FA Cup - The Tykes (A)

Team: Barnsley

Date: 10/11/18

Where: Oakwell

What line-up should Harry Kewell opt for? What will be the key areas for the Magpies to get a victory? What do you think the final score will be?

Have your say below, join in with the Pride of Nottingham match discussion.

I know its not a league game but maybe here Kewell can try out the silly formation ideas he seems to do often recently and leave the league games for ones he needs to focus on winning.????

think they will hammer us because they are a good side at home and i still dont think we have enough pace to take the pressure off ourselves against a side like barnsley i could be wrong.

They will score a couple of goals, they have a strong team and we have a weak defence. I just hope Ross Fitzsimons can keep his head because if he can repeat his saves from the Oldham game he could keep Notts in it.

I don't like saying it but I expect a loss, it might be a blessing in disguise so that the club can focus on the league.

So it's the fa cup a chance for Harry to try something new and change formation maybe players. We really need a good run in the cup just for morale but the league comes first. 

We need to go out attacking and score first take the game to Barnsley and use the power of the under dog to help give us that extra push and energy. 

We want have the home field advantage but I know the fans who go to oakwell will be the 12th man. 

Barnsley 5-0 Notts

Moncur x2, Mowatt, Moore, Lindsay

Expect nothing and will be totally embarrassed. Club is so far from anything at the minute. If Kewell wants to learn how to play passing football with a good balance I suggest he watch Daniel Stendel's side

Bit negative mate you never know fingers crossed 

It’s be typical of Notts to go and nick this it depends on the players attitudes, if Barnsley make changes and their players turn up thinking it’s an easy game then if Notts players turn up detetermined to fight for every ball and everything clicks into place we could cause an upset.

There are a lot of ifs there but who knows?

Hemmings and Stead both out. Definitely scoring 0

Absolute whitewash, Barnsley good at home and will prove that they are top League 1 quality.

Barnsley 4 - 1 Notts County

Potts (2) Moore and Thiam scorers for the Tykes.

I’m hoping we Nick it mate I really do I would love a home tie in the fa cup

Anyone some Match talk on here tomorrow be great if anyone fancies it hopefully the game is on the radio 

Of course all the odds are against us and to be honest I am not fussed about cup competitions at our level. Yes, if we progress a bit we gain some much needed cash but along the way we also gain injuries, player fatigue and in the end probably a sound thrashing that helps no one.

I’ll be happy if we come out of it having played well with a respectable score line.

41 minutes played and still in the game .. I’ve got faith we can hold them .. #coyp

Half time and our lads are doing us proud at oakwell 0-0 

Anyone listening to the game @Fan of Big Tone @liampie @DangerousSausage @hissingdwarf @CliftonMagpie

Notts had a goal disallowed in the first half 

48 minutes and Barnsley take the lead at oakwell

 

That’s 2-0 and Barnsley are in full control 

Normally I'm optimistic, more than I should, but as soon as that first goal went in I was dreading the rest of the half. 

That’s 4-0 so the negative score prediction has come true

Same here mate not happy feeling deflated after the first half we had 

Just got back in from my canvass and quite frankly the shoreline seems to show we’ve been hammered? Especially the second half from what Slater is saying.

So that’s the fa cup over with for another year.
