Hopefully they can get a win and stop conceding late goals!

Wonder if the game will go ahead?

The weather is horrendous, it is here in Sunderland

Rain,hail,thunder and lightening

Gatesheads pitch is notoriously bad, can't see it going ahead myself...

In other news, Darlington were due to play Sunderland in a friendly tonight, which has now been called off

I don't really follow Gateshead but i do want them to go far, i like to see all the lower league teams go far in cups.

Good pointless friendly haha

Not for us it ain't, would have brought some much needed money, plus it would have served to give Sunderlands non-international players a run out after nearly a fortnight off

As for Gateshead, I'm not that fussed about them, but I do wish them all the best, and hope they reach the Football League eventually, hopefully we won't be trailing too far behind

Gateshead's match is OFF. Don't know when it'll be rearranged

(20 Nov 2013, 7:23 pm)Adam wrote Gateshead's match is OFF. Don't know when it'll be rearranged

No surprise there to be honest, would imagine it will be next week, isn't the Second Round in either 10 days or the weekend after

(20 Nov 2013, 10:59 pm)fozzovmurton wrote No surprise there to be honest, would imagine it will be next week, isn't the Second Round in either 10 days or the weekend after

It's been rearranged to be played in the first week of December. The exact date though is yet to be confirmed. BT Sport have said they will still show the game live.

The second round is the weekend of the 7th/8th December. Whoever wins between Gateshead and Oxford though, the match against Wrexham in the 2nd round will be on the Monday night so BT can show that game live as well.

Thats good, you's should make a canny penny from TV, get to the third round and happy days, laughing all the way bank if ya can get a good 3rd Round Draw

haha hopfully. There's a good chance of us doing so.

The game has now been rearranged for Thursday 5th December. Kick off is still 7:45 and it'll still be live on BT Sport.

I think we're getting £33,000 odd for this match and then even more for the Wrexham match if we get through. Plus there's all the prize money so it'll be great to get a good run

Good luck, I will be rooting for you guus

thank you

Soft penalty and their player (Williams) made the most of it.
Did it a few times throughout the game.

The offside with Larkin was very close and thought Marwood had won it near the end.

Very unlucky and Gateshead didn't deserve to loose.

cannot agree more with you. Apparently, we had 75% possession and still lost. Unlucky is not the word. Robbed and cheated would be more suitable

You can have all the possession in the world, it means nothing if you dont hit the onion sack...

Anyway, I read somewhere you were robbed, shame, I was hoping you guys would do well...Best of luck in the League for the rest of the campaign

Yeah I suppose so. We did everything but score.

Like you say though, we can now concrate on the league. We've got the FA Trophy as well. We're away to Eastleigh next Saturday for Round 2

Will be keeping an eye out for your results

Howay the lads!

Man Utd may be shite this season, but we broke the hoodoo and eventually beat them at Old Trafford.

We can beat the likes of Man Utd and Spurs on the road, Chelsea at home - but lose to the likes of Swansea, Hull and Sunderland... It may be one of those seasons!

Kiiiiiiiiiiiiii

That's all.

Was it Birmingham who won the league cup and got relegated?
Can remember something similar happening to Wigan and Middlesbrough when they got to cup finals too...

We only at the semi's, need to see who we get first?

Nah, we're concentrating on our push for the Champions League.
We gave Man City a tough game last time out, teased them a bit and let them score twice in extra time.

Seriously though, well done on getting through to the semis.

Birmingham beat Arsenal and went down in '10 or '11...
Boro got to both Cup Finals one year, 1997 I think, got beat of Leicester(League Cup) and Chelsea(FA Cup)...
Of Course Wigan beat Citeh in the FA Cup last season...

As I cant see Sunderlands away form changing anytime soon, as the semi is 2 legs, they will have to pretty much park the bus to keep the score down away and raise there game in the Home Tie

All depends on who we get.

Newcastle are doing well, im hoping we can pick points up now.

Like to see both of us in the prem, be shit next season with no derby.

Come on Michael, The Boro and Leeds are close by

I honestly cant see them pulling themselves out now, Curse of Christmas and all that...The only good thing that could possibly happen now is a Wembley appearance and hope for 3 points at SJP

Sunderland got man u in the next round...

Sunderland home first. 6.11.14
Away game is 20.1.14

Bring on the Manc's

Same, its gonna be a hard game and hard run but bring them on... their not playing as well this season.

Coulda done with being away first to be honest, if SAFC go to Old Trafford with a slender lead or a draw, it is over I reckon...Not impossible, but they need to play the games of there lives to overcome Man Yoo
