Tranmere's Max Power: "We put up a good fight and gave a good account of ourselves so the lads aren't too downhearted. There was hope in our stomach when we pulled one back at 3-1, and again at 4-2, and we did think what might happen but they were just too good on the day."

Pundit John Hartson on Newcastle's managerial situation: "Newcastle need to appoint a manager quickly. I know John Carver knows the role and has done it before, but it needs a new face.

"Names are being mentioned like Michael Laudrup. But whether they go for someone British or from overseas, they need to make their minds up quickly."

Southport manager Gary Brabin on his team's last-gasp defeat at Championship side Derby: "The players in that dressing room are devastated, particularly with conceding a penalty - in the 93rd minute - for the winner. It was a cruel way to go down, but I'm proud of the lads.

"They have showcased themselves well and I think they have left with a lot of friends. The Derby supporters clapped us off the pitch - that oozed class. We leave with our heads held high."

On the performance of teenage Spanish keeper David Raya Martin, who made a string of excellent saves before Derby's winner: "He has been different class today. He's got a real bright future ahead of him."

Leeds United's former England defender Stephen Warnock, who was born close to Southport, tweets:, external A great effort by Southport today! Nearly a great result. Hopefully they can take that form into the league.

Fulham manager Kit Symons: "Our decision making and quality in the final third wasn't quite there today. You can see with the team we put out today we took it very seriously."

West Brom manager Tony Pulis: "Gateshead played really well in the first 20-25 minutes and were a credit to their league. Their supporters and manager should be very proud of how they played.

"Saido Berahino is a very talented boy. I look forward with him as a player for however long I am here as manager

"There is always going to be transfer speculation and you can see why. He has great pace, great balance and scores goals. But when I came in here the chairman had not received any offer for him and we will try our damnedest to try and improve him."

That's seven games without a win for Nottingham Forest now. Pressure on Stuart Pearce?

Anthony Regan: PNE! Get in!

Scott Maclennan: Stuart Pearce is hopeless.

Lee Harb Harbert: Don't blame Pearce. It's the 11 on the pitch, albeit a few who try their hardest.

Pundit Steve Claridge: "I think Birmingham came out with the right attitude in the second half. Players grasped the initiative and Lee Novak's goal early gave them real impetus.

"Birmingham put Blyth under pressure early and it lead to more goals coming."

Karen Lynch: Great efforts by Blyth Spartans, Gateshead and Southport.

Matt Birtwistle: Derby were always going to score - too much character in the team. #getcarriedaway? more like #keepfeetfirmlyontheground!

Sir HC Rockets: I've been a Toon supporter all my life and never seen them win anything of note. Excuses no more, action now.

Liam Smith: Unlucky @Blyth_Spartans a very spirited performance against @bcfc. What a talent you've got in Robbie Dale. Keep him

Tim Arstall: Full respect to Blyth Spartans as a Blues fan, incredibly character and hard fought display and a credit to the #FAcup

The full-time whistle is also belatedly tooted at Oakwell. Kick-off was delayed after someone complained they could smell gas in one of the stands, but it did not affect visitors Middlesbrough.

The third-placed Championship side dominated against their League One hosts and deservedly move into the next round after two second-half goals.

"Birmingham's fitness was a big factor. The Blues upped the tempo in the second half and Blyth just couldn't keep up. Birmingham also started to play significantly more direct football, and were always in control in the second 45 minutes."

Blyth boss Tom Wade: "I am exceptionally proud of the lads. We played some good stuff on a boggy pitch and we were very close to winning the game.

"It's a proud day for everybody. We knew we would give them a good game and we did that. It's a great compliment to the players.

"We didn't plan to be 2-0 up a half-time and we knew that we had to not concede in the first 10 minutes of the second half but we couldn't do that.

"Fitness was the difference in the end. They were stronger than us and that told in the second half. But we have worked so hard to get to where we are, we have matched a Championship side for a lot of today's game. We just hope that we can get more fans through the gates now."

Gateshead manager Gary Mills: "My players were superb in the first 40 minutes, but we conceded five in the space of 13 minutes and that is disappointing. Seven-nil-is not a nice way to get knocked out but that is what happens when you give the ball away at this level.

"I have to look at the positives for my team and I think that we kept the ball well. They were chasing us at times which is a great thing to see."

All over at the Valley - where the action was delayed for 12 minutes after floodlight failure. Now the lights have gone out on the Addicks' FA Cup hopes.

Championship rivals Blackburn go into the fourth round thanks to Chris Taylor's brace.

West Brom's Saido Berahino, who scored four goals in the Baggies' win: "Gateshead started really bright in the first 20 minutes and passed really well, tried to play, but once we scored the first, we were confident we could get more. We wanted to kill the game off as soon as possible.

"Tony Pulis is a big character and has put his stamp on the club already, you could see that the lads were getting stuck in for him today and it is great to see us get seven goals for him today."

Most of the 4,319 travelling Newcastle fans were deeply unimpressed by their side today.

Caretaker boss John Carver, not a man noted for his diplomatic skills, has just faced up to their complaints as his side trudged off.
