Sunderland showed nothing going forwards for 120 minutes and we still manage to lose - the penalties were probably the worst I have ever seen

On the plus side, maybe it saved us a battering from City in the final :no


I was thinking the same thing. Talk about the rise and fall of a team. I'm not even disappointed as we saw this coming several years ago.

I see no sign of the league cup final on any of the terrestrial channels, so I presume it's on Sky, or the other what'sit one.

I can't even find the kick off time on the BBC teletext, unless I'm looking in the wrong place

pity really, I quite fancied watching that.

Still........ why would anyone want a showpiece sporting event to be watched by 10 million people, when it can just as easily be watched by about 300,000

My game plan for Sunderland (because I feel it's the only chance they have) is to score early, get a Man C player sent off, and grind out a 1-0 result

they got the first bit right, can they do the rest.

pity Suarez isn't playing.... he could have taught the Sunderland boys how to instigate a sending off.

A few teams like Spurs, Everton and Man U will be pleased with the turnaround.

I don't think thats disrespectful to Bradford at all..I think there was a lot of people who didn't really appreciate Swansea winning a cup because the final was against a L2 side ( conveniently ignoring beating Chelsea in the Semis ), and thats all he was referencing.

Pure arrogance, it's just a shame Man City didn't win by a greater margin.
