Quoted from Poojah
Hadn’t realised that this is Forest’s first trip to Wembley since the 1992 Rumbelows Cup final. We’ve been there 7 times in that period.

I digress slightly, because that cup final is one of the first games I can remember watching on the telly, being only 6 years old at the time. I remember it in particular because they had some bizarre 100m race between players of various teams before the game. Managed to dig it out on YouTube; anyone remember this?

Remember that fondly.  The winner John Williams got a move to top flight Coventry on the back of winning that sprint.  To this day I'm still stumped as to why the Town entry in the regional heats was none of other than the jet heeled.....yep, Murray Jones.  I can only guess Alan Buckley didn't see much value in the competition.  Bit finger in the air but I reckon back then we had an 18 man squad, Jones would have been the slowest with Paul Futcher and Steve Sherwood ahead of him.

Never knew Iffy Onuara was so fast.  Probably a fair assessment to say his legs had gone by the time he rocked up at Blundell Park 12 years later.

You just can't imagine football clubs signing up for that now can you?

Elliot Embleton starts for Sunderland in the League 1 play off final at Wembley

I have a feeling that it’ll suit him down to the ground ( excuse the pun )

Oh Embo, Embo, Embleton as my mates in the Upper used to sing when he was on loan with us

Could be 2 in 2 years for him. Hope not though, hope to see Sunderland's bad playoff run continue.

Embo scores a 25 yarder (although a 25 yarder that Tommy Forecast would've saved!)

Shambles from Stockdale.

Football isn’t played on paper etc but this Sunderland side is crazy strong for League One. They are all over Wycombe.

… but come on the Wanderers.

A shrewd signing by Jolley really
