The only time I’ve gone to Wembley/Cardiff with City and actually expected to win You can add the Carlisle game to that, never thought we wouldn't win.

Too many daytrippers I guess although that would’ve been the case today too. Day trippers yes (me) flat as a pancake?absolutely not. Incredible noise fron both fans Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Incredible noise fron both fans One of my regrets from that day was going for view over atmosphere. Sat in the top tier on the half way line watching lots of ants chase a pea around some grass whilst day trippers were glued to their phones around me. If I were to go again I'd be behind the gaol every time Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
