Scoot

Really like the look of this kid as well. Like has been said, wouldn't mind seeing him starting on Saturday.

Class! Pleased for him tonight.

Our luck will run out in the next round in terms of home draws. Liverpool away...

I know they had 10 men like but i doubt very much even with an extra man it would have made a massive difference to the score. Think of all those young kids at the match tonight for the first time as well, they'll have just fell in love with this football club. Love Rafa, Love NUFC!

Get innnnnnn!

49k. Wow!!!

Standard cup game tbh. Don't think it's been that bad. Full of families rather than lads who've been in the pub for a couple of hours. As for the game, well its so one sided its crazy. Hopefully we get another couple in the second half.

Both clubs give away thousands of tickets for nowt each game. Well a lot of them are not exactly for nowt but rather through an agreed partnership etc. Trying to say we give away as many free tickets as them man. Didn't someone say that Gipetto posted on here? He just said we give away 15k tickets every game Remember, they love making up lies about us. It's just what they do.

Quite happy with that lineup. HTL!

Totally agree with the last bit. It's not worth the risk. They're doing absolutely shite and we're flying. We don't need to risk losing to them to turn their season around.

This is usually the time when we put in an absolutely horrific performance and get beat 2-0.

Discourages stupid queues. People have had weeks to get tickets! With midweek games a lot of people have work commitments and don't know if they can make it until the day of the match, sometimes last minute. Understand why they've done it (for the reasons you've mentioned) but £15 would have been fairer rather than doubling the prices. Also should have allowed cash turnstiles in Leazes level 7 because that will be empty tonight as Preston only bringing 1,000. Still 45,000 is a remarkable show of support from the fans for what is a League cup 4th round tie between two 2nd division clubs and I think we're now showing Ashley what he could have had all those years ago if he'd ran the club properly. As a comparison, Sunderland got 13,000 charging the same prices in this competition a few weeks ago v Shrewsbury and when they played Man Utd in the Semis a couple of years ago they only managed 31,000 with 6k of those away fans. As for the team I expect Sels, Hanley, Mbemba Lazaar, Diame, Atsu, Hayden and Mitrovic to come in to the starting XI. This is what happens when they don't dish free tickets out. They only dish them out for league games so when they are in the cup it doesn't matter who they play, it tells by their crowds. Tin pot club.

Love the way we get the blame for it. Their total lack of self awareness once again saying how we hound our managers out. They're the worst cunts for it.

Jesus Christ man

Where'd you hear that from? That's fantastic.

The absolute clip of him man!

Make sure its got gravy on too.

Delighted this is on a foreign channel as there'll be a stream for it. Quarter final on the horizon hopefully.

this is whats funny about this season so far, they were so triumphant in the summer, they were going places , we were gone for good and they could see the holy grail of having bigger crowds. It just hasn't gone to plan at all has it?

Seems to have his head sorted this season so if we go up he'll be an important player next season.

Class news that.

That's what I thought.
