    That's Billy all over. Well done to them and if it makes him happy then good for him, he's too OTT to take remotely seriously and like it or not I get strangely drawn into reading his mad ramblings.

    Anything can happen in a one off game and I have a feeling Sunderland may actually do it - I would swap winning a trophy for anything including Premiership survival.

    Fair play to them indeed, but as the the original OP stated, it would be great if they got beat (tonked) and opened up another euro spot that we benefitted from.

    Will be nice to know that there will be a sizeable audience watching them get their arses handed to them.

    Let them have their day in the sun, at least the warmer weather will help to dry their tears a bit quicker !

    Congratulations to them. A Man City win would open up an extra European spot - tho we'd still need two top teams to be in the FA Cup final cos I think top six is still a step too far - but **** I am jealous of their day at Wembley.

    And if they win it........<doh>

    Manure are a very ordinary team atm but fair play to the Macks on beating them and getting to Wembley where they will again be underdogs against the best team in the country. Nothing to lose go for it

    Over both legs Sunderland were the better side and deserve trip to Wembley.
    Hope City slaughter them.

    No doubt they will, they'll take it a bit more seriously than Moyes did.

    Oh and for what its worth, hope yours do make Europe, you have a strong enough team to qualify, not sure about the depth mind. We are making the best of a **** season so can't really grumlbe at a cup final (feels awesome saying that), even though we'll likely get smashed. Its a day out. Been to the new Wembley yet? What's it like?

    Well played to them and as many have mentioned they deserved it over two legs as ManU were abysmal. The only shining light I have is that they played extra time last night and have the FA cup tie while our players are basking in the sun (would prefer to still be in both cups though obviously). Hopefully fatigue may play a part in the Derby, though we should not need it.......

    It's a great stadium Indy. A bit 'over corporate' though in parts. They have the crossbar from 66' mounted in the cafe area which was a nice touch.
    Transport links are good so you should be able to get there and back quite smoothly.
    The surrounding area is a bit of a **** hole to be fair as they are still building stuff.
    If you have the wedge the Hilton across the road is a decent hotel and literally a stones throw from the entrance.

    I went to watch Whitley Bay and it is a bit heartless but seems to be set up pretty well for larger numbers! Transport links as mentioned are excellent and also would agree that the surrounding area is pants.

    Used to go to Wembley quite a lot when I was in London, didn't think it was all that hot then.

    Went there for our Cup Finals and came home unhappy too. Saw poor old Pedro coming out almost in tears one year.

    I've only seen it from T5, Heathrow and on the train from Euston going to Manchester funnily enough.

    I'm still not sure on that arch, would have been nice if the could have somehow kep the twintowers.
