We done them last year , why cant we do it again?
Not the best draw we could have had (actually its the worst) but we are playing decent football again , we may have Owen back and we have a run of games between now and then that with a little luck and some hard graft we can get results from them all.

Birmingham seem to have some sort hoodoo over liverpool this season, we just couldn't seem to beat them. I just have a bad feeling the game could go to a replay adding more fixtures to a already marathon season.

whoever wins the chelsea newcastle tie will go on and win the cup...

no offense to anyone else.. but i thinks it just made that way

LoadsaMoney · 20 Feb 2006 at 16:37

Well theres a turn up for the books, we got an easy one, Birmingham.

I was expecting Chelsea.

Newcastle

time for revenge from last year!!

I'll let you pick your odds for Newcastle to win 1-0 and Owen to score the goal in the 76th minute.

If it's just Owen to score in a 1-0 victory then the combined odds would probably be around 25-1 ish.

I'm gutted we got chelsea I wanted an easy ride as its shearers last season but it looks like shearer will have to own chelsea again like he does so well

lemonkettaz · 20 Feb 2006 at 17:24

good odds i think... providing he is back in the squad by then, should be though.

gotta be the 76th minute though, anything else would be a let down

TrueBlue · 20 Feb 2006 at 18:04

really gonna depend on what side Jose selects, the side in the first half yesterday will get walked on, not because of lack of talent but of match sharpness, a big problem when you have such a large quality squad. Hopefully the special one will realise that its the QF of a big cup and the treble will still be on, meaning he will put out a fairly strong side with JT and Lamps etc.

lemonkettaz · 20 Feb 2006 at 18:10

i think he will be putting the "first" team out for you lot.

he will still remember we knocked you out last year, so i dont think he will take any chances... plus chelsea also want the fa cup as much as anyone this year, probably at the fact jose would love to do a treble... whether you get past barca in the meantime that is.

but with owen hopefully back, we will have our first team at last.

hopefully emre parker owen dyer and shearer will be playing on the day, will be a good match.

if owen is playing hell be desperate to bang in the goals to still prove his worth before the world cup having been out for a while... so it looks like its going to be a cracker

newcastle will win obviously

Irish_Tom · 20 Feb 2006 at 18:59

I'm not being defeatist or anything and I'm not suggesting that we don't have a chance. We just never seem to get the easy ride that some other clubs get.

news bulletin about the fa cup just said "jose's lot wont have it easy, they face newcastle"

exactly... come on newcastle!

Weebull · 20 Feb 2006 at 19:09

I suppose on the plus side, if Newcastle put Chelsea out, it's a straight romp to winning the cup from there.

newcaslte liverpool final

what a game

PinkFloyd · 20 Feb 2006 at 19:33

Newcastle vs Liverpool would be a far better game than Liverpool vs Chelsea would be yet another couple of hours of avoiding attacking.....
Also the fact that chelsea wouldnt be in the final is nice. They can have the premiership instead, they don't need more

lemonkettaz · 20 Feb 2006 at 19:35

newcastle liverpool final would be one of the best atmospheres in a final for years

EasyG · 20 Feb 2006 at 20:43

newcastle vs boro final would be best, Tyne - Tees clash!

Nice to see only Premiership sides in the quarterfinals for a change, it means I won't have to suffer the BBC being patronising and bigging up the "underdog" lower league sides.

lol... it makes me cringe sometimes, if i was part of the "underdog" lower league team id just tell them to shut up, they talk about them as if they were kids or something. like a school team.

id want more respect being a manager or player or supporter of a lower league team
