Quick question: Are you happy with an unconvincing win in a cup game which has probably given our completely inept manager some more time to send the club down to the championship? Look at the bigger picture Ffs.

Would you rather us win or lose ? Ffs

Well I will return your first statement with an obvious adjustment ... part-timer.

Knob

I answered you.

What a pleasure to be at Ewood tonight. Of course it's always good to send the Geordies home crying (shades of Graham Fenton tonight I thought) ... but the real joy was to be sat amongst the REAL Rovers SUPPORTERS ... People like 'our kid' who had driven 150miles after work to be there. No sign of 'whinging cry-baby dummy spitting ex-fans', or half-wits who boo because they feel affronted to get beat off an all conquering City ... and of course with the tremblers boycotting it just left the REAL SUPPORTERS. Long may it continue.

Well, Mr Spark, read this a while ago and put it down to you having a few pints of Thwaites after the game. Hope I'm right, but with you posting just a few minutes ago, perhaps not.

You might want to look at one or two of the posts from folk who didn't go tonight. Out of the many who've posted, I'm a relative part-timer being a ST holder for a mere 10 years or so, missing one home game in that time. Still, I know my place - I'm now a 'whinging cry-baby dummy spitting ex-fan' in the eyes of one of the 'elite' Pune 9. Good to know where I stand, thanks.

You have somehow managed to get in the strange position of arguing with both SUPPORTERS and Tremblers.!!!

It is always rather amusing coming on here and seeing comments made during the game by people who aren't even at the ground, you don't half make yourselves look like clowns. Believe it or not there was actually more than 17 Rovers fans in attendance for tonight's game, taking photographs during the warm-up isn't always the best way to judge the attendance of a match. Also it's funny to hear people complaining about the possession stat of 30% on the BBC site. For one I do not believe this stat is accurate, I'd say Newcastle had more possession of the ball but definitely not to that degree but than again we apparently had 67% possession against Tottenham on Sunday which also I believe wasn't really true. Regardless possession in itself is worthless, it's what you do when you have the ball that counts. Overall balance of play I'd say was fairly equal, Ba was always a big threat for Newcastle but for all their play Mark Bunn had very little to do all game. All the attempts and efforts on goals where coming from Rovers.

Now onto the two Newcastle penalty appeals in normal time, I firmly believe neither where penalties, the one leading upto the Rovers penalty incident was a clear slip from Ba, Samba arm was outstretched but there was very little or no contact at all to warrant a penalty. For all Newcastle pressure we never really looked like conceding, that was until a great strike from probably Newcastle best player in Guthrie set the ball rolling for Newcastle. The most baffling thing about Newcastle's comeback was the five minutes additional time, I'm pretty certain the physio didn't enter the field of play once during that second half meaning the only added on time should have been for the six subs (said to be 30 seconds per sub) that would give you three minutes or so of added on time, even with Hoilett's extra slow walk off the pitch I was expecting four minutes at an absolute maximum. Then lo-and-behold the referee decides five minutes of extra-time and then Newcastle don't actually equalise till the 97th minute of play. It also not as if the two goals came from poor defensive errors, the long-range strike and free-kick where both top quality and in my opinion where very little to do with substitutions (although I don't agree with changing a back four, especially to put effectively a centreback at right-back in Hanley).

At that point it looked like we'd thrown away the tie and Newcastle would go onto win. We had took off our main attacking threats and where left to lump balls forward to the Scottish Rooney running threw quick-sand impression up front. It may have appeared the some fans left at this point, some had indeed left at Rovers 2-0 (deserves you right for leaving early). But the fans that had appeared to leave at 2-2 had either gone to bang their head on bathroom sink or maybe that had just gone for a quick morphine dosage, but either way they soon returned and where surely thankfully that they did to witness the continuing drama.

Pedersen patting his heart once again after a deflected free-kick, the Newcastle penalty (did pull his shirt but don't think the Newcastle player was getting to ball anyway) and finally a winning goal from Givet, who did have a superb game alongside Samba at the back. The commitment and the spirit the team showed to comeback after suffering a cruel twist in the original stoppage time was good to see. Kean's management skills have rightly come under question but I don't think his motivational skills can be questioned, the players are clearly still playing for the manager. Whilst there's the obvious underlying problems at the club, it's at least reassuring to see the players aren't committing the cardinal sin of not putting a shift in for the team. It's just a shame there wasn't more Rovers fans in the ground to witness this seven goal thriller.

0-0 lose on pens or win 4-3?

Lose i'm afraid. People can say what they want about being a "real fan"... I have the long term future of our club at heart. Being in this cup is pointless whilst rooted to the foot of the league.
