Former Newcastle midfielder Rob Lee celebrated his ‘dream draw’ after sons Olly and Elliot were handed a trip to St James’ Park with Luton Town in the FA Cup third round.

Lee senior was in the crowd at Gateshead’s International Stadium on Sunday as both of his boys were on target in a 5-0 victory over the National League side.

Afterwards, midfielder Olly said that he wanted an away tie at Newcastle and the Lee brothers got their wish, although their dad almost missed last night's draw.
