Been touched upon briefly in other threads, but how awesome were our fans today!?
How did it feel to be in the thick of it, for those who were there? Had the hairs on my neck up at times!

Absolutely Brighty!
Pity it's over, but fun while it lasted.
All focus on Burnley on Friday from now on.

Very noisy. I also noticed several empty seats in the Chelsea side before the match had finished! We were off it, first half. Much better second - but their play acting ruined it as a spectacle.
But it also allowed them to break our rhythm. Them & City are welcome to each other. They'll both be at it. Haaland (who didn't react when he was headbutted) needs to come home!

The fans were fantastic today. And, as said above, a fair few empty seats in the Cheski end. Will the final be known as, "the time waiting final" with two of the finest exponents competing?

I didn't manage to get tickets, which is frustrating as I live so close - I can see Wembley in the distance with a view about 30 seconds from my house!
I bumped into a friend on Friday evening who's a Chelsea fan, and he said at that point they had not come close to selling their full allocation and had he remembered he would have got me one in the Chelsea end. It's sad; I would have taken it. I've sat carefully in away ends in London many, many times and been careful not to antagonise home fans.
Unfortunately it's the only way I've managed to get to many games in London. Our Wembley curse continues, but I think Farke did a nice job of adjusting at halftime for more threat.
I do wish Stach had been fit enough to start, or at least come on for Ao earlier, who had one of his weakest games for a while. Let's beat Burnley and confirm survival!

Fantastic day out. Amazing atmosphere at The Green Man. ? Leeds fans were amazing on the walk to the ground and in the stadium. Leeds sadly continued their Wembley drought, but I would not have missed it for the world.
Now, let's beat Burnley.
