I am pleased that Sunderland are through and hopefully we are more focused than the FA Cup final.
We are a totally different animal now to that day last May. It's impossible to picture the current squad, and the feel good factor that seems to be flowing around it, putting in such a half-arsed performance as we did against Wigan.

True we have shown a improvement in our attitude this season but the league result against Sunderland has shown that there is still work to be done before we can win the trophy.
 
No way man city can beat sunderland away so... Congratulation to sunderland on winning the capital one cup :)
 
Think people are making a little bit too much of a few cockney rags taking liberties but the prospect, however slim, of losing to those cunts in a final would make the whole day a nervy one so I'm glad it's Sunderland
 
Said during the game how good it would be to play sunderland and have a bit of banter with them before during and after the game.
Puts a completely different atmosphere to the day and should demonstrate how finals should be without the vile attitude of sections of utd and their fans.
Last time we played them at Wembley scholes acted like one of the thugs who follow them.
'But oh we have to make allowances because Paul cant tackle'

Cant wait .

Will be great day out for families now, makems are decent fans.

I wonder if we will get are normal end, Green Man etc?

Very likely. Most blues know their way around making it easier for transport and pedestrians around ground, police will make sure this happens.

Don't understand why people wouldn't have taken their kids if we'd have played the rags. It's a cup final, I would never let my lads miss it because of them.
I know where your coming from and now I'm definitely taking my young boy to his first (hopefully not last) trip to wembley.was seriously debating whether to go against them tw*ts just because of the tension,the bell**nds and the flying objects!!! My sons safety comes first before any kind of pride.if anything happened to him I wouldn't be responsible for my actions ;)
 
looking forward to the final , will be a good day out , and we owe sunderland , they have robbed us on a few occasions recently , a shame we couldnt have humiliated the rags at wembley , but at least my grandkids will now be safe on the day

I went round to Mc Donalds with my kids after the game and didnt realise it was United side...was fronted up by about 5 of them.

I think the fact I am 6ft 2 and over 16st meant they thought twice about attacking us ...one even said its open season.

I told mine that we would go into Wembley Central if it was them as Wembley Park was their station and thats where most Blues got picked off.

They are cowards most of them and tried it on again at the Charity Shield but this time I saw loads getting a good kicking as no kids mainly blokes.Have to say I didnt mind it after my experience at the Semi.

Sunderland hard as nails but real men so will be a great day regardless of the score.
 
One thing I noticed against Wigan was that there seemed to be loads of kids with grandperants. The grandperants were dressed in none football stuff and the kids had football shirts on carrying flags. Said to my mates that due to wigans average gate that these kids may have been to their first ever game taken as a treat by their rugby following grandperants. And to boot saw their team lift a trophy in their first live game. Those thoughts we had,made loosing bare able. We spent ages outside a pub after ,watching fans of all ages in dark blue shirts loving the day, all felt top of the world,some I guess thought they would never see this again. I wasn't feeling or being patronising. They were heart felt. I remember the second leg in 99. Was sat with my dad in platt lane. Would have taken just one major trophy in my lifetime that day believe me. Could never enjoy a day out at wembly like that if we played the rags. Win or loose. Not the same way.
 
I must be the only one who fancied turning Utd over in the final that would have just completed their misery this season.
