Drawn at home to Mags in FA Cup

Both teams will be massively up for it but obviously there is a big gulf in ability in your favour. That being said anything can happen in a one off game.

Agreed. You never know. A mad penalty, a red card, injuries during the game. Owt can happen and can change a game.
Wrexham beat champions arsenal in 1991.
Newcastle lost to non league Hereford back in the day and Stevenage in 2011.
Lost in successive years to lower league Brighton.
Newcastle aren't alien to losing to teams from lower divisions in the cup. It's a regular thing.

I am just saying this time i don't think they'll approach it lightly

Definitely not mate. It's going to be intense.

If the unthinkable does happen, do you think mags will smash up their own city again like all the other times or has Saudi Arabia brought order to the area?

I'll definitely be lifting the slabs off my patio to throw them through my conservatory windows. The mrs has already moved the ornaments and clock off the mantle piece. I'll be like Eric Olthwaite in Ripping Yarns
 
Hopefully we have hit some decent form by then to give them a game. My head says we will be easily beaten, especially the way they play these days but also anything can happen in the cup, they might not turn up and we might. Imagine the scenes if Neil scores and Rigg.

league one and two sides beat prem teams quite often in the early rounds. None league Luton Town beat Norwich back in 2013.

None league 10 years ago didn’t have anywhere close to the money it does now too
