I meant tactically but it's always up to the players to perform.

What better example than our previous match on Tyneside.

no prob as long as we start with Mikel its in the bag ,,,might not even need the other 10 to show up

FA cup 3rd round draw tomorrow

Would absolutely wet myself laughing if we got Kidderminster. Reality will probably be same old boring home game against Derby or Ipswich

As Harry mentioned above, the FA Cup 3rd round draw will take place tomorrow at 4pm UK time.

We have been drawn to face Derby County at Pride Park in the FA Cup 3rd Round. Tie to be played on 4th/5th January.

Genuinely had a massive feeling we'd get Derby. Cracking draw.

Thank F*CK for that.. can play some fringe players mixed with starters and get a result

[Thendo 1,088]

Arsenal-Spurs , United-Swansea...Really can't complain

[zolayes 14,489]

started to think we were out of the cup ,,but we got Derby ,,,heard them win the first FA final after the war.. Beat Charlton after extra time

[BleedsBlue 1,549]

The draw looks favourable and with the squad depth that we have at the moment,I can see us winning it this year.

Not a bad draw though after the way our first round draw last season against Brentford went...looked easy..we made it hard!No crazy moments be nice lol

6-1. Lampard scored 4 of it.

And we were under Avram Grant then. Scary...

or derby were woeful back then

Derby are doing well in the Championship and McLaren isn't the joke of a manager that the media like to portray him as, so this is a massive potential banana skin. We're very beatable right now and I wouldn't be surprised if Derby got the draw at the very least.

90% sure this will be on Monday evening

Forest got West Ham at home in the cup, so the two games already have to be different days. With WHU being in town they'll all be out Saturday evening as will a lot of Chelsea and Nottingham will be the choice of the night out. The only logical option is to move our game to Monday night for BT Sport under police recommendation, as our game will draw more of an audience than the Forest game.
