Bearing in mind we have dropped a division since last year and this City side this season are one of the best teams in the world.
With this rotation malarkey thing too, on paper it wasn’t our strongest side.
Hands up to Uwe and a big thank you too for putting some huge smiles on our faces this season.
Wembley again is just unbelievable against a fantastic team like Arsenal. We are the history makers.
I feel this was our biggest ever cup upset. Just a shame more of us were denied the opportunity to have seen the game live.
Thanks Uwe for everything you have done so far Sir.City have strengthened considerably since last season and have arguably a much stronger squad than last season.
We on the other hand have cut back drastically on last season, wages wise, and on paper have a weaker team, but overall we may have a stronger squad of players.
What we have regained under Rosler though is the belief that we can beat anyone, the whole squad works their bollocks off for each and we have learned how to defend and soak up pressure.
Overall I tend to agree with you though, this was probably a bigger upset than the victory in May, and the prize again is another trip to Wembley, the home of football and of Wigan Athletic.Bearing in mind we have dropped a division since last year and this City side this season are one of the best teams in the world.

Thanks Uwe for everything you have done so far Sir.According to the bookies yes…just looked at Oddschecker they had us 22/1 today (not 18/1). Odds like that in football are overturned once in 30 years…I remember Israel winning in France in 1994 WC qualifiers at 20/1!
We look more like a Premier League team every time we play at the moment. It’s not sour grapes, but barring a couple of defensive cock ups…we would still be a PL team!

Just got back.
The 20.35 from Piccadilly.
Interesting journey back.Kirsty learned a whole new vocabulary.
Fantastic performance today.Much better than Wembley.
What a great battling 2nd half performance that was. :cheer: :cheer:
Did we not play at wembley in some other tournament ?Runcorn has it right if you include his addition of the Gillingham play-off final, although strictly speaking we have yet to play Arsenal.

Good decision to delay your journey back. Piccadilly Station at 7 o’clock was like an evacuation zone.
Don’t forget the Carling Cup Final which would have been at Wembley if they hadn’t knocked it down. Surely that should count in a way.

I thought we played City, not Utd
Seriously though, the railways cant cope with the number of people using them. eg What time is the last train back from Euston on 13th April?
