The sweetest cup win for me was 2011, beating Utd in the semi and announcing our return to winning ways.

Went to that semi v the rags with my lad but couldn't get a final ticket for love nor money! Last one I missed, though, been to them all since. Just home from Sunday's victory after a good night out celebrating.

It's only the first 3 wins I can't remember! Not sure if that's good or bad
