Quote wrencat1873="wrencat1873"Well, we're through to the knockout stages of the comp.
However, today was a huge mis match and there's no fun in watching any side get battered.
Credit to Newcastle for keeping going and there was certainly no lack of effort, just a difference in quality.
I hope that Newcastle can keep going and hopefully be competitive in their league but, it's going to be a tough season for them.
If we can get over the top of Barrow, [uit's a trip to Odsal for a place in the fina[/ul.'"
I Wouldn't be that surprised to see Oldham turn them over tbh, they've looked good so far and have a decent Championship standard side together. I bet it'll be a close battle between those 2 for the semi-place.
Sean Long's got them playing well and they've got some good quality players in that side with lots of SL experience, from Kopczak to Wildie, Jordan Turner, Danny Craven,Jamie Ellis, Joe Wardle, Elijah Taylor etc. I was surprised when I read the side the other day how decent it is, especially as they're playing in League One. Which they should walk.
I think the bookies have them down behind us as 2nd favs for the Cup. So we'll see.
