Yes, I watched the game, it was on B.B.C.2. and I thought it was a good old cup tie between two local teams, but Hartlepool will be kicking themselves for not punishing Blyth Spartans when they were well on top in the first half!

But that's cup football for you and that's why we all love it because you never know what's going to happen.

Anyway, we're in Monday night's live draw for the third round so we could get the Spartans, you never know, although I suppose that they'll want an away draw at Newcastle, Sunderland or Middlesborough for another north east "derby" game and a bit of money in the bank!

Good luck to 'em, (unless we're playing 'em!)
