then again I quite like the geordies perhaps we could send him to N Korea .. they have a way of dealing with losers

Sounds like a easy game however we did struggle a bit with Shrewsbury

We could destroy Shrewsbury and Derby with our strongest team but the COC is for young players and benchwarmers.

Agreed, but it would be nice if we can win this cup, the European cup and the Premier league cup again

Bit harsh

Excellent work Newcastle. With City out, even more desperate than before in wanting us to win the League Cup.

As for the quarter finals draw, not the worst tie but could have been slightly better. Will be a tricky tie, just like the FA Cup game there last season, but a winnable one nonetheless.

Don't need a separate thread for the same topic. Have merged with this.

Another thing I've noticed is that since Jose's come back, we've been getting only away fixtures in the cup competitions.

In the league cup we had:

Last season: Swindon away, Arsenal away, Sunderland away. This season : Shrewsbury away, now Derby away

In the FA cup we had:

Last season: Derby away, Man City away

The only home games we've had under Jose have been Stoke in the Fa Cup last season and Bolton in the league cup this season.

So that's 7 away total and only 2 at home. That's weird.

Shame Liverpool still in. It won't an easy game against Derby, expected the same line up with yesterday, Ramires in.

That's nothing, I remember a team we drew last season or the season before (I can't remember who, maybe Boro) had something like 12 consecutive away draws before they were draw at home to us!

Will be tough, but should be easier than Shrewsbury,

[MichaelDance 552]

And we've got a month to prepare for it since it's now December 16th.

[Tomo 21,733]

It will be tough, McLaren is a very astute manager despite what the media say.

I want to win this competition.

Didn't know we are not playing any other games between now and then.

[BlueLion. 21,491]

We'll play a far stronger team. Remy, Ramires, Azpi, Matic and Willian will all probably start.

[MichaelDance 552]

Haha yeah but I mean I thought it would be sooner.
