Tigers and Lions



It's Millwall who await tonight's winners of the FA Cup replay. Now, we knew anyway that we'd have a home tie against a League One side if we won at Newcastle United, but somehow the actual identity of that team surely offers Phil Brown enough incentive to pick a strong side at St James Park.

Mind you, even if we do win tonight, I don't fancy a midweek replay down at the New Den if we take the fourth round tie too lightly. That tunnel walk from Bermondsey station to the ground is petrifying. The simple way to avoid all this debate is win tonight, win the fourth round tie at the KC and win the Cup itself.
