    I'm doing something similar and am meeting them at the wetherspoons next to Baker Street first. I doubt think there is anywhere in Wembley that fits the bill and they are coming through London anyway.

    Probably doesnt help you much like.

    Wembley holds 90 odd thousand. Our home gates are about 17k home fans. Man city about 50k. No chance to sell out. Just pay on the gate.

    It's odd, this whole week I've just been thinking about the build-up to the game, and not all that much about the game (compared with the quarters and semis where I was bricking it all week), mix of nerves in that we need to be spot on, one slip could be fatal, and pure excitement in that we are huge underdogs with nothing to lose! Come on the boys!

    Sorry, but Nick Wright is a club legend for what he achieved in promotion, but when he played in the Prem he was woefully out of his depth. Like Ken Sema on mogadons.

    About to head off to Wembley. Taking the early price in the Green Man. Hopefully they will be

    Today will be a good day , today is our today .
    COME ON YOU ORNSSSSSSSSSS"...........

    Take away their offside goals and dodgy penalties and they wouldn't even be in the final. We might have already got a result against them this season too.

    We can do this.

    My 83 year old dad had booked a holiday back to Cyprus ages ago.

    As soon as we won the semi, my football hating mum, recognised immediately that this was more important. Tickets to Cyprus in the bin. Tickets to Wembley bought.

    Cyprus will be there next week but Watford will likely only win the cup once in his lifetime.

    Yep, terrible bad luck. I'm not gonna be happy when they are bored of each other and divorced within a year.

    I barely remember him playing. Thought injury effectively ruled him out. Was never the same post injury before his early retirement.

    Agree re Wolves but reckon, despite European implications, Utd fans will still rather Watford won than City did the treble.

    Thought for the day "Don't get humiliated, please, Don't collapse, lose your heads, concede in the first minute or concede an equalizer/winner in the last minute, don't concede two goals within seconds of each other, don't get sent off, if city do win then make them earn it,. Oh and if we win then please show some dignity for the ........aw forget it, if we win go nuts.

    Nicky Wright made just one start and three substitute appearances in the league after his famous goal before he had to retire.

    Right. About to leave. Have a good day everyone. Looking forward to the day and the build up. Still not looking forward to the match BUT....

    ....today is my 17th wedding anniversary so should be a day of "romance" for me; of course, I have my priorities right and am deserting Mr HH with the kids and dogs to spend the day at Wembley. The "romance" of the FA Cup comes from the unexpected tales of the underdog beating the odds. So maybe that's where I will find my romance today.*

    *(Never let it be said that a Watford fan isn't capable of clutching at straws)
