Hopefully Tuesday will see the recent tough defensive outfit turn up at West Ham and also a new signing up front or somewhere to give us some added grit and/ or creativity.

My first away trip outside of the local area. The view from the away end was terrible but it was a great performance despite Steve Sims doing his best to even things up for Bradford.

That thought did occur to me as we were having a pint after Saturday's game.

I refuse to die until I see us win it.

Knowing my luck I'll probably have a fatal heart attack 3 minutes into 4 minutes of time added on with us leading the Final.

I felt that the draw was the worst we could have possibly had and a beatable lower division side could have seen us with a morale enhancing win that was never going to happen on Saturday.
