    I would pass as well if we were playing away at Hull rather than Arsenal. :emoticon-0100-smile

    shame that we got what seems to be the hardest draw but both are beatable and i'm guessing Flores will definitely field our strongest team, we should have our 40 points by the time the match is played so no worries about staying up (not that we are worried now but 40 is the target)...so, let's just hope we don't sit back for 90 minutes coz this is a one off game and anyone can win it ..wembley awaits! COYH!

    But these are ST holders that I have sat with for donkeys years - why did they not purchase their own seats? Those from the family stand could have picked up other seats - my mate relocated to the Upper GT. we were 2k short of selling out.

    I was reading before the game that some were not intending to take up their seats because they did not wish to get involved in any possible trouble with 4,000 Leeds fans at and around the ground. Some clearly had children, and were having to try and explain why they would not go. Not sure that this would account for a lot, so have we attracted a couple of thousand simply so they can watch PL football?

    As our game will be on TV, the nightmare scenario would be away at Hell on a Sunday afternoon.

    Of course our present squad is now a match for most teams..... mind you it would take a very special day to beat Arsenal at Highbury....

    I would slightly prefer to play Arsenal as I am going to miss the league match as I am taking a short break at Easter - but my head would prefer Hell..even if it means probably having to drive there.

    I parked in the Hospital car-park Yorkie - only took 20 minutes. But as we walked along with Little Miss W_Y wearing a Watford top, the abuse we got was unbelievable - and they stuffed us! It will always be Hell to me.
