Globe Arena trotting

Our opponents in the Second Round of this season's League Cup will be Morecambe - a first-ever meeting between the two clubs. Last year we were predictably knocked out by Man Utd, so this time around we face a different sort of challenge. As if it didn't look like a big enough banana skin already, the tie is the Shrimps' reward for sending Wolves crashing out in midweek. With a bit of professionalism and application, we'll win - but with Newcastle you can never be sure of that.
