Emotional day for me, my old man passed away a year ago this Monday and can clearly remember watching last years final with him in hospital. Hugging my brother, balling my eyes out when we scored thinking of him.

UTFT we only went and did it! Enjoy the ride everyone!
13 years since I lost mine. Wept yesterday at full- time but had my son with me. Great day. UTT.
 
Just WOW!!!!

What a day and what a result.I arrived back home at 8.20 this morning after just short of 10 hrs on a bus,Lady Ric fed and watered me and tucked me up under the duvet after 48 hrs of sleep deprivation,dehydration and hobbling around London. I've just emerged from under it...

Massive shout out to the players,coach,staff and Chairman of Hull City AFC and Bet 365 for funding my outing....31/10 was quite the gift,as was McBurnie first goal at 17/2.

Special mention to a young lad of 20 years(just a pup in real terms)on the National Express coach we travelled up on during the night.Supported us all his days(half English)and goes to 5 or 6 games a season,and having jumped off our Coach at 7.40 this morning he then had to run for the Glasgow to Aberdeen bus....Don't know if he posts or even looks on here but if you do,respect!!

Huge day in our Club's History,I feel privileged to have been there and proud and honoured that some of our Tigers travelled from foreign shores and some in particular who ticked another box on a bucket list(you know who you are).

Up Our Tigers!!!
Great day from beginning to end, next time bring a hand held fan to cool you down. :emoticon-0103-cool::emoticon-0148-yes:


It's our time.
 
Anyone know if there’s going to be a MOTD type highlights programme from yesterday on terrestrial telly please?

Next time I'll bring the Mrs she fits the bill but walking up "Shoot Up Hill" in 30 degrees centigrade is not to be recommended!!!

Some lazy f*ckers got the bus,however I commend you on the reconnaissance mission that found a boozer in London selling Strongbow at £2.85 a pint:emoticon-0103-cool:
 
One thing about my day, the drive down was pretty stressful , not really London but just the motorway , constant stopping and delays with no obvious apparent obstruction , the drive in from edge of London to my parking spot was about 30-40 mins, nothing too awful . But getting out absolute piece of piss, I’ve had more hassle getting on anlaby road after a home game , kind of regret selling concert ticket I had for Wembley now .
 
What a magnificent day it was yesterday, right up there in my top 5 Wembley days out, fantastic support from both teams, raucous, saw loads of old school city and ex players, brilliant for the youth too, and families, amber smoke bombs and smoggie tears on Wembley Way, always emotional at the late final whistle yet 1-0 victories are our thing, what a record we have there, and a bright future now, what a stunning season and finale. Always proud to be a lifelong fan. CTID.

Yeah I don't know what had happened near Doncaster but there where lots of blue lights we turned off went through edge of Donny not sure it saved a lot of time to be honest ..
Was in pub at Watford junction before 11.45 so not bad .

Some sensible feckers (first time for everything) had every intention of getting the bus from the tube to the pub, and back again. Steverico found the pub, four stops from Wembley Park was very acceptable. :)


It's our time.
 
Can I just commend our coach driver. We set off at 6.20pm, and got back too Beverley at 10.45. No stop.
Better than ours. Set off at 7pm and got back to Walton street at 1.10am. Two stops as apparently our younger fans seem to have bladders the size of peas.

On the way there we got to the Walton St /Anlaby Road traffic lights at 6.45 am, hit the first of the days many queues, coach left the stadium at 8.15am and we got to Wembley at just before 3pm. Only because we demanded the driver let us off and walk the last half mile. Bit gutted to miss soaking up the atmosphere on Wembley Way beforehand tbh, but we got to our seats before the national anthem so didn’t miss anything pitch side.
 
I posted at half time that it looked like it was going to be a regulation City-play crap City win 1-0 but forgot to push the post button in my frenzy to. make breakfast before the restart. And indeed it was 1-0 but we did not continue to play crap, the defense as it had been in the first half played with little frailty with the back three looking imperious. Second half we started to open up a little and started creating, and our failure to advance much in the first half rather than being an indication of being outplayed was part of a tactical masterplan drawn up by by Sergei and his lieutenants with the result that we always looked, as time went on, like the ones who would score. And there was no doubt who that man was going to be-McBurnie-who had grafted all game long l like an Irish Navy on a fiver a shovelful. Kudos to the team and to Sergei and his team. And to Acun so pleased for him, he has put his heart and soul into the club and the community. Cant wait to read again sometime in the near future, I think it was-London 0 City 3.
 
Got home about half 1 this morning - well worth the wait to get out of the coach park, though! We are Premier League, boys and girls!
It's not really that much difference to getting out of ground to rail links ,queuing to get on then 30 minutes journey .

Dunno if there’s limiters on there but he was going way over 50 odd MPH. Was Acklams. We set off at 7.30am got there at 1.30pm.
 
Great, ta. I might have been a bit too excitable to have checked yesterday!
And if I had I wouldn’t have checked ITV4 either. I thought it might be bigger news than that, which realistically should prepare me for next season!

What a weekend. What a team. The sun was shining, won a few hundred on the game and the lads were never going to let us down. Days like this is what being a supporter is all about, glory supporters will never experience anything like it, drink it in and enjoy every moment of it, special day. I love this bloody team.

Just about every Middlesbrough fan I met after the game were class too and weren’t sore losers, we could all sit together and have a pint, bet the police were bored stiff. UTFT!!
