    Never stopped me dreaming...
    Just wish my parents, who were both West Stand season ticket holders could've savoured this moment.
    But so, so proud of my home-town team today.

    Less rounds back then though. We have never made it to the 7th round before

    Obviously we would have done if there had been a 7th round back in 1910 or 1912 but there wasn't so to get to the semi finals now is arguably more of an acheivment than getting to the final back then.

    fair enough

    but that is like saying that Brizzle rovers have got further than us because they have been in more rounds than us</p>
