As common, we are at the mercy of the broadcasters, as they attain to a decision when the eight fifth round ties are played.
When it comes to fans waiting for Blackburn v Newcastle critical aspects it is two-fold, both those that hope to score to the match and the rest of us hoping to watch on TV.
Effectively, I contemplate attractive safe to judge that armchair / pub fans will be able to watch this Blackburn v Newcastle match live on TV.
I unfavorable that on what took put closing season at this stage of the competition…
Legit FA announcement on broadcast critical aspects for FA Cup fifth round matches a 12 months ago – 3 February 2023:

Having a perceive at the clubs left in the competition below, dazzling to say I contemplate that Blackburn v Newcastle would at the very least be one of six picks, if that’s against the concept. Whereas as you can see, even the opposite two that weren’t chosen on traditional channels closing season a 12 months ago, would possibly per chance per chance calm be watched via BBC iPlayer.
As for after we will safe out, closing season the FA Cup fifth round broadcast critical aspects have been revealed on 3 February 2023.
It is finally 3 February 2024 tomorrow.
Even though that’s how the FA announcement from closing season looks (see above) now, it has clearly been amended AFTER the fourth round replays. Fourth round replays have been played on 7 and eight February 2023 closing season however the alternative of video games for TV and when they would be played, used to be announced before those outcomes have been identified.
With a bit of luck it will prove the equivalent this time, as five of this season’s fifth round matches are calm waiting on outcomes of replays, those five replays taking put subsequent week, three on Tuesday 6 February and the opposite two on Wednesday 7 February.
So my bet is that we ought to safe out when Blackburn v Newcastle will be played and who will broadcast it, either today or tomorrow, with a bit of luck…
These FA Cup fifth round matches will nearly no doubt be once again confined to either Tuesday night or Wednesday night scheduling, because the Premier League rounds of matches both before and after the FA Cup fifth round, have already been made up our minds and scheduled.
