How successful will the Toon be this season?

[Guest nufc_geordie]

How many trophies do you think we will win this year? After a far too long baron spell we have picked up one already and IMO the league Cup and UEFA Cups are winnable providing we turn over Chelsea tonight.

 

I will go with Intertoto and League Cup, but reckon we will go close in the UEFA as well.

[Northern Monkey]

Nothing. The Intertoto clearly doesn't count, does it.

[AyeDubbleYoo]

I think most of us would be amazed if we won any silverware, I'd nearly die of shock....

[Yorkie]

If we beat Chelsea, i'll be getting excited because i think we've got a chance over anyone left in the competition over two legs...

 

But i still can't see us winning it.

[buzza]

IMHO: NOT VERY!

[Guest shearer_united]

If we win Chelsea tonight, who are we going to play next ?

[STM]

Fancy us for the UEFA like. The only tricky side is Spurs for me.

 

I always said that the first season without shearer would be the one where we will win something, i'll stick by that.

There will be another draw for the Semi-Finals.

Liverpool/Arsenal or Spurs/Southend or Wycombe.

Are the semis played at neutral grounds in the league? If they are not then i feel we would get knocked out playing Arsenal, Liverpool or Spurs at their grounds. Thats only if we beat Chelsea, which i doubt we will.

They're played over two legs, home and away.

[Guest Dan]

we won't win anything, as usual

[Syrette]

Would love us to win the double and get the UEFA but I don't think it will happen this season.

 

We'll get to the semis again and then get knocked out by the eventual winners.

 

Still, at least we won the Intertoto...

I won't bother making any predictions but the UEFA Cup still represents our best hope.

 

To win the Carling Cup we will almost certainly have to beat two top class teams of proven Champions League standard, starting tonight. We are one of the most experienced teams in Europe left in the UEFA Cup and I still see that as our best hope.

[Guest Imperio]

UEFA Cup is a possibility, any stumbling block would be Tottenham.

 

FA Cup could be possible but it depends, we could do with a few upsets like Liverpool/Arsenal/Chelsea/Man United being knocked out by lower league sides.

[Superior Acuña]

UEFA Cup is a possibility, any stumbling block would be Tottenham.

 

 

dont forget werder bremen

[Yorkie]

UEFA Cup is a possibility, any stumbling block would be Tottenham. 

 

:roll:

 

Not to mention Benfica, Werder Bremen, Sevilla, Espanyol, Ajax, CSKA.

 

I can see Spurs doing well, but they're far from our toughest hurdle in this competition.

[The Bonk]

dont forget werder bremen

 

Which, imo, are a better side than Spurs and us.  They're unfortunate not to still be playing in the CL. 

[Dr. Nguyen Van Falk]

I'll vote after tonight.
