All I know is my Dad supported GTFC all his life and never got chance to see his beloved team walk out and grace the pitch and fulfill the dream that is Wembley.
This will be my Forth time and when GTFC enter that pitch there will be a piece of me wishing my dad should have witnessed this.
Yes it may be less than half full but it matters not. I can say Yes i was there with my family and my team GTFC.
Sing loud and proud GTFC fans we are one it is our day to enjoy in the capital win or lose.
UP the FRIGGIN MARINERS!!!

My dad never got to see us play at wembley either, He did get to see two semi final games in the FA Cup in the 30's though, I bet he would have given up those two games to see us win at wembley.

am i right in thinking that one of those semi finals was at old trafford and that is still the record attendance for old trafford. i have mentioned this statistic to many plastic man utd fans, am i still correct or has it changes now that old trafford has been expanded greatley over the years. anyone confirm my theory?

Logistically and atmosphere wise maybe the ManCity place or OT would have been better for Grimsby and Wrexham. But who knew?
Whilst it pre-dates the demise of the FA Amateur Cup, the Trophy has inherited that bit of football's history since the pro-am distinction was dropped. That was hardly a tinpot cup. And from the off the Trophy Final has been played at Wembley (bar the period of its rebuilding).
So, to my mind, Wembey's the right place.

Still the case. Record attendance 76,962 (Wolverhampton Wanderers vs Grimsby Town, 25 March 1939)
