Sounds like a plan, I remember going to Wembley as a kid in the 80s and my dad having an eppy when somebody tried to charge him a quid for a can of pop

They hadn't put the prices up by last year, although they did have some sort of weird system in place to try and stop you buying multiple drinks at once.

you'll never believe it but it's why yes finely poised exactly how did u know
bradford obv the better side having most of the play but wall with the better chances, couple of sitters and now it's just getting bitty and tense etc
wall have yet to take john sitton's classic advice and bring on fred onyedinma (who qpr are signing on a free after this game supposedly)

he never stays anywhere too long does Webber. Overrated huckster who made some good decisions and made some bad, now he is just repeating the formula - albeit on massiver wages!

got to say though, bullshit merchant or not Wagner and VLP were great acquisitions, but Wagner's own signings have been great value as well.

local coverage on the next Leeds manager will supersede lil old us, even if we get promoted to the prem on monday. We have to do it just rub some manure all over those bitter Whites involved with local BBC.

There is something very UKIP about Monk's attitude and mannerisms that really grinds my gears, but getting into the politics of footballers/managers is a probably a complete waste of energy.

I'm jealous - I'll be in Norwich pretending to be an artist until Sunday then will be dashing down without enough time spare to ensure I remember nothing at all about the day out at Wembles.

The security goons at Wembley seemed a bit keen last time, one of them accused me of being too drunk which was only about half right. I am going have a good drink but maybe a bit less than last time. It sounds like taking any bags is a no as well, wouldn't even be sure if you could leave one in a locker at Victoria station atm. Probably travelling light will be the order of the day.

Thanks. It'll be a weird one with 17-18000 of us and about 6000 of Blackpool. Would rather be playing Blackburn than Forest Green next year but it doesn't fee like the biggest deal for some reason. Still excited though, obv.

Thanks all, I had three quarters of a good day! It wasn't much of a game and I feel a bit sore this morning but I'm not as disappointed as I might be - compared to failing to get back into the league this is nothing.
