Bye bye Beye Beye

Contrasting fortunes for a couple of ex-Mags yesterday. While Rocky was celebrating securing Liverpool an FA Cup final appearance with a late header against Merseyside rivals Everton, Habib Beye had a more miserable afternoon. Though he opened the scoring after just three minutes, Beye was later red-carded and had to look on as his Doncaster side then conceded twice in the 90th minute, the 4-3 defeat to Portsmouth sealing their relegation to League One. Also on the scoresheet for downcast Donny was one-time Toon youth prospect James Coppinger, whose effort had given the home side the 3-2 lead they'd taken into the closing stages.
