Rovers at the Toon FA Cup 3rd Round: Saturday 5th January 2019 - 5.30pm


Recommended Posts

Going down for my ticket in the morning. Still can't imagine this is much of a priority for Newcastle and really really hope we win this one after the way the first game went.

N.B. It clearly states on the website that tickets bought after 5 p.m. are £20 before anyone starts moaning about it.

Big opportunity for Rovers tomorrow as we welcome Premier League Newcastle United. Rovers seemed to have kicked on from our dogged festive schedule. Should be able to play with our pressure and freedom as Rafa and the Toon will be under the microscope. Hoping we can kick on from Saturday and give the Rovers fans something to be happy about. Match build up and more,

Today could be an historic day for our country.

(There's a lot going on in parliament as well!) :D

I’m far more optimistic about the football.

I’m putting my jinx on it - we are going to put on a bit of a show for the cameras and run out as comfortable winners.

 

(-edit- the Rovers, not the UK)

Really looking forward to tonight.

Hope we put out our best team and progress.

I think the crowd will be decent too, I expect anywhere from 15-20k

Well someone posted earlier in this thread yesterday that we’d sold 8000 and them 2000 as of yesterday, so I doubt we’ll get too 15-20k. Probably be around 11-12k on.

If Mulgrew is still out I'd be happy with

 

                      Raya

Nyambe Lenihan Rodwell Bell

               Evans Travis

         Reed Dack Armstrong

                   Nuttall

 

In an ideal world, drop Evans, Reed to CM and Benno on the right.

Graham to come on in the last 20 mins to shore up the 3-0

Think Evans and Mulgrew won't be risked. I'd go

                                Raya

Nyambe      Lenihan       Rodwell         Bell

Bennett       Reed            Travis         Armstrong

                             Dack

                            Graham

Subs: Leutwiler, Grayson, Smallwood, Rothwell, Butterworth, Brereton, Nuttall.

Wouldn't be against having Smallwood in somewhere, given he's had the last few weeks off, but I'd be more than happy with that.

Feeling positive about tonight, think we’ll win it! 

Travis to get a couple of early crunchers in and they won’t fancy it 

Tempted to get a ticket but will be half time at the earliest I could get there, may be extra time though...

I think Tony will bring him straight back in as he's fresh and he loves him. That would shunt Reed back out to the wing.

I'd love to see Reed and Travis play together in centre mid.
