    Some may remember that when we were heading for Wembley last month I pointed out the following:

    Our first visit to Wembley was 2000

    Our next visit was 8 years later, in 2008

    Our next visit was 8 years later, in 2016

    Then I said that we could be back there in 8 weeks time

    We are! Spooky eh?:eek:

    All it needs to complete the sequence is for Conor Hourihane, our number 8, to score the winner

    I would. It's written in some ancient book, a thousand years old.

    And so it will come to pass.....
