    Can't argue with that and I congratulate you on your win, in extra time you were the better team and deserved it. Doesn't change the fact that an attendance of less than 21k for a cup quarter final is shockingly poor.

    It wasn't just Leeds though, we beat some other top teams in the previous rounds including Man City, and Arsenal in the semi.

    Most of us realise that though and many have commented on this. You come across a bit jealous with your isolated lonely dig ;)

    The media today do seem to regard it as a semi formality rather than a semi final.

    As for the attendance, I don't think 21k is too bad in the current circumstances, TBH. With a settled squad performing well it would go up. But we've made NUFC look well run lately, which is what is really shocking...

    You've banned everyone else fella so only me left to post <laugh>

    I'm definitely jealous of your cup performance and upcoming semi final, I'd hate for you to win the thing. Having said that I definitely wouldn't swap our season for yours based on the fact that I'd rather stay up and not win a cup. Not saying that you won't achieve both (survival and silverware) but it's highly unlikely IMO.

    If the semi final was over one leg then you'd have more than half a chance, I just think over two legs that 99% of the time the best team goes through.

    Going to be a tough like, especially being away 2nd leg.

    I couldn't say just yet if I'd swap ours with yours. It depends on us staying up and winning the cup of course so a big if. But it's been very very interesting, entertaining twist and turny season for me, I'm an optimist so don't mope and feel sorry for myself.
