FA cup replay - Blackburn v NUFC

[Toondes]

Newcastle's FA Cup Third Round replay against Tony Mowbray's Championship side is at Ewood Park tonight (Tuesday) at 7.45pm.

The tie is live on BT Sport and a result must be achieved on the night, via extra time followed by a penalty shootout if necessary.

There will be no VAR coverage of this game.

NUFC fans can buy tickets for the Darwen End from the adjacent ticket windows until kickoff on Tuesday but at a cost of £20 adults, £10 concessions and £4 U18s.

NUFC: Ki Sungyueng and Yoshinori Muto are at the Asian Cup, Paul Dummett, Mo Diame, Karl Darlow and Jonjo Shelvey remain out and Kenedy is doubtful.

Freddie Woodman and Jamie Sterry are set to return to the starting lineup after playing in the first tie, with Nathan Harker again providing goalkeeper cover.

Callum Roberts is in the squad for Tuesday, the 21 year -old attacker scoring 12 times in reserve league and cup games so far this season.

In possession of squad number 37, Tyneside-born Roberts made his competitive senior debut for United back in January 2015, coming off the bench for the closing 11 minutes of an FA Cup loss at Leicester.

Of the 18 players selected that day by interim coach John Carver, only Paul Dummett and Freddy Woodman remain at the club. Adam Armstrong also played for Newcastle that day - now a Blackburn player.

Get Netflix they said. It's great they said.

So I took the free 30 day trial.

Now I haven't got a chance in hell of watching football on BT Sports.

Good idea. Might try that myself.

I didn't realise we were on BT, hope they bring Rio back.

[Crouching Shola Hidden Talent]

On the way to the game now. Any news on the ticket sales? I'm not expecting it to be the most raucous atmosphere I have to be honest.

[Somebodys pinched my sombrero]

Is the deludedfannymagnet going to put his stream on, I wonder.

His last two (hesgoal?) have bean crackers!

[Colly]

Flat back five against a Championship team.

[vrabbit]

nevermind apparently Kenedy is injured

A legendary defeat, a VONC, and an early goal

[Colly]

That goal went in almost exactly at the same time as Corbyn tabling his vote of no confidence. Monumental.

My two screen setup is cool...
