We'll get there at some point in next five years if Emery is with us for all of that time so pretty relaxed.

It's a shame we don't take the league cup seriously anymore so already we're throwing away a realistic final appearance.

Doubt we'll get a better FA Cup run of draws for many years.

Only jealous seeing all the parades. What happened in 1996, trophy lift at the council house is always the main picture but did we do something at VP as that would be the demand nowadays with all clubs trying to outdo each other.

Vague recollection we had a homecoming parade after the disaster of the 2000 cup final for some reason.
