They're going to summon the "spirit of '99" tonight. The one that led them to victory over Clown Lee's awful side. Tinpot or what?

Tickets are available on the door for Walsall fans? Yeah. That makes sense... Surprised WMP have allowed that.

So how many off molmix are going tonight. Anyone know ticket sales.

I'll be there and looking forward to it.

Went to our last game in this competition in 1989 when we were holders. A hugely disappointing exit 0-2 to Torquay after winning the first leg away. Over 22,000 were packed into the only two sides of the ground that were open at that time (John Ireland and South Bank) with the few Torquay fans in a corner of the John Ireland.

The game took place just three days after the Hillsbrough tragedy and I recall there was some debate about whether the game should have been postponed. Understandably the atmosphere at the ground before the game was strangely sombre and there wasn't the buzz that would normally accompany a game with a Wembley final up for grabs. It just didn't seem to be quite appropriate to be playing a game when the football community was still in a state of shock at the appalling loss of lives.

Had we won we would have played Bolton in the final.

The texts and emails are now beginning to come in from a few gobby Walsall "fans" that I know. Strange that, they were Man Utd/Liverpool/Chelsea fans last season!

Bless them.

Wow. I thought they were both coming on the Happy Sunshine Care in the Community bus.
