    I know that the Wembley turf & stage atmosphere is gonna be lapped up for certain by our "confidence players". 👍
    All I want is for Leeds to win a big final game on a big stage. Just once. Hasn't happened since 1972, 52 years ago. Feels like a lifetime. Oh, wait, it is a lifetime.

    Since 1972 Leeds have been in the following Finals:
    1973 FA Cup final Lost to Sunderland 0-1
    1973 Cup Winners Cup Final
    Lost to Milan 0-1
    1975 Champions Cup Final
    Lost to Bayern 0-2
    1996 League Cup Final Lost to Villa 0-3
    2006 playoff final lost to Watford 0-3
    2008 playoff final lost to Doncaster 0 -1
    Not one goal scored.
    Losses to Sunderland, Watford (1st goal) and Doncaster were lost by a goal from a corner.

    Before might be a struggle but possibly afterwards (assuming we win)

    I assume we can just ignore that ridiculous target entry time stated on the ticket? According to mine, I would need to be in the ground 2 hours before KO.

    You'd have to have been this side of the world on 5 occasions at least in order to qualify for tickets, I'd admire that level of commitment
