acording to the bbc write up, we're in the 'JP Trophy Northern area final.'

Before the Beeb go and correct their faux pas, and make you look like a twerp, I saw it too.

 

...Bartosz Bialkowski saved three spot-kicks as Southampton beat Norwich 6-5 in a sudden death penalty shoot-out to make the JP Trophy Northern area final...

 

Obviously, geographical knowledge is not a requirement for a BBC Sports researcher/reporter.

Nor knowing the difference between white, blond left sided defenders and black, shaven-headed right sided wingers, apparently. Though that was down to the PA announcer, who apparently assigned it to Harding (in line with the penalty spot at the time Waigo lashed home from inside the 6 yard box). It ended up all over the media, too. Kinda harsh on Papa, but fair enough if he's still nicking Lambert's crossbar header...

 

They were also pretty poor at identifying who exactly got booked online - their site at some point had Holt as having 2 yellows, when rumour has it Martin was booked twice. Then again there WERE two Martins playing...

 

Then again, it's the JPT, it'll probably be unchanged for years to come.

I'm sure SKY said that Dean Hammond took the 5th and 6th penalties last night.

Excellent away first leg, lets get a result and finish the job at st marys.

 

Pitch invasion to celebrate getting to wembley ;)

 

During or after the penalty shoot-out?

 

I've got a mental picture of some 45 year old, 20 stone, bloke throwing himself at Papa, leaving a Papa shaped dent in the pitch!

JPT, FA Vase etc finals are not included in those season tickets. The tickets will be split about 44/44, with 2k comps going to clubs round the country.

Just need the dates confirmed then! Should be looking to take 2000+ up there, not too far to go and for a pretty important game.

 

And am I right in saying Season Ticket holders will get 2 tickets each should we reach Wembely? I'm sure I remember reading somewhere if we got to a Cup final Season ticket holders would be rewarded. OR am I just making it up?
