Darlow is on loan at Hull City. Not sure if they can get him back so Gillespie might play!

The lesser-spotted Joe Riley finally makes his Walsall first-team debut, coming on after 67 minutes in their 1-1 home draw against the Taffs. They were 1-0 up at the time. Think we can safely say Simmo was right to offer Riley reduced terms.

I’m hoping for a few more injuries for Newcastle keepers leaving them with only Gillespie and Tony Caig to chose from. Caig might be a better bet in a Wembley penalty shoot out.

I felt for the Geordies last night. It would be a shame if they got a good hiding in the final after such a long wait for silverware.
Looks like it’s a straight choice between Loris Karius or Mark Gillespie for the final.

A shame?
I'd laugh my cock off.
Hopefully they'll get thrashed, concede lots of goals and score none.

I’m no fan of the barcodes, but there’s no club I despise more than Manchester United.
Hopefully Newcastle take home the cup.

Why do you despise them?
Have we ever played them in your lifetime?
Manchester United are an irrelevance to me, I don't give a **** what they do.
Simple fact is, I can't ever want Newcastle to win and enjoy seeing them lose - especially now with the way they're funded. I didn't think it was possible to make me detest that club and their fans anymore than I already did, but credit to them - they found a way.

Because my whole family supports them and all my early childhood I had that club pretty much forced on me. I hated it and I grew to hate the place, their fanbase as a whole and everything about the club. If that club folded I would pop open the champagne. No we’ve never played them in my lifetime, thankfully.
The day I finally plucked up the courage to tell my family I hated their club and came out as a Carlisle United fan was the first day of my football life. Everything before that was a constant battle for my identity.
Newcastle on the other hand are an irrelevance to me and I don’t give a f*** what they do. Apart from this coming weekend where I hope they smash that red shite.

Why do your family support Manchester United? Is it where they're from originally or are they just plastics?
Fair enough with your hatred, the way your were treated was abusive in absolute fairness.
My hatred of Newcastle stems from when we were divisional rivals, the attitude of their entire club towards us, the behaviour of their fans, the "reception" we got over there when we played them - everything. You probably weren't even born, but just wait until we play them in the league again - then you'll understand.

Agree there. Newcastle are an abomination of a club and hopefully they’ll fail spectacularly under their Saudi ownership sooner rather than later.

Richie Bennett off on loan to Scunthorpe, at 31 and with his recent injuries is this the end of his league career?

Classic Bennett goal, left footed tap in from a rebound. National League has always been his level, fair play for him giving it a go in the EFL, he could easily have done the rounds as a 10-15 goal a season striker in non league, but he was never strong or quick enough to be successful in League two. Wondered if we would have gone up the season he signed if we'd got Chris Porter instead.
