If there is one thing - one thing - you can say that Villa are historically good at, it's penalty shootouts.  When was the last time we lost one?

But the match: yeeuch, that looked like Lambertball for a lot of the time.  We do seem to be too easily put off our game when we are in these lower league grounds with noisy atmospheres.

This final is going to be massive, more so after that, Leeds will have a really hard game tomorrow night, all in all we did it, Wembley here we come.

Dross, utter dross, but winning dross and that's  all that counts.

They tried to shithouse their way to to the final but you always run the risk of bookings by doing it and the red killed them. The first 2 penalties they took looked like you'd expect from a team that was knackered from chasing us for the last 45 minutes.

My heart. My fucking heart!

Worst performance for months. But fuck it, it's behind us now and if we turn up at Wembley, we can do this.

And as an admittedly petty bonus, we've made sure the dirty cheating stripeys stay in this tinpot division for another season. The shithouses.

No doubt Radio WM will award the Olbiyun the moral victory.
They've already done so!  :D

Hideous game but on the whole we've done very well to be one game away from promotion... again.

Posted on the match thread I hated penalty shoot-outs - unless they're against Tranmere. Or Inter. Add fucktheAlbion to the list!

Good lord. We were pretty awful, and we’re through. It’s added about 20 years to my life, but we’re through. Come on!

Hopefully that's the bad performance out of the way.  Just under a fortnight to get our shit together because we can really do without another Wembley no-show.
