WOOOO Cardiff through!
Cardiff vs. Blackpool, either way a new team for the EPL next year.
Awww so the old enemy gets to the play off finals.
If cardiff go up there fans will cause trouble trust me
havent fulham been resting their first 11 though? so that isnt really an excuse
Not long home, gutted the way it was lost, but was an amazing experience nonetheless.
Day didn't start off brilliantly, plane was delayed 45 minutes then we circled Hamburg for a further 30-40 minutes (don't forget it's only a 1hr10 or so minute flight), and went to the coach transfer to the stadium which ended up taking just over 90 minutes. We were meant to have about 6 1/2 hours free time before KO, but ended up ~2 hours.
The stadium is very nice, and the atmosphere was awesome.
REALLY gutted about how we lost it, although you could see how tired they were after the first half, it was just absolutely shattering to see them score that late. Zamora going off was definitely what changed the game. Shame Nevland's last game didn't end on a high note.
And getting back was even worse, EVERYONE turned up at the airport at about the same time (including Atletico), and had to wait to get through security, then to be told (for Fulham) that we'd just be put on a plane and go first come first served, however....zero planes left in that time, and we were waiting from about midnight GMT to about 6am when we got the flight back. Tired is not the word.
Awesome experience overall, though.
