I get people not wanting to get too excited as it hurts so much if we fall short but we've gotta all be right up for this, be positive, be hopeful, we've waited so long for this moment. We are 5/4 to lift the cup, 7/5 best price in places. 7 of the 8 results on Saturday in the Premier League were a bigger price. Do we have a good chance to win the thing on Sunday... TOO FUCKING RIGHT WE DO!

ONE TIME NEWCASTLE, ONE FUCKING TIME!

 

 

 

 

Give me evens Man U and I'm all over it .

TalkSport reporting that Joelinton has a knock but Howe is “hopeful” he’ll be OK for the final. 

 

That's a slight bit of creative journalism I think. The exact quote is "We hope he's OK. He wanted to carry on - I wanted to protect him for the games ahead. We hope it's not serious"

Shout out to this incredible opening gambit from The Chronicle

 

'Newcastle United will be without the suspended Nick Pope for the Carabao Cup final but the Magpies know they can ensure Loris Karius has little to do by simply protecting his goal'

Have woken up this morning in far more relaxed mindset. I’ll be nervous around match time for excitement but fuck it man. 
 

It’s up to our players and Howe to keep the game in front of Lorius and get on with it. Id be more worried if Joelinton or Botman or Trippier couldn’t play. I assume our main 9-10 players are fit and willock will play or be on bench. It’s one hit. Time to do it. We have proven earlier this season we have been able to go toe to toe with the best. We used to fear nobody. We know Man United’s threats. There’s no excuse for missing those. We will have a plan and we will execute. 
 

Come on Newcastle!

Will this be the first time you've played at the new Wembley? It is, isn't it?

Not including games against Spurs, yes.

However fellow Tyneside teams have done well at the new Wembley, Whitley Bay, North Shields, and Hebburn all winning cup finals there.

Rashford has scored 16 from an xg of 8.5 or something, apparently. Crazy compared to how poor he looked last year. I remember when they came up here - apart from one shot, he was misplacing simple passes etc. 

 

He still does this. :lol: He's just not dragging everything wide now. As his confidence grows with the goalscoring though that side of his game is starting to improve as well.

Anything near reputable reselling any tickets for this?

 

Have a friend who is willing to pay pretty reasonable coin but it's an obvious minefield.


Club Wembley have said they’re cancelling any tickets sold on resale sites. Not sure how they’ll be able to do that but there’s always a risk.

 

The only way to guarantee a ticket is to take out the 3 year club Wembley membership which will set you back about £7.5k in total. Gets you all england games, Fa Cup semis and final, carabao cup final and charity shield. You can sell any tickets you can’t use on their portal but it’s obviously a risk you may be stuck with tickets you don’t want.

Yeah not sure she's willing to drop the amount for CW as unlikely she would make any of the other events, nor want too.

 

Imagine it's the same for a lot.
