Live updates as Newcastle United prepare to discover their opponents for the fifth round of the FA Cup with the draw set to get underway this evening

The Magpies have been allocated 31,939 tickets for the West End of the stadium. While this is slightly lower than the club's allocation for the 2022/23 final, the club has ensured a higher percentage

Only those who were aged under 18 in May 2007 will be eligible to apply for the 30,000 tickets. The club give an email address and every Newcastle United fan has 50 words to explain why they deserve a ticket more than any other Newcastle supporter. Yasir Al-Rumayyan then reads them all and gives the 30,000 tickets to the 30,000 ‘best’ fans.
