Enjoyed this at the time

Geordie just won silverware at the Oscars. It's a sign.

Enjoyed it loads from mid December to early Jan, and not a lot either side. Apart from second leg v Arsenal obvs.

What's Tino doing behind the rest of the line for their winner

Reet, I've had my sulk. Dust wuselves down. We're going to win this.

His passing seems to have very abruptly gone to shit the last couple of months.

From the descriptions I thought it was off the ball. In play like that, I wouldn't expect a red - yellow. Stupid nevertheless.

Goals really now should be celebrated like when you win a pen. You've most likely got a goal, but not sure yet. I got sucked in by crowd and player celebrations that Schar must've been blatantly onside.

I'm going to get back to being more positive after today, but.... this really had the feeling of we can do this, but we need everyone firing on, and a bit of luck. To then basically voluntarily go and fuck our best team with stupidity has me so down. From tomorrow I'll be Harvey Barnes's Silverware Army.

I'm absolutely gutted and so annoyed. Is the final not in these players' heads?? Why would you be so stupid.

Surely it can't be a one game ban? I can't see what kind of straight red it'd be for a 1 game ban. This kind of incident is three or it's not a red.

reckon you have to go back well more than a decade to find a game I loathed as much as that that I attended. I was already at a baseline poor mood cos of the game being so shit. Then when Gordon got a straight red... FOR FUCK SAKE I'd been thinking there's just three games where players have to avoid some stupid violent red that gets a 3 match ban, they'll all be sensible. We need everything to go our way to have a chance in this final and then THAT. And after Pope last time! And Bowyer/Dyer in our last FA semi. Can we not have nice things. No good could come of the game at that point, regardless. I was in a massive sulk, resisting hard leaving early for the first time ever. Even though I paid 30 pound I was in a posh seat that had an arm rest, and sunk in my seat with high blood pressure. Then we score, and i'm hardly joyous, but at least we're through and i can go home. VAR. We're not through, I have my WHAT HAVE THEY DONE TO FOOTBALL I have whenever a goal is disallowed by VAR, think it kills a bit of my love for the game each time. AND now I have to sit through another half an hour of this shit. Hate football

A penalty shootout in the final would decimate our population

Hear… imagine if we won.

Yeah this would’ve fucked me, I always used my dad’s plus one

Was next to a guy at Heerenveen who was the most intense fan ever. Spent the whole of half time just standing there arms out, silent, like 'FUCKIN COME ON THEN' to the whole ground. Will never forget him.

Oh aye, I was at that match too, but not that bus. I met my dad at Villa Park for the 2012/13 one and he was late, just made it for first goal. He'd given an unfamiliar bus group a go and arrived late, said the bus was carnage. I know Paully was on it He ended up stopping the night in my Brum hotel room rather than get back on it.

Was this 2012/13 by any chance? When we'd just signed a load of French players. Cabaye belter.

ffs I was fancying Leicester away. Doesn't seem a good pick for telly anyway.

Yer da's Magdad

People also sing 'gannin along the Scotswood Road' again in the chorus where it should be 'passing the folks along the road'. I persist with 'folks' every time and I never hear people around me sing anything other than 'Scotswood Road'

Thought the atmosphere was really good v Arsenal in the semi at home, so hopefully we can get that going at Wembley. There seemed to be a lot of encouragement for people to make a good atmosphere before, and it worked.

I'm sure I saw he's been a fan longer but started coming over after the takeover. Believe his dad is a geordie.

Just so yous know, if we lose, we'll be the only team to have been runners up three or more times and never won the cup. Champeeonees either way. We currently share the honour of 2 finals and 2 defeats with West Ham, Everton, Bolton, Southampton and the mackems.

Spurs was shit despite good win. Was London though and the corner layout doesn’t help. Guy next to me was complaining and saying ManU a few days earlier was much better.
