Well, I think we did ourselves proud on Saturday! Wasn't quite sure how it was going to pan out after the set back of loosing to The Ref, I mean, The Blades during the week - but I think we gave Chelsea a good game and we did play fairly well I think - we certainly didn't just roll over and let Chelsea walk over us - if we did they could have scored more than 2. Their class shone through at times and the better team won on the day, but I don't think Chelsea went for it full tilt, I think it was a comfortable game for them (but not taking credit away from us).
The crowd again was fantastic and if there didn't have to be segregation and stuff (and the numbers were reported as they actually were on the day!!!) then I'm sure every actual seat in the house would have been sold! (except where ITV built that extra camera box under the control room in the Corporate/Away corner! (by the way, does anyone know - is that where they did the post and pre match presenting etc? - looked like it!)
I think the boys did the City proud and although I never really thought we'd beat Chelsea, I always hope we would play well against them and I think we did that. I know I'm clutching at straws here but I hope some (all?!?!) of the fans who turned up for Blackburn and Chelsea come back to the Ricoh for the League. I know the prospect of playing Darlington isn't the same but the atmosphere really was special for the last two stages of the cup and it would be AMAZING to see if like that again!
