Nice to see them there than Villa , who ever plays against them it should be a final with a bit more meaning than the usual suspects who attend .This seasons competition has had it profile raised thats for certain ,fingers crossed now that they play a team in white
bradford looked the part in every game theyve been up against one of the so called bigger boys>>>>its gonna be interesting in the final and i wouldnt feel 2 confident whoever wins 2moro>>>>>good luck for the game by the way>>>rather u than some english club
One thing for sure, whoever plays them will not get the 'neutral' support, but will have it there for the taking. Extra pressure as the win will almost be expected (even though we know football is not like that).
Been living in Bradford for some time - half my workmates went down to Birmingham this afternoon leaving me and a few others to do the work. Sore heads for them in the morning! Damn well hope we can joint them. Having problems though persuading my girlfriend - a Bradford lass - to join me in the Swansea end should we get to Wembley!
Great win for Bradford and all due respect to them. But let's be honest, if we can get past Chelsea, surely this must be a gilt edged chance for us to win our first major trophy and get into Europe as well. We start two goals up and if this isn't an incentive to put everything into the game, I don't know what is. I'm not taking Bradford for granted if we do get to Wembley because they have repeatedly shown that they can upset the odds and get a result. BUT. It would be a game that we should win and would be heavy favourites to do so. So now bring on Chelsea who will also feel that their name is on the cup if they can get past us. It should be a hell of a game. And, final word to Bradford. Whatever our result, I'm delighted for them. Great achievement!!
I listened to the last 30 minutes of the Bradford match on the radio - my nerves are shot to pieces already
cheers, you know irl and on boards its getting harder to have banter with cardiff fans......when people stop slingging ****e your less inclined to in response. gl for the rest of the season before the battle resumes next.
I never thought I would see the day that we could possibly be in a Wembley final and be overwhelming favourites. Not just that but every neutral fan would want us to lose. That puts into perspective the major achievement that Bradford City have made by getting all the way to a cup final. Fantastic achievement by them I still can't quite believe it.
As long as we get past chelsea then i thought we have the beating of anyone of them....Nice to see bradford get through but we will slaughter them on the big pitch at wembley with our ball keeping skills....They are rubbish in div2 with them getting beat by loads of goals. .. Villa would have given us more trouble but we would have beaten them and i think we will put 4-5 goals past bradford......
I thought Bradford were good value for the win, it is quite an unbeleivable thing for them to get to a final being in L2 full respect to them for that, if we make it then its going to be one of the weirdest cup finals ever IMO !! 2 unfancied teams with alot of neutral fans for different reasons.

Norway, no neutrals would support us or Chelsea in the final against Bradford and I wouldn't blame them either. As Dai says though I'd expect us and Chelsea to run them ragged at Wembley.
I thought after that game that we could have beaten them if both teams played us at the same time. there was nothing there with two poor sides that one of them had to win....The cup is either chelsea's or swansea's and we will find that out tomorrow.....
I disagree there Dilli, robin van persie for one will be supporting us !! him and all the other football purests will IMO like to see a footballing side like ours win a cup,it gives every other aspiring club the hope that things can be done on a realistic budget and that wont be lost plenty of footy fans. Bradford will of course be popular and will shade it over us but i think we still in many peoples eyes stand for the under dog. Anyway, this conversation is one day too early ...
