    There will be more than enough tickets for anybody wishing to attend the final should we get there.

    Need not even be a topic of discussion really.

    Don't think I said that. You said there was no demand and I pointed out I would go if it was open. Don't think i ever said they should open it or not. May be you should chill out

    Not been to a Bristol Street Motors game yet, so if I can't get my padded seat with far more leg room I'll not be attending the game either, plus I don't want to be a Jonah and bring the team bad luck, so it will be the sofa with my feet up with a beer or two.

    We've played well.

    Pleased with how that half went. Had a few chances and weren't afraid of having a shot. Going to need the same again second half to win it but they've shown they are capable. Well played, lads.

    What a match. Our team were brilliant never stopped. We played some classy football. Their goalie deserves mom he stopped everything.

    Now then city pick yourself up and scrape the mud off, play like that and you win more matches than you lose. Hope they are all alright for Saturday.

    That was probably the worst smash n grab I've ever seen. Only got ourselves to blame not taking our chances, could see it coming as the game went on

    Good display, Wycombe were woeful and extremely negative

    Really harsh comments on Smith. I though his movement off the defender was decent, giving us an alternative outlet than been direct, and he linked play well. Just disappointed he should have got something on that header from Gilleads cross, other than that he was a solid 7 for me - lead the line well in the absence of Cook and Young.

    Plat like last night Idle. The laws of averages dictate you win that game nearly every time if you play that well. The Sutton win would more than likely play out for a draw 9 times out of 10.

    The level of fluidity between the lines was outstanding. The mix of long and short passing had their midfield completely bamboozeled and just didn’t exist at times. I never thought having Smallwood and KMc on at the same time would work. Credit to the team and GA…….Terrific performance.

    With a bit of time to reflect, what a very good account of ourselves, especially when you consider some key players missing. Not taking chances is a bit of recurring issue for us but you can’t fault the endeavour of any of them last night. However, you can’t win if you can’t score.
    The acid test of the management team and squad is now the reaction from this display and disappointment. I still think it’s an outside chance of the play offs, but we do have a history of great run ins to qualify. Far from impossible.
    Bruised we may be today, but let’s hope they take some pride, desire and determination from last night. They certainly should do. We played a League 1 team off the park. On another day we would have cruised through. It wasn’t to be, but let’s not let a performance like that go to waste. Come on City!

    Since under 21s were allowed to participate I haven’t attended a single match in this competition even when I lived locally and it would have been hypocritical of me to attend last night.
    Of course I wanted the team to reach Wembley and then gone on to win it but I wouldn’t have attended. I fear though that the effort extended for this match with one day less recovery time along with the increased injury list will cost us in a more important game on Saturday

    To all staff behind the scenes you deserve a lot of
    praise for getting that game on.
    Fantastic effort reflected in a team performance to be proud of.
    Passing the ball on that quagmire must have been so difficult yet we achieved it.
    No body let us down last night we just couldn't get the ball past their keeper who was outstanding.
    Gutted feeling at the end but we all know the old saying football can be cruel and that was certainly the case last night.

    Wrong club pal. I’ll celebrate an excellent performance win, lose or draw…..and don’t need other supporters to tell me a good or bad performance when I see one.
    That’s the trouble with these Manchester types…a god given right to win every game , no matter how poor one plays. As I say wrong club.

    I might be going over the top here ;) but if Odour can keep this form going then we might have one of the best players in league two. I was watching him against Wycombe and the way two or three opposition players tried to tackle him and he still came away with the ball had me off my seat. What ever Alexander has done or said to the lad is working for now because he's totally unrecognisable to the player that would pass backwards or sideways and seemed lacking confidence to do things on the pitch.

    Despite the terrible season and crap happening on and off field, if you can make this game why wouldn’t you??

    It’s a semi final with the chance to end up in a Wembley final! Some of our fans were too young to remember the last time we were there - plus you never know when we might be in the situation again.

    Like or loath the competition or current state of club affairs, surely this is one game of the remainder this season to come together and get behind the club, in the hope there will be another game after it??!!

    I assume you went to Wembley the last 3 times we've been there, why would there be need to be any sort of priority with regards the selling of tickets, for whatever reason you seem to want to make a simple day out at Wembley into some kind of my **** is bigger than yours because you may have attended every round of the BSM Trophy, the stadium holds 90,000 there won't be a problem accommodating anyone who wants to go.

    No one who hasn't been to every home game this season should be allowed Wembley tickets.
