I never thought I would see us at Wembley, so it was a fantastic day for me!

Agreed... And it wasn't just the once....

Thankyou for all you did for the club... It means if I ever have children I can dream of moments like I had with my old man in 08.

One of the last of the traditional FA Cup Finals.
These days they seem to stick it on at funny times and dates.

Greatest day out of all time for me.

Who can forget Katharine Jenkins puffing out her chest to sing for the Taffs; those little flags we were all given; the surprise and delight that Pedro had been picked against the odds; Kanu's open goal miss; the horses and police forming little 'gates' to control crowd flow where they turned end-on to allow us through then sideways to stop us; the good-natured banter with the Cardiff fans who were doing the Ayatollah head slap thing; the tears of joy at the final whistle; and, of course, Sol lifting the Cup...
Stop looking for solutions to symptoms and start identifying the disease.

It was a great day and the banter between the fans was great until they got the two announcers from each club and Cardiffs bloke starting billing it as the battle between England and Wales. To be fair some of the Cardiff fans booed him for it lol

That would be a lovely dream - I hope it happens for you.
