Another Northern Cup Trip

27 September 2003

Albions reward for travelling some 200 miles each way to defeat Hartlepool in Round 2 of the Carling Cup is... the chance to do it all over again at one of the few grounds even further away - Newcastle United's St James Park!

It could have been worse - sighs of relief were heard all round as Tottenham were drawn at home to West HAM - and it does mean another trip to one of the best stadiums we visited last year. The game will be played on Wednesday 29th October with a 7:45 kickoff.

Albion fans are planning minor illnesses and trips to the dentist even as we speak, but with it rumoured to be half term week there may be a few more younger fans making the journey this time around.
