As someone said, the early goal fucked Nuno's tactics completely, because they are not good at chasing a game.Whilst the reaction from Nuno and the Forest players was gracious afterwards, if I was a Forest fan I'd be annoyed that they weren't more upset about losing a Wembley semi-final.
It's almost as though deep down they didn't believe that they could really beat us twice in a season, and that going down so early just confirmed that feeling.
A strange game - generally felt comfortable, yet we could have lost it with a few inches difference here or there.
It seems like a couple or more are remembering how to play the 'City' way - and are getting used to winning.
Amazing what a short run can do for everybody, both on the pitch and on here...
Don't want to revive a now-dead debate but… this isn't a handball??

Not going to happen. Cup scheme has to be first. I would like to see some fans rewarded but my family couldn't go, been to all cup games as on all cup schemes but moving house stopped us going.I will say this, City MUST allow everyone who went to that game yesterday first refusal on final tickets, doesn't matter the reason people couldn't go, but City need to let the fans who went yesterday first option on tickets.

Totally agree. I said this to a few people yesterday and all were in agreement. Of course they won’t do this, but they should.
Was in Middleton for midnightJust a question what time did the coaches from Pink parking get back to Manchester last night ?
Cheers we had a mare got back to Barrow past fooking 4am this is about 3 hours kater than normalWas in Middleton for midnight
Sadly you are probably right. It should not be a god given right to go to finals if you do not go to semi's. Tbh yesterday was uncomfortable before, during and after MCFC totally outnumbered. We are a much bigger club than NF, our privileged ticket holders for every game have become somewhat complacent, so open it up a bit. Great day btw.Not going to happen. Cup scheme has to be first.

Arm in unnatural position. Diverted the path of the goal-bound shot.100% a penalty
If grealish against utd was a pen then that was stonewall. (Neither pens for me)Arm in unnatural position. Diverted the path of the goal-bound shot.
Well, we were in a car, parked on pink and got home at 00:25, so I guess it would be much later.Just a question what time did the coaches from Pink parking get back to Manchester last night ?
So if yesterday was the only City game someone’s attended all season they should get first refusal on tickets for the final? Makes perfect sense.I will say this, City MUST allow everyone who went to that game yesterday first refusal on final tickets, doesn't matter the reason people couldn't go, but City need to let the fans who went yesterday first option on tickets.

If they want to do that, they need to open the cup schemes up to members next season. It won’t happen this season. I’m not convinced the club care who goes to Wembley or who doesn’t though to be honest.I will say this, City MUST allow everyone who went to that game yesterday first refusal on final tickets, doesn't matter the reason people couldn't go, but City need to let the fans who went yesterday first option on tickets.

There should be some mechanism for those who could be arsed going yesterday. I doubt many would have been first timers, but I get your point.So if yesterday was the only City game someone’s attended all season they should get first refusal on tickets for the final? Makes perfect sense.

They should care that approx 7,000 couldn’t be bothered yesterday. Of course some people have other commitments and can’t make it, but I’m also sure that many couldn’t be bothered as it’s on TV, stupid KO on a Sunday, novelty worn off etc.If they want to do that, they need to open the cup schemes up to members next season.

I’ve got a feeling yesterday’s match is going to turn out to be the new “ York Away!” I don’t remember having a go at other blues when I was one of the 3007 watching Mansfield at Maine Road in 98. Personally I don’t give a toss about early leavers, Semi Final absentees, etc. It is what it is and none of my business what other Blues get up to apart from when they’re scrapping amongst themselves near me at Wembley which now seems to be a bit of a tradition.Sadly that is the attitude, I posted that as a multi decade ST Holder.
