The darks .

Yet more racism

[jd82]

Players surrounding the ref, missiles, pitch invasion, pitch invader, pyrotechnics. The darks days of football are back.

[Davezk]

Given I went up to Bradford for the original match, hope I can get tickets to Wembley.

[tulip]

Well done Reading, excellent performance delivered as requested.

[seanboyd_2]

I thought both sets of fans were excellent at times and quieter at others us more so but not by a lot.

Pitch invader was stupid, but he made up for it doing summersaults in the the box whilst waiting to be caught.

Pitch invasion understandable... it's our biggest single result for 88 years. Couple of thou or so went on in the end. Certainly bests the arse off the last one. Twat of a tango still tackling people when there's hundreds on the pitch.

LWJ or RL?

Need to wrap Mackie up in cotton wool till the semi, he is in such a rich vein of form, we must do our best to secure him at the end of his loan spell, energetic, enthusiastic full of drive, we are now seeing him at his best now he is fully fit.

Does that mean tickets go on sale before the other semi-final is decided? Surely TV companies will want to know who is playimng whom before deciding who to show and the day

Don't think that will make a whole lot of difference to be honest. Certainly in terms of travelling logistics for both the games it won't so I imagine we'll know later this week what the dates will be.

Because they're on the telly though it won't be 3pm Saturday, more likely 5.30pm

[paultheroyal]

Lol

[Stranded]

Logically given Arsenal and us are both relatively local to Wembley, I would expect it to be the Sunday game with a likely 4pm kick off.

As a result, it will be 5.30pm Saturday.

Think it will rest with the BBC, if they want to risk waiting on Liverpool beating Blackburn or guarantee a "big club" in their semi final and just go for our match.

[wingnut]

As the other semi could be Aston Villa vs Liverpool, I think the Beeb will opt to show that one at 5.30 on Saturday meaning that we'll be on Sunday.

[Snowball]

I want to kill whoever came up with the sea of scarves and band idea. It's so artificial.

Yeah, I just hate those Celtic and Liverpool plastics
when they sing "You'll Never Walk Alone"
and the stands are a sea of colour

You want to murder them? Bit harsh.

[Snowball]

Congratulations! You deserve it. Out played and out classed tonight. Oh! And that was a red card but get it right, "dirty Portugese bastard".

North Portugal
