28th January 2006: FA Cup Fourth Round: Cheltenham Town v Newcastle United

It's the biggest day in the history of League Two Cheltenham Town as they take on six-time winners the Magpies in this FA Cup fourth-round tie. Tiny Whaddon Road has never before played host to top-flight opposition in the Cup, and John Ward's side will relish the chance to share a pitch with Alan Shearer and co. Despite a proud FA Cup tradition, Newcastle haven't won the trophy since 1955 and Shearer would love to lift it in his final season.
