Guest reefatoon Posted February 28, 2024 Share Posted February 28, 2024 Get in! a guaranteed loss incoming, can’t wait for the 90 minute mark so I can read all about how much Eddie got it all wrong, had no plan b and should probably get the bullet, especially after leaving Hall on the bench again.

geordiesteve710 Posted February 28, 2024 Share Posted February 28, 2024 FA have already confirmed that Newcastle have drawn Man City and announced that as there are no replays if the tie is level after 90 minutes it will be decided on the day by determining how many Gallagher brothers support each club. More as we get it. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
matta Posted February 28, 2024 Share Posted February 28, 2024 Great run with draws. Holy shit. Hopefully we gather some momentum now, and crush them Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lush Vlad Posted February 28, 2024 Share Posted February 28, 2024 Jokingly said to a mate last night. Going out would have been a blessing. To avoid the inevitable City or Liverpool away in the quarters. FFS Not sure a team has ever had worse luck with cup draws. Hopefully we get all the luck next season, instead. That could be 5-6, easily, the way we’re playing. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

NE27 Posted February 28, 2024 Share Posted February 28, 2024 I wonder if we are really unlucky with draws, or in recent history we've exited them at near the first opportunity so actually going deep into cup competitions eventually just throws up big teams to our amazement Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pilko Posted February 28, 2024 Share Posted February 28, 2024 4 games against City in one season FFS. Can only assume if we weren't shafted out of CL knockout qualification we'd have had a two-legged tie against them to endure so we could round off the half dozen.

gbandit Posted February 28, 2024 Share Posted February 28, 2024 I’m trying to think of a scenario where we can win this game and the only possibility is they get an early red card. Whatever side they put out will be class, they’re at home and their confidence is building. Haaland’s just scored five and we have the worst chances against us conceded by a massive margin in the league in 2024. So fucking gutted about this draw Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Geordie_once_removed Posted February 28, 2024 Share Posted February 28, 2024 Is there not a 1 in 64 chance of drawing 6 cup games away from home in a row? (Scum United, Chelsea, Sunderland, Fulham, Blackburn and now City). I'm a big believer that your luck evens out over a season. But this season is really testing that faith!

Ankles Bennett Posted February 28, 2024 Share Posted February 28, 2024 A bit off piste but heard a damning stat the other day that pointed out that since the inception of the EPL only 7 teams have won the EPL title. I imagine it's only Leicester from outside the top six to have won once. All the other titles have then been shared between the top 6. Talk about a monopoly!!!

Chris_R Posted February 28, 2024 Share Posted February 28, 2024 Odds of 6 away games from 7 draws is 5.47%, I think? So the kind of run you'd expect once every 18.3 years, assuming you had this many draws each year. So it's unlucky, but not quite "Oh my god it must be rigged!!" territory quite yet. It's shit though. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
