    Especially as Oldham finished top of the league. We finished 7th.. not too bad. The following season we were relegated to the 4th, where we remained until Mr Taylor saved us.

    Or perhaps not - Blackburn just scored to make it 2-2.

    Yes - Blackburn have got a bit more direct and Danny Graham into the game .

    Won't make anymore predictions though !

    Comedy scenes. Rafa saying how he doesn't need the cup. Back up centre back gets injured. Then best centre back pulls a hamstring and Rafa lets him wander around doing damage to himself for 10 mins before putting a midfielder at centre back! Think we have better chance of beating Newcastle to be honest.

    Was Craig Conway the guy that we were close to signing and Malky MacKay snaffled him for Cardiff?

    This game is hilarious. Benitez tried to throw it, then gets a couple of injuries and now into extra time. His face was a picture at the end.

    I see Matt Sadler is playing for Shrewsbury. He must be 40?

    Edit. He's 33:eek:

    From BBC live updates:

    Posted at 21:51
    Post update
    Blackburn 2-2 Newcastle

    Has Rafa Benitez broken a mirror recently? This is turning into a shocker for Newcastle.

    Ciaran Clark has gone off injured.

    He was replaced by Jamaal Lascelles who has gone off injured.

    Lascelles was replaced by Isaac Hayden who is now injured.

    That's before you take into account this is a replay they didn't want and has gone to extra time.

    Excellent. An offside goal in a competition that randomly has VAR for some games and not for others.

    Concentration is one of the hardest assets for a top level GK. Fatigue affects goalkeepers as much as it affects outfield players, and that's where it's failed him there.

    For the Newcaste GK, when Blackburn missed the 3rd a few minutes before, I'd like to point out his superb positoning as the stopped him hitting it across whilst also covering his near post. That's one of the difference between GK levels.

    In my own experience as a 5-a-side GK it's probably the most important asset, only second to reactions. (In my case, I compensate for less than stellar reactions with ancticipation.)

    Blackburn miss a sitter then Newcastle score an offside goal before getting their 4th.

    Case and point. Now the Blackburn GK has had action to do he's now notably sharper to shots.

    Chris Sutton seems to think every player who goes down has a head injury. What a weirdo.

    Well it had to happen. A THIRD game vs Newcastle. Maybe we’ll actually win this one?

    Let’s give Blackburn the credit they played well and although Renee’ only put out a makeshift 11 they were more than capable. So close yet so far for a trip to Ewood Park.

    Prices based on demand. I would think a single to Newcastle is about £3
