9th January 2005: FA Cup Third Round: Yeading v Newcastle United

0.01h 20mJanuary 9, 2005

From OPR's Loftus Road stadium in west London, the last of this weekend's FA Cup third-round ties. "The Ding" will need to muster a Herculean effort to pull off an upset - when the draw was made last December, 125 league places separated the non-league side from the Premiership giants. Johnson Hippolyte's third-round debutants will take heart, however, from the Magpies' travails in 1998, when Conference outfit Stevenage took Shearer and co to a fourth-round replay.
