Great to get there, and the two teams playing should ensure there is a huge crowd. Unfortunately (or fortunately) for me, the Sunday League team my son and I started this year are through to our League Cup final on the same day, which is played at the local Ryman Premier team's stadium, so I'll not be getting to Wembley.
Probably for the best though, I've only ever seen us lose there since the first time I went in '85 for the Milk Cup Final!

Glad you boys managed to nick a point right at the death!!
Ainsworth & his anti-football is absolute hell to watch.
If they manage to get a lead, the theatrics start. Fake injuries all over the park, players dropping like flies, head injuries at any moment. It's impossible to get any momentum going, they really are the pits.
You can write the script now, if they're winning, their game will be the last to end on a Saturday afternoon.
Refs just aren't strong enough, they could comfortably add 20 mins stoppage time!
Anyway, all the best for the rest of your season.
From an Argyle fan!

I think the whole football league would be happy to see the back of Wycombe and their approach to 'playing' football! Thankfully it looks their results reflect the way they go about the game.
Ground out a result yesterday, but it's going to be a very difficult run-in, especially with a number of key-player injuries.
Fingers crossed!

Good luck tomorrow you lot.
See, we can be nice.

After the first 45 you'd have been foolish to bet against us but we did our usual sitting back, negative pish, the difference between the two halves was night and day, we didn't deserve to get to extra time, never mind penalties.
Ah well! Great day out, non the less. I'm absolutely fking steaming

Glad you enjoyed it. Shame you lost, but in cattermole it couldn’t have happened to a more deserving player....
Ta It was a terrible penalty TBH, no idea what he was thinking on that one!
This drinking lark, too, urgh, I'm getting old; I still feel absolutely shocking! Back to the grind tomorrow, too! ;(
Level on points with Barnsley with a goal difference that is lower by one, with two games in hand over them.
It'd take a monumental disaster for us not to capitalise on that or for us to let Pompey (absolutely massive game against them at the end of the month) back in to the automatic promotion mix, but, this is Sunderland, so hold on to your hats!

Aaaaaaaand there it is yet another draw (18 this season?) that will likely condemn us to the playoffs.... Which we definitely won't win as this lot can't seem to hack being under pressure.

O lawd!
