I woke up this morning from a really vivid dream! I was in a dingy bookies with Paul McGrath and he was putting on a £59 bet on the horses when I gave him two 50p pieces and said "Paul, stick a bet on for me, £1 on Barnsley to win the FA Cup"! I'm not a betting man (£1 e/w on the Grand National!) but when I told Mrs. 'Chopper' she said "do it" so I will! Come on Barnsley!

I reckon that it will be a Barnsley v WBA final and regardless who wins,just the fact that an outside top flight team has reached the final again goes to show how much more beleive in such a great traditional cup the lower league clubs have compared to Premiership clubs..
![]() The big league clubs have and are degrading the great history of this cup and its about time they started treating this trophy with the respect it deserves... ![]() So come on you lower league clubs carry on showing the big league clubs what this cup competition is really about and how to respect its historical traditions.. ![]() |

I hope Barnsley win the cup and it's a good game but my only concern would be whether or not the final will be sold-out. Would any combination of the four semi-finalists generate a capacity crowd?

WBA and Cardiff would generate a fair size crowd as they always seem to have plenty follow at league games home and away,But reckon the biggest crowd would be Pompey v WBA. And with it being the Cup final something all four clubs haven't been in for years and lot of flyby supporters will come out of the woodwork for this one. The real problem i can see is the fact that both semis and final are being played at Wembley,so for two sets of fans its going to be abit much on the pocket so the actual semis may suffer where fans will save their money for the final.But i have heard that the semi tickets will be sold at discount prices so to have both Wembley games with high levels of fans attending. |

This semi final I think that we will sell our allocation of tickets, that is 30,000, and if we want more, I do believe that there is another 3,000 if we want them, so as the outsider of four, we wont do bad for selling our tickets.
