With that lot having 4 matches in 10 days or whatever it is I'm hoping our general fitness levels might be an advantage later in the game if required.

I hope that too. Hopefully this can be the time it actually makes a difference. It always feels like when we have stacked games it matters when the opposition does they look like they are as fresh as a daisy!

Fair play, but knowing you trolling will be in order if you lot win, you won’t be able to resist :lol:

 

Nah I know where to draw the line. :lol:  Defeat in the league is frustrating, but a cup final is something different entirely. Emotions are going to be through the roof.

 

Will probably just avoid the place completely win, lose or draw on Sunday. I don't think any good comes from me posting regardless of the result. :lol:

 

Back to the grind on Monday.

Those saying we have no chance need a word with themselves. We’re not favourites but we’ve been great this season and definitely have a good chance of winning.

It will be tough, we have a chance because our manager has created a fantastic culture but despite what Man United fans say they have had huge investment over the last 3 decades so we have a lot of work to do to compete in all areas.

We are the hardest team to beat in the entire league, have lost by 2 goals once all season and that was with 10 men, don't get why anyone thinks we have no chance. Man United obviously have better players and a better team but we will make it so hard for them to win, it's going to be so tight and whoever wins it will likely be by one goal, I can actually see it going all the way to penalties.

I think it’s pre game nerves plus a dip in our form giving people the jitters. Of course we have a chance this should go without saying.

14 years of Ashley has drummed it in to us. It’s hard to change that mentality overnight.

 

Thankfully Eddie and the squad aren’t made of the brittle stuff that we all are.

The nee chance doom mongers man, give it a rest. Can you imagine what the local lads have been saying to their team mates this week, they'll be gods if they pull this off. Some folk choosing to ignore the damage we are capable of inflicting on teams when we turn it on, just because we have been misfiring in front of goal recently, plenty of chances still being created. If we turn up I'm expecting quite a thrilling encounter, HTL

Were going to need a massive upset like


Na sorry don't agree with that, we went to Man U with basically the same team (Please don't start picking holes in that) should of beaten them, aye ok they have picked up a bit but Howe will have a plan, books have got Man U 8/13 & Newcastle 6/4 to lift the trophy, theres tiny %ages in that, the game is a lot more even than many of Newcastle fans are allowing themselves to believe, were at least as good as Man U over 90 mins at a neutral ground & prob better when you compare our 1st half season form.

Personally I think were going to surprise them & IMO were going to be a lot more committed to challenges, hungrier & will compete harder than them, we will beat these fuckers im convinced.

Stop being so tactful please.  You're making it hard to dislike you and I really need to dislike man u fans at the moment.

I appreciate the point but we’ve been really really good for more than a year [emoji38].

Lost two games all season and all of a sudden we’ve got no chance. Insane.

Were at least as good as them, the nearer the game comes its natural for nerves to show but honestly its a coin flip this game & I think were hungrier than a lot realise.

We win this 

Aye that’s another big factor. We want this massively, not saying they don’t but it’s about the size of the fight in the dog etc.
