Blade here. Not to gloat. Just want to comment on your fans.
All 5400 were a class act, especially considering the KO time. Great numbers and great noise.
After the game we bumped into a fair few on Bramall Lane (once we'd got around the SYP wall of steel) and to a man they were wishing us well.
I really hope you stay up this season. You're a proper football club with a quality fan base. You did CAFC proud.

PS - this took some writing as somewhat pissed after being in pub from 9am and just got in. Wife ain't happy - but 1st I wanted to do was comment on your following. Class

I thought our support was good in numbers but a bit patchy in noise.
Different songs at the same times.
Win the cup n rub it in the noses of the so called massives
All the best for the best round
Or would you prefer concentrate on t'league and go for t'play-offs?
Proper ground, genuine home fans, great atmosphere, met old acquaintances on the coach, spoke to the splendid KM at the services, a nice day out with my son, right result to a real cup tie, due reward for a respected opponent manager, great weather and - absolutely gutted !!
As others say, hope you make it to the final and into Europe.
You weren't just a shit Sheffield Wednesday.
Seriously though, enjoy your trip to wembley and good luck.
I am feeling miserable, but a tiny part knows well how happy and chipper Blades fans feel, and I hope I can feel that too one day.
Judging by my experience today Sheffield United are class, thanks Hallamshire for sparing us a thought, but you should forget about us now and enjoy these times, you deserve it.
