We've sold 3,000 (I've just got the last one) of the 4,000 allocation.  If you decide to go there will be 1,000 for sale at the gates tomorrow night.

Thought it was about 3k now, so a few hundred pay at the gate, and we'll outsing them easily !

Does anybody think Warnock will play tomorrow?

Collins and Baker are out, Luke young is missing so needs must.

Can't see it - I thought he might have played against Blackburn but neither he or Beye are any where near the squad. Think they'll see out their time in the stiffs unless Ged sees a change in their attitude.  Wouldn't be surprised to see Delph there again - or he may bring Herd in and move Clark to left back.  Bit risky against the likes of Tevez, Dzeco and Balotelli though

We're going to do it like they do on the Discover Channel.
1-4 Villa.

Reading at home is the prize. We beat them away at the same stage last season and with a mere Carew. Beat City and the trophy is ours, eff off Small Heath, the trophy is ours.

We will definitely give them a better game than the debacle over Xmas. With Reading winning tonight, I'm convinced tomorrow nights winner is Wembley bound.

We need to get the first goal to have a chance and it's going to take a big performance from the experienced lads on a par with the 1-0 win at the Villa.

Head says we will get turned over 2-0, heart is saying it's our year.

Worried about the defence. Is Luke young anywhere near ready?

This is the biggest game of the season for me. I believe we can do it.

How many of the 3000 sold will be on official coaches do you reckon ?
Have the opportunity to drive up from S Wales now but dont know wether to do the last bit from VP on the coaches ?
Is it pretty much a trouble free zone up there and what is the parking like if i do decide to drive ?

I don't think Houllier will change his shape and Agbonlahor will come in as he does a good job defensively down the left. Friedel, Walker, Dunne, Clark, Delph, Downing, Petrov, Reo Coker, Agbonlahor, Young, Heskey

Absolutely not.  City away is one of the roughest in the country.
