Really hope we win on Sunday but in a perfect world it will be a thrilling high scoring draw and the we beat them in the replay.Never been St James Park,although we may get the chance next season in the Premiership...hopefully.
Anyone got any info on a possible replay ie,allocation and ticket price?

All I know is it is on the Wednesday (16th) at 7.45
Ticket news will be in the programme on Sunday. In the FA Cup we get 10% of the allocation so that means 5,500 me thinks!

10% 15% Does it matter? We'd take 1500 (max) to St James Park on a Wed night in the middle of January! As mush as I'd love the replay it may perhaps be best avoided. The 1995 game and the subject of "revenge" has been on the lips of most of the Toon fans Ive spoken to, much, much more than the game being a potential banana skin or Big Sam's last game. They'd LOVE a replay, for all the wrong reasons! This is a big city and people have long memories. If we do get a replay I'd urge any Stokies travelling to use official transport or leave scarfs/colours at home. Oh and avoid The Adelphi pub .... link attached ! www.theburglarsdog.co.uk/review.html?2On a selfish note I'd love a replay. Having lived here since 1988 I was unfortunate enough to watch them relegate us in 1990 ! Better still I'd love a three nowt win and a Fuller hat-trick ! |

We overweight Stokies might need oxygen after reaching the away stand at St James Park.

your not wrong
Be warned though that it is a climb of 14 flights of stairs up to the away section and that you are situated quite far away from the pitch. So if you are scared of heights or have poor eye sight then this may not be for you

Speaking to alot of Derby fans that went the other week alot of them were absolutely bolloxed when they reached the summit of the away end so the larger stokies may need to use the lift.

ah it aint that bad! on the brightside it's covered from that horrible north east wind. Not 2 be selfish i'd love a replay seeing as i can't afford to get to Stoke and St James is a 2 min walk away but then again i'd love to hammer them while sitting in a pub full of me Geordie mates!

I've had a look on the NUFC forum and it seems like they are preparing for fun and games....old boys coming out of retirement, squaddies coming home on leave. Let's hope that the scenes from 1995 are not on BBC for the worldwide audience to witness |
