. I hate Celtic too. Celtic and Stenny

Hamilton Alonso Schumacher Button Chelsea Arsenal Man Utd Man City

Stenny luck their way to a tie against Celtic. Horrible club. Arseholes!

People using the cold as an excuse. Fuckin hell! It was a pathetic crowd, and very hard to defend. I wonder how many who made the effort last night would manage to get it ticket if we got to Wembley. No doubt all the season ticket holders who couldnt be arsed to support their team last night would return? Most of the excuses are shit. It was a pathetic crowd for any 1st team game. We should accept it.

Fair enough some people can't make midweek games, but a 30'000 drop is ridiculous, FA Cup replay or not. Well done to the 15'000 to bothered tonight.

Terrible crowd tonight. Embarrassing.

Hope its not like the Leeds game in the summer where the club didnt open enough turnstyles an half the crowd of 16000 missed a load of the match.

He had a point at the start, but started to make a fool of himself 4 mins on. The journo then just rips him appart.

They seriously need to get someone to sort out their communication. The email yesterday was shocking. Even if their 7mil thing was correct, that email wasn't the place to mention it. It was just stuck in there as a dig for what seems like no reason. Infact, I don't know the purpose of the email. The questionaire was shocking. I would ave failed uni if I had produced something so shit. I would love to see this idea work, and I think some of the critisism has been unfair and petty, however that email was a joke. The actual meeting in Bamburgh I went to wasn't much better and they aren't anywhere near as professional as the Berwick Rangers Supporters Trust which is a worry. They really need to get some sensible, clever people involved if they arnt going to self distruct.

Play the first team. They will be needing some match fitness by now.

And this time, can he not just fuckin run the club and try and sell it in the background, like every other club does. Imagine how much of a disaster it would be if we had another summer like last one in limbo, but this time stepping up a level.

If we don't get in a goalscorer I can see both Forest and West Brom getting past us. We will lose too many points in shitty draws, just like the Derby and the second half of the Sheff Wed game. £2-3 million is nothing if we can get a goalscorer in, even if its just for this season. Worry about next season in the summer if we go up. But knowing this club, we will offer Harewood a 4 year deal at £30k a week or something. Another thing, I can't believe our scouting has been so limited to about 3 players. If we don't get Beckford, we go in for Harewood. FFS! Its like last January when we were paying Wise a million a year to discover unknown gems like Nolan and Taylor.

We need a goalscorer to keep us at the top. 2mil isn't too much to pay considering promotion is worth about 40mil or whatever. Its hardly even a gamble in my eyes, even if its only for 4 months.

We are practically related as mine is the 17th of September. So is mine!!! And Damon Hills. Anyway, looking forward to this. Love the cup.

Hows that? We have a chance if we beat Plymouth. Away draw against the best team in our division appart from us. As well as being boring, its a hard tie.

Shite draw.

What if Colo and Enrique got injured at home to Plymouth in the next round? It could happen, and it'd be a needless risk finding out. It'd be an utterly pointless waste of two of our most important players. Aye we can compete in two competitions but i'd rather be 100% healthy for the league, than 90%/10% healthy with the cup thrown in there as a needless distraction. We've hardly got a particularly fit squad anyway. I honestly see absolutely no gain from going for it in the cup, that's all i'm saying. Morale boost? Nah... we're top as it is and i'd like to keep it that way. And next year if we're in a relegation battle?

Teams with strength in depth always do well in the league, we dont have that. Oh wait.....

Its not just to do with pride. A good run lifts the place as well, and injuries are just as likely in the league. These games are played on free Saturdays. We will be in the same position next year if we're fighting relegation. We were in the same position last year. Do we never try unless we're in a safe midtable position?

Why don't we go and play in league 2 where we would never get beat then? How about moving to the SPL? We are Newcastle United, not fuckin Wigan. We should play competitions and attempt to win them. Even if we don't we should give it a good go. Id rather that than just existing like some of the pathetic clubs who's sole aim is to survive in the Prem.

Exactly

How so? We don't need the distraction, league is priority, we don't have the squad to cope with the injuries we'll obviously pick up. And next year will probably be exactly the same when we're battling relegation. You could make the excuse to play a weak team every season. Fuck giving up. We arent a nothing club like Bolton or Wigan.

Are you taking the piss? Snodgrass is decent, but League 1 is his level. I saw him play for Livingston a few years back. Was OK back then too.

How so?

Hoping for a mackems. Other than that someone shit so we can get a good cup run going.
