I've been waiting for a trip to SportsDirect@NewcastleArena.co.uk for ages , now the one month where times are tight it may happen


(although we have to get past Wrexham , where I'm reckoning they will do us on penalties - cup heroes etc..)

The shame is, Gus doesn't really care about the FA CUp and may see the Newcastle game as an annoyance where he would have to play the first team and risk them getting injured for the league.

But then again... why are we trying to get promoted (money aside!) but to play teams like this, and here's an opportunity. I really hope we do get through, but I am worried that Gus would actually be happy for us to lose against Wrexham.

The one and only time I have seen Newcastle play was at Portsmouth a few years ago. I sat in the away end with the toon and thought the fans were amazing! Micheal Owen and obifimi martins got the goals for an away win, tony Adams was in charge of Pompey. Will always remember everyone stuffed in the toilets at half time for a ciggie and the Pompey stewards barging in and removing the oldest, most frail fan and ejecting him from the stadium! Hope we beat Wrexham as it will be a cracking atmosphere!

For a manager who doesn't care about the FA cup (he does btw according his interview during the week) he got us through to the 4th round in his first few months and the 5th round last season. A lot further than other recent managers.

I still think we will send the development squad to Wrexham.

Give me 3 points on saturday over a cup game against Newcastle anyday

So if he cares about the FA Cup, why does he take off two first team players and replace with Development Squad, just after Wrexham have equalised. I have got the impression in both the last two seasons that we got through by accident. Last season the half and half team resulted in a replay at Woking, and was the start of a bad run. He may say he cares in interviews, but actions speak louder than words.

I know the feeling ! one of the draws I have always wanted but if we get through and earn a trip up north I will be in Thailand ! Got to get through Wrexham 1st and I'm not confident that's for sure
