I will watch the cup final today but the hurt won't go away.
We had a golden opportunity to be there today.
I think it will be a long time before the draw gods look so kindly upon us again.
Beating the Blades would have seen us back at Wembley, and with a bit of luck we could have beaten Hull.
But as usual we were kicked in the teeth.
Gutted of SE14.

1. Watford (H) 0-0 - Denied a clear penalty in the later stages, no way Watford were scoring that day. +2pts
2. Fulham (H) 2-2 - That ridiculous last minite goal by fulham from a free kick 10yrds ahead. +2pts
3. Everton (A) 1-2 - We had a goal given offside in the 80th? or so minute. +1pt
39 points would've kept us up. Whether we'd have stayed up the following season I don't know, but we would've had a hell of alot more money from parachute payments if we had gone down the following season.
On an unrelated note, 1/2 the teams from that season are not in the prem anymore! Couldn't believe it when I noticed it!
Oh well...
