Strange that the results haven't been posted here following the Blades' epic extra-time triumph last night. I wonder if GreyDesk has been overwhelmed by excitement, smiley - ale or both? smiley - bigeyes

You're right it is a shame. I know that we can rise to meet the challenge of the Leeds, Liverpools and Arsenals of this world for the one of game, but meeting them week after week I fear will be one step too far for us smiley - sadface
