So I went and started the Rotherham one, so might as well do the Newcastle one. I think we will win 1-0. Maguire to score. COYY!

Heart says a tight 1-0 win. But head is saying we will lose by a goal. 1-2 maybe

I think we will beat their second string but I reckon 6-7 regular starters in their 11 will be too much for us.

Looking forward to this one, believe it will be a harder game than Swansea last year, saying that it's all about the side Newcastle put out.
Think there will be goals, head says 3-2 Newcastle, heart says 3-2 Oxford.
Johnson will have a cracking match alerting the rest of the football world, big money move in the summer the result.
COYY

From the BBC:
--------------------------------
FA Cup team news Oxford United v Newcastle United (Saturday, 15:00 GMT) Posted at 16:25 Oxford United could hand a debut to striker Toni Martinez after his loan move from West Ham, but forward Chris Maguire (thigh) faces a fitness test. Goalkeeper Manny Agboola, 18, will be on the bench after being recalled from a loan spell at North Leigh.
---------------------------------------
I hadn't heard that Maguire was doubtful?

Can't wait for this, getting really excited now. Gonna make a proper day of it. Have a few jars and good old sing song. It should be a great Atmosphere at the stadium with the Toon army in good voice.
If we win, can we sing "lets all have a disco!, La la la" as I'm off out straight after the match aswell. xx

Yep, really been looking forward to this one. We have nothing to lose, let's hope we put in a good performance and you never know. 2 2 for me, Super Cheyenne Dunkley last minute equaliser,

I'm boycotting the FA cup until they introduce Premiership B teams. How else are we to nurture young British talent and win the 2022 World Cup?

No way we win this. A draw is probably more than we can feasibly ask for but I'll hold out hope.

Hope our ballboys have been warned about Matt Ritchie. Wonder which one he'll try to pick a fight with this time.

Is Stevens injured with Agboola on the bench? Stevens is cup tied I think.

I will happily take a repeat of my first ever Oxford United game - league cup 1983, Oxford 2 Newcastle 1!!
However should we repeat this success please be careful when randomly hugging people in adjacent seats! I've broken a couple of ribs and trying to minimise anything that hurts - like breathing!!!

I can actually see an upset AGAIN. Have a feeling the mags won't field their strongest XI and Benitez himself has said they have players away etc. I'll go with a 2-1 win to us. Ideally though a draw would be my preferred result purely for selfish reasons. I'm not there today and St James Park is a lot closer for me than the Kass is. The new boy to score the winner after playing the majority of the second half at 1-1.

im going for 2-1 to us. Think we pay them a little too much respect early on and go 1 down, half time 0 -1 , quick pep talk from MAPP and come out flying for the 2nd half. A quick goal from Johnson and then game on!. Proper end to end FA cup stuff before Hemming's, on as a late sub pops up with the winner!
YELLOWS!

The 3-0 lucky charm worked a treat as time out so I am sticking with it although in all honestly a draw and a trip to the land of the rising hem line would not be totally unwelcome. 3-0, Maguire to score and a cameo from Martinez. Amersham Dave's dog will bring on a dead mongoose and frighten the life out of Eastwood.
I do have to say it's very nice to have the distraction of a football match amongst all this nonsense.
