Got to all of them apart from Carlisle away - couldn't get a ticket. Pitch invader at end of the semi final - great memories but typically losing to WBA after stuffing them 6 - 2 at the Hawthornes in the league a few weeks earlier.

I saw that film, didn't like the ending much.

...yep, I was at Wembley that day too. We battered the Baggies at the Hawthorns a few weeks earlier but it wasn’t to be. As Brian Labone said, it’s rare to beat a team 3 times in a season.
