    The media wants a wolves city final. The FA want it.
    The ref will want it too. The pundits want it.

    Ugh.

    Unusually, Beryl & her daughter, Denise, were in the same GB cycling squad in 1972.

    Unthinkable today.

    On a more positive note, I hear Theresa May is still aiming for a Watford/Brighton final.

    And she’s certain she can achieve it.

    In that case - more the ambition to make them eat Humble Pie. Gary and his cronies must hate having to
    speak about or see Watford on the BBC. How fitting it would be from that angle if we were to get
    through today.

    My son has been in his room the last hour playing with lego. I thought he wasnt that excited then,

    Collars with bells.
    Failing that a small 'rescue box' to keep captured creature and then liberate.
    I save 90% of Ford and Arthur's captures.
    Sometimes the rodents die of shock but I have a good rescue record!

    Coming up from the deep sarf. Just met my first Wolves fan of the day.

    He seemed almost civilised. Much nicer that the stripey nigels anyway.

    I am first aid trained although I've never taken a module on other creatures!
    Didn't Ian Anderson or Rory Harper once give CPR to a sheep?

    Burton got beaten 9-0 in their match with City. Don't wear it to the final.

    To a sheep? Isn't the idea to eat them? (And wear their coats and use them as a useful metaphor*)
    * Eg pundits, media, malleable Joe Neutrals and so forth all deciding they want Wolves to win. [Ironic, really, that they should be sheep-like about Wolves of all creatures.]
    {PS - Hope you admired my square brackets}.

    Let's be honest here, the media and pundits will view it as City v other. The opponent will be deemed irrelevant and someone to be patronised briefly before returning to comments about how brilliant city are. Today's game is about who get patronised.

    Not going to the game as I’m across the pond, not the one in the high street and I’m more nervous than if I was going. Please god let this be better than the last two big games at Wembley.
    Good luck everybody. Hopefully see you in May!

    Stupid, sentimental decision starting Gomes. Hope it doesn't cost us. Would have dropped Pereyra over Deulofeu.
