Why would we get beat?

Get the SOL full and rocking. They are in shite form, we have a very decent young team.

Don't understand why people are shitting themselves at the prospect of Newcastle at home.
They are a prem team, and Bruce would put full strength.

Full strength prem team vs a full strength league one team.

The prem team wins 99% of the time. Look at Portsmouth vs Southampton a few years ago, im good rather Leeds away or something that
 
You know what people? Its a random draw. We don't get to choose and if its the mags home or away we will just have to get on with it and try and win the same as against the other 30 sides in the draw.

Prem teams win 99% of the time, yet you've just said you'd rather we had a prem team in Leeds.
 
Looking at the teams left in and as I am still trying to complete the 92 and see Sunderland at as many away grounds as possible, I am hoping for any of these away;

New Grounds

Brentford
Brighton and Hove Albion
Tottenham Hotspurs

Been but not seen Sunderland there

Oldham Athletic
Newport County (if they can get past Southampton)

Would have added Cheltenham but am already planning to do the league game down there next year. Been hoping for draws to work out this was for about 8 years now and other than getting Morecambe away in the EFL Trophy, don't think its worked in my favour once.

You think Bruce wud play an understrength team against us home or away ??? Haway man, he's not that thick.

All their big guns would be playing if fit - St Maximim, Willock, Wilson, Shelvey so we would be in for a pretty torrid time.

We are a League 1 side, a work in progress and they recently finished 12th in the PL and, have ONLY lost two games so far fhs and, they could quite easily have got something out of both.

You're getting carried away big time. I'd prefer to keep our unbeaten record against them thank you.

Dyche never respects this competition.
They will play all their stiffs. Easy win for the mags sadly.
Doesn't look that weak the Burnley team?
 
We are a Premier League team. We finished 12th last season. We have, by my assessment, 1 point fewer than i would have expected from the opening 2 games.
You are a League 1 team. If i can't be confident of a comfortable victory in these circumstances when could i be?

It would be very unpleasant. That said he would play a full strength team. It would be utter madness to risk anything other than playing the strongest side possible.
Under those circumstances, and allowing for it being a Derby, we should still win comfortably.

On second thought, it doesn't matter. You're not even good enough to be in the same round as little league one Sunderland
