I was supposed to be there today. I have a 6 month old son who we found out had complications when my parter was 20 weeks pregnant. After he was born he was thriving and continues to thrive. He has a large cyst on his brain though. The neurosurgeon cleared us to fly and we booked flights from Aus to land in London the weekend of the play offs hoping we would make the top 6. At our last scan 6 weeks ago they told us that they wanted to operate soon. So we had to cancel the flights. We then found out after the milwall game that he would be having his surgery on 19th May. Good job I didn’t book a quick solo trip back for the final!
Surgery was a massive success, we were discharged from hospital 2 days ago, and despite a small scare with swelling and a quick trip to A&E this afternoon to double check it was ok, we watched the game together, me in my city shirt and him in his tiger pajamas. He’s achieved in his first 6 months of supporting city what it took me 20 years to get! I’m gutted we missed the game, but so grateful he is safe and happy. We will just have to make sure we’re in attendance next time. Hopefully an FA cup final to put right our only Wembley defeat.

UP THE ****ING TIGERS!!!!!

Just having half hour on Wembley Way to actually take in the enormity if what we have achieved here, embargo, injuries, everyone writing us off, last day drama, turning over the 3rd placed team, spygate, and then probably one of the hottest days in the history of play offs against a team that shouldn't have been there. Serj and the boys I salute you, fkn fantastic,UP THE FKN TIGERS
