League Cup Semi Final - Bradford City

[Richard E]

The one Sims handball was very harsh as it seemed to hit his chest. For the other one he put his arm up and hit it for no apparent reason as it was sailing over his head. It was my first away game outside of the immediate area and it was a great win as they were top of the Division at the time, it was when I started to believe we were on the way back.

[Dave Summers]

The games was memorable as BOTH debutants scored .

No they didn't.

Sums them up really, from a Bradford forum. And really, half of Birmingham?

You've drawn the scurvy-ridden, 6-toed inbreds from the north of Birmingham in the League Cup semi.

Please, please, please, please, please, please, please, please, please, please, please, please, please, please, please, please, please, please, please, please stop them getting to Wembley.

Just to let you know, half of Birmingham will be praying for you to absolutely batter them.

Good luck.

PS. Do you think you have any chance of actually beating them?

[Mazrim]

Half of Birmingham... love it.
More like less than a tenth of Birmingham with more Man Utd fans in this city than dogshitters.
Predictably sad from those worthless scumbags though.

When we win the second leg, I want to re-inact carrying Garry Thompson off the pitch like I did on Easter Monday '88 if it can be arranged?

[Phil from the upper holte]

The reason I wanted Cheski was because I'd rather get knocked out in the semi than face more Wembley heartache against them.

I think we have more chance of beating them on a one off neutral game than over two legs but I expect them to put out their strongest team- I agree defeat at Wembley to them would leave a bitter taste but victory would be so sweet and apt revenge for 2000.

[berneboy]

Am I right in thinking sky will show both legs live of each semi?

Yes. Correct. All four matches on Sky

People booking hotels in London for the final already? How anyone can show that much arrogance and disrespect towards Bradford is beyond me

Not really,because were due to play Arsenal that weekend anyway. It's called covering all options

I got the draw I wanted I said on here the other day I wanted Bradford let's hope we can beat them now.

Is it arrogance and disrespect to plan for a victory over two legs against a fourth division side? I don't think so

Hence my train being booked last month.  Booked an advance train in preperation of Arsenal.

[davisa]

90% of people booking these hotels would not have been attending Arsenal away.

When we won it in '94, it was the first time in 17 years...
