    I suppose this is the reality of football on numerous fronts but I must admit I'm a bit disappointed that we aren't going for it. I'd rather go all out tonight and rest a few against Blackpool.

    Byrne’s back against a premier league front line.

    What can go wrong?

    Combined with the defensive unit we've somewhat unfortunately had to put out, this could be a hard watch.

    Yes, that was my thinking but we may be surprised.

    Centre half to cover Byrne and Kelly most likely

    Don't care who plays for us, as long as they all play 'balls out football'

    Only hope is that Newcastle want out of this competition and can't be arsed at all. Clutching at straws mind as they are the current holders and I'm sure they'll want to go again but who knows - maybe they want to clear the fixture congestion.

    Not even on the bench. Would be extremely harsh to leave him out so presume he's injured/unwell.

    Wow. Terrible line up. Byrne and Kelly against a PL attack. Wft are you thinking, Graham?

    this could be 4-0 or 5-0 now.

    Powell from the start too. Wow.

    Hope I am wrong but think we may concede 3-4 tonight with that starting line up.
