Black Cats Draw Blyth or Blackburn in Fourth Round
By: Stephen | January 4th, 2009So, with that win yesterday the Black Cats were place in the draw for the Fourth round of the FA Cup. They’ll face either non-league Blyth Spartans or Blackburn (who play on Monday at 3:30 my time, and i’m on the east coast of the USA).
Of course we know all about Blackburn, since they’re a big club, and we recently played them But what do we know about Blyth? Well from their official website:
The history of Blyth Spartans is not complete without reference to the teams FA Cup exploits. Having beaten a number of league clubs over the years the club reached the 5th round of the FA Cup in 1977/78. Having beaten Chesterfield and Stoke City the club drew 1-1 with Wrexham before loosing 2-1 in a replay at St James Park watched by a crowd of 42167! Yes 42167!
Well, if I may say so, I want Blackburn to lose. Not only because it would be a neat story for Blyth to get to the fourth round, but I don’t want to see Blackburn so soon after our last match.
