17:07: Well that brings an end to an action-packed FA Cup third round day with bags of goals and the odd shock along the way. We're only at day two of five so we're back with another host of games including some of the big guns including a repeat of last season's Final as Arsenal host Hull City. But until then, goodbye.

16:19: Six goals is as many minutes in the FA Cup as the game at Croft Park has been turned on its head as Birmingham score three quick-fire goals to storm into the lead against Blyth Spartans. Lee Novak cuts inside and scores the first, before a double from Wes Thomas including a strike from range. Great turnaround from Gary Rowett's men but can the non-league side go again?
Goal: Blyth Spartans 2-3 Birmingham City (Wes Thomas)
Goal: Tranmere Rovers 0-3 Swansea City (Modou Barrow)

Goal: Tranmere Rovers 0-2 Swansea City (Tom Carroll)
Goal: West Bromwich Albion 3-0 Gateshead (Saido Berahino)
15:53: Half time in 15 of the 17 3pm ties. The games at Barnsley and Charlton are both delayed due to gas and floodlight problems and they will be late finishes. Elsewhere, no doubt where the headlines are coming from and that is at Croft Park where non-league Blyth Spartans lead Championship Birmingham City by two Robbie Dale goals. Elsewhere, Tony Pulis' spell as West Brom boss sees them two goals ahead while Leicester lead Newcastle.
Goal: West Bromwich Albion 2-0 Gateshead (Victor Anichebe)
Goal: Rotherham United 1-1 AFC Bournemouth (Shaun McDonald)
15:46: Four goals in quick succession in the FA Cup. Leicester hit the front at the King Power Stadium with a header in off the cross-bar to lead against Newcastle. It has got even better for Blyth Spartans too who are now two goals ahead with Robbie Dale netting his second. At the Hawthorns, Gateshead's resistance is broken as Berhaino thrashes home after a goalmouth scramble.
Goal: West Bromwich Albion 1-0 Gateshead (Saido Berahino)
Goal: Blyth Spartans 2-0 Birmingham City (Robbie Dale)
Goal: Leicester City 1-0 Newcastle United (Leonardo Ulloa)
Goal: Millwall 1-1 Bradford City (Scott McDonald)
15:38: Premier League Swansea lead as Nathan Dyer cuts inside off the right has hit first shot blocked by reacts quickest to the rebound and smashes the ball home. News from Croft Park where the lowest ranked team left in the FA Cup, Blyth Spartans, lead while at Valley Parade the players have been taken off due to a floodlight failure.
Goal: Blyth Spartans 1-0 Birmingham City (Robbie Dale)
Goal: Tranmere Rovers 0-1 Swansea City (Nathan Dyer)
15:32: Chance for Marvin Emnes who runs at the heart of the Tranmere defence and shoots goalwards but misses the target. Chances keep coming for the Premier League side. At the Hawthorns meanwhile, Gateshead more than holding their own.
Goal: Cambridge United 1-0 Luton (Robbie Simpson)
Penalty for Cambridge United
15:23: Swansea should be ahead at Tranmere after missing two chances in a minute. First, Gomis sees his point-blank header turned over brilliantly by Owen Fon Williams before from the subsequent corner Fulton turns wide as he attempted to turn home a long-range effort.
15:17: Tony Pulis took to the stands for the opening 15 minutes of his West Brom tenure but he's wasted little time in getting down on the touchline and is barking instructions at his Baggies team, who have started slowly against non-league Gateshead.
Goal: Rochdale 1-0 Nottingham Forest (Peter Vincenti)
Goal: Rotherham United 1-0 AFC Bournemouth (Richard Brindley)
15:13: First chance at Prenton Part as Nathan Dyer feeds Bafetimbi Gomis, but his chipped cross-shot is cleared behind.
Goal: Millwall 0-1 Bradford City (Billy Knott)
Goal: Charlton Athletic 0-1 Blackburn Rovers (Chris Taylor)
15:05: Under way in 16 of our 17 3pm cup ties. At Oakwell, there has been a suspected gas leak so kick-off between Barnsley and Middlesbrough has been delayed.
14:56: So nine changes for Swansea, seven each for Leicester and Newcastle and four for West Bromwich Albion this afternoon. Not exactly an advert for the magic of the FA Cup. Shame but given the recent schedule, can you blame the managers involved?
14:47: Team news:
Leicester City v Newcastle United

14:41: So as mentioned below just four Premier League teams in action today and aside from following the toils of the non-league trio, that is where our focus will be. There is one all-Premier League tie as Leicester host manager-less Newcastle, while West Brom host Gateshead and Swansea travel to Tranmere Rovers, who themselves have history as giantkillers in this competition. Team news on the way.
14:30: One of the blue ribbon days in the English football calendar takes centre stage once again as FA Cup third round weekend attempts to throw up more headlines as the Premier League and Championship clubs enter the competition. Blyth Spartans, Southport and Gateshead lead the non-league challenge on this Saturday afternoon, while just four top flight sides take their bow before the big guns begin their campaign on Sunday. We'll have updates from our two featured games plus all the goals as they go in from across the 17 ties, which all kick-off at 3pm. What a novelty!
