Just got back and put little Locum to bed. Incredible day. Little Locum loved Wembley. Fans were amazing. Team was great. Matin was great. Ref was ****.

I thought the Leeds fans out sang us to begin with. Nervy first 15 minutes then settled into it. We never really looked like getting a second, good job McCarthy made a worldie and the crossbar helped us out. Aside from those moments I didn’t feel it was in doubt.

UTS- WE ARE PREMIER LEAGUE!

Glad he enjoyed it mate. My lad is the same age and loved the whole occasion of the day, could tell he was shocked by the size of Wembley compared to St Marys too. Great memories mate.

I actually thought the Leeds fans were ****e tbh. Started well but didn't really get going again bar the odd 5 mins. The scarfs looked good early in second half tbf but I couldn't hear what they were singing (all love Leeds presumably) and they didn't maintain it like i expected them too.

Yeah they were very loud at the start, quite intimidating, but tailed off.

Glad your son enjoyed it too. I still can’t get over how big Wembley is.

I thought all our yellows were justified TBH.

I don’t know about Ches. From where I was sat it looked like a foul, but not dangerous and not really a professional foul.

There were a few challenges where Leeds clearly went through our players to get to the ball but not given.

Thought bednareks yellow was soft.

Che's was breaking up a promising attack after he lost the ball. Had to be a yellow in that position of the pitch.

Thought the Leeds fans were immense at the start, then petered out as they realised they'd seen this script before. Strange that there didn't seem to be all those rumoured fans in the away end (proper) though there were quite a few, predictably enough, in the Club Wembley Saints end. Chilcs and I were sitting next to a couple of lads who were alright actually, but there were a few mouthy ones down the row. Mouthy that is, until an absolute beast of a Saints fan sat down next to them. They quietened up a lot after that (and left early).

Quite a few of the ones on the way back were a horror story though - one having a pop at the copper as I mentioned, then another group, led by a fella that looked like a shrunken Tyson Fury with one tooth, screaming and shouting at a couple of lads in Saints shirts that couldn't have been more than 12 or 13. Pathetic. Particularly as it wasn't the young, coked up Stoney crew, but fellas in their 50s who really should know better/have grown out of it.

Was that on Wembley way? Saw something happening with mounted police near the first stop point but I was still 30-40 rows back so couldn't actually see what happened.

They've always got an element of that in their support sadly so not surprising but in fairness every Leeds fan I spoke to today was sound.

I had the same today, all Leeds fans I chatted to, before and after, were enjoying the day and happy to joke.

Every club has scumbags, some more than others, but in every fanbase they are always the minority.

Just watched the highlights. Am I being harsh or is the McCarthy save one of those Baz is prone to conceding?

In the corner low down to keepers left. A good save but one you'd expect the keeper to make.

Yes two to his left. One on the ground one waist height.
 
Wow, just seen the pure joy on Solak's face as he was greeting the players as they collected their medals. Mistakes have been made where SR are concerned, but they are desperate to see the club succeed.
