paultheroyalTop Flight Huddersfield's passing and movement is very good. If we face them they are going to be very dangerous.
I think both Wednesday and Huddersfield are a lot better than Fulham.
Our chance of winning the final is no more than 50/50. These teams are good.
Disagree, Fulham are far better. Little attacking threat from both teams

Would prefer that to both teams wearing their home shirts. Still can't believe we wore ours when swansea and Bolton wore their white shirts.
Everyone getta hi viz jacket out and let's make it a Sea of luminous yellow.

bobby1413 Is anyone else already nervous?
It's been bad enough in the run up to Fulham away/home. Now I've got 12 days of waiting to do

Stranded To be fair TF, their form nosedived before they were definitely in - after they beat us 1-0 they only took 17pts from 14 games (we took 25 over the same period) - yes you have to factor in changes but form can be hard to turn back on.
Games have been very tight between us, our win was a tough one even though they were down to 10 for an hour and they had to work hard for their win. IIRC we had a decent penalty shout at 0-0 turned down.
Really hard to call it - think the pitch at Wembley will suit both teams and can see it being a nervy 1-0 either way.
Didn't think either team yesterday had much of an attacking threat, Huddersfield's equaliser being an OG but one off games are hard to call. Hoping we can get on the front foot, get an early goal and settle in to controlling the game as we know we can.

Surprised by Sheffield Wednesday's lack of urgency (or belief) last night and really don't know if it would be better to have played them and all their "star" power and threat or a Huddersfield side that, like Reading, is very quiet, largely unknown but packed full of the same team ethic and hard work.
Let's hope this doesn't run to play off form though. Huddersfield have been in four previous play off finals and won three of them. In fact they've won every play off final that they've played at either Wembley or the Millennium Stadium. Compare that to Reading's 100% record of complete and utter misery in play off finals.
This one is going to be much harder than Fulham but whatever happens I hope it doesn't go down to a penalty shoot out.

NewCorkSeth Anybody else notice the commentator for the Hudd-Wed game mentioned a few times that Westwood was arguably the best keeper in the Championship? I know hes had a good season but does that not seem a stretch? No mention of Al-Habsi (statistically the best keeper this season) being a quality keeper during our match.
No Fixed Abode Huddersfield. So Ryan Dearnley can have his revenge when they beat you.

it's just something to say after a good save is made. The vast majority of people watching football on TV are not fans of the clubs involved and are hugely uninformed about those kind of details. For the 10% that WTF at the telly when they say that kind of thing they have 90% going 'hmm interesting, I will have to look out for him next season' etc and they take it on board as fact.
file it alongside the other completely irrelevant things in football
