I was at your victory over Leeds great game won at the death. We just hope to do the same. Thanks for your messages, we will do our best and hope to bring it back to our city
The cup is made better to watch with players like kelly he was my MOM today really well deserved, Leeds will just bore out a result at Wembley like last year. Never thought I'd say this but I hope they don't. Best of luck to kr in the final for my kr Herbert mates!

Rovers fully deserve their first day out at a major Cup Final since Wham were still on the go, however the ingrained habit of a lifetime means I'll shall be sat in Wembley on 29th August cheering for a Leeds victory.
Great performance from them today though, especially for a team who supposedly can't tackle. Congrats to our nearest & dearest.
Wouldn't expect anything else, I was cheering Wigan and Leeds in your last finals.

fair play to the rovers, thoroughly deserved. Obviously wanted them to lose, but they have won by perseverance and skill. I wish all my rovers friends and family all the best for the final and to enjoy it.

Whilst I tend not to engage in the vitriolic hatred towards Rovers that many do, I still hope that they get absolutely hammerhead and humiliated at Wembley. The reason for this is that if they win many of their fans will put more effort into shoving it in our faces than celebrating their own team's achievement. I've never understood that mentality. So though it pains me to say it. Come on Leeds!
