St Marco Posted 9 February, 2010 Share Posted 9 February, 2010 Not seen a thread so thought i would start one. Some might say that it is a mickey mouse cup. It is. But the only time i went to Wembley was in 1992 in the Zenith Data Systems Cup final. That was a Mickey mouse cup too. But the day out was fantastic and one which i will never forget. Clubs these days outside the pl only really have one chance of going to Wembley and that is in a playoff final. As a cup team this year we have done very well regardless of what happens on saturday. We have a real chance to win our 1st trophy since 1976. So thanks to those involved, well done, you did us proud. With all the negative threads on this board, lets try and keep this one positive at least please. COYR we are going to ******* Wembley!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

revolution saint Posted 9 February, 2010 Share Posted 9 February, 2010 Nice to see Cortese and Liebherr standing up and cheering the team about two minutes before the final whistle. I'm surprised a steward didn't turf them out for standing though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Huffton Posted 9 February, 2010 Share Posted 9 February, 2010 Had to laugh when the Northam stared to sing 'Markus give us a wave'. and you could see that he was totally oblivious to what was happening, despite the people sat in front of him trying to let him know. A lesson in football fan culture is needed I think! Also anyone who comes up with a song that fits Nicola Cortese in desreves a free season ticket.

Saintandy666 Posted 9 February, 2010 Share Posted 9 February, 2010 where do they sit? Markus Liebherr sits right above the clock. You can make him out from the Kingsland, he has a very distinctive look. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

St Landrew Posted 10 February, 2010 Share Posted 10 February, 2010 Are we actually going to play in the red & white this time..? In my lifetime, in every cup competition final we've played in the second strip. The FA Cup of 1976 and 2003, the League Cup of 1979, and even the ZDS in 1992. It's about time we played in our first colours. I suspect there's a realistic chance, this time: Us Carlisle United Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

West End Saint Posted 10 February, 2010 Share Posted 10 February, 2010 Good thread well done how good is it to be a Saint at the moment we are very lucky to have the owners manager & team we have got I am loving my football home & away cant wait for Saturday.The pressure is off now we are going to Wembley we can get into to Skates and have a right good go COYS. On the way home last nite we were saying if after the points deductions bad start admin ect if you were offered JPT final 5th round of the FA Cup against the Cod Snoggers and a outside chance of the play off's you would jump at it how far have we come I have to pinch myself so I know I am not dreaming we are being treated to a hell of a season.
