Too true mate, I said this last night at the game, how spurs hadn't actually won in the qf or sf to get to the final. Apparently the rule was in the plays until 1999 I think when it was changed because Sheepshanks, the Ipswich chairman, wanted it changed because they had lost in the plays twice in a few years because of it.
