After watching the game again without shakes and heart fluctuations i do believe pudil and hunt where completly shit Hunt more so and im wondering if we give Palmer yet another chance  what did astound me was Helan he had a stormer  but we all know that he will now play shit his next 2 games   he certainley won his place on the bench for the final again i would love to see semi on the bench aswell as he to could come in Handy when Hutch gets booked if we are 3 goals up

Id play the same team though with Hutch stepping in for Lopez who i dont think we can afford with the way Hull bully midfield and Joao will be a better option tan Nuhui from the bench this time as that was a terrible feffing header from bob trouble is Joao doesnt seem to want to step up his game ? Hirsty for me next year should be introduced and give Joao something to think about ? afterall there is only a few years difference

Still feel as rough as xxxx and i cant believe how much energy that weekend sapped form my old bones ? i dont know how you do it Charlie

Thanks Dubai, really hoping to avoid having to do that, but it could be an option!! I have emailed the club with regards to requiring a Client ID to purchase tickets when they reach General Sale next Tuesday. I don't have an ID with the club so hoping they can either give me one or they don't need them at that point!! Still hanging off booking flights until I am assured a ticket, flying our of Cabada is still half the price of flying out of the US, so that's where I am heading if I get a ticket!!

I took a flyer and signed me and my old man for membership after the 2 nil win on Friday. It was either a very smart move or 60 quid up the swanny. I did the same with flights trains etc. a calculated gamble. Good luck with tickets. If I hear of any going ill let you know. I think you can get a client ID by just registering on the ticket site.

Alright Chaps, just popped in to say well done in reaching the final.

90 Minutes From the PL

Had a great trip to Brighton. We might not have played that great but we are now just 90 minutes from the PL.

Arrived nice & early so had lunch on the beach next to the pier and had a little nap in the sun. Amazing how good cheese & tuna crepes followed by an ice cream taste in the sun. Felt confident as I have for the last couple of months. We then had a quick drink in Lewes before taking the train to the ground (transport included in ticket price).

There is a lot Wednesday could learn from Brighton off the pitch. Firstly, the walkway round the ground has an exhibition of the Club's "Magic Moments" which must inspire the home fans as well as being interesting to visiting fans. However the big one is how they use the jumbo screens & music to build up the crowd. By kick off, they had cranked up the atmosphere and the home players responded.

The opening half was almost a constant threat on the Wednesday goal. CC went 442 and it left us hopelessly exposed in CM. Lopez & Lee were non-existent and Bannan was marginalised in the left wing. Lees & Loovens had no shield so were exposed to runners all half while both full backs struggled and FF & Hooper barely saw the ball.

Knockaert hit the post and a Brighton goal seemed inevitable & duly came when Dunk converted From Bruno's flick. Somehow we equalised against the run of play when Wallace's cross was missed by everyone and it nestled in the corner of the net. It was all hands to the pumps and we held out to half time with Loovens & Lees outstanding with a series of blocks and Westwood doing a magnificent job between the sticks.

Hutchinson replaced Lopez at half time and we pretty much coasted through the second half. There were a few moments that raised the pulse with harsh bookings for Wednesday players while Brighton (Kayal in particular) seemed to be able to commit assaults with minimal punishment. It was really down to poor refereeing than anything more sinister.

Quite a few players played below par, particularly in the first half, but I feel that CC's formation didn't help several of them.

Westwood - 9
Hunt - 6
Lees - 8
Loovens - 8
Pudil - 6
Wallace - 7
Lopez - 4
Lee - 5
Bannan - 5
FF - 7
Hooper - 6

Glad to hear you had a good day on Monday, MS. And that you've got your tickets for the Final sorted.

How was the whole ticket buying process? No problems, I take it. Was there much of a queue on the web-site?

Hopefully getting mine and 4 others tomorrow as some of the ST holders didn't quite have enough priority points to get them today.
