Sheff Wednesday v Sunderland

[ElectroClaret]

Think Owls might just turn this around tonight, only one down. Home crowd might lift em.

[elwaclaret]

Hope you are right, be nice to see Sheffield Wednesday moving forward after so many difficult years.

Record aggregate attendance for playoffs

[tiger76]

That just underlines how big both these clubs really are, even well slumming in League 1 they can attract huge crowds.

Be nice for BPF and Wednesday to make the final, that way whoever wins there will be a Burnley link to the promoted club.

[distortiondave]

you wouldn't have thought a game involving Villa would have a low aggregate attendance, so one can only assume it's those **** poor middlesbrough fans bringing the average down.

As if Middlesbrough weren't already middling enough.

[Guller Bull]

It’s feisty- wouldn’t be surprised to see a couple of sending offs. Ref has let a lot go so far.

Sunderland lucky to be at 0-0 at half time
Great shout for Wednesday penalty

[Ric_C]

Really poor game so far. Needs a goal

[ElectroClaret]

Yeah, thought they'd put on a better show than it's been so far. Certainly needs a goal.

[beddie]

It mentions a sell out of 34,000. I thought Hillsbrough had a capacity of near 40,000?

[Beagle]

Good ball in and good goal. 1-1 on aggregate.

[Vegas Claret]

class from Bannon

[aclaretinstevenage]

Keeper bottled that for the goal!

Parts of the stadium shut off at the moment ‘on safety grounds’ apparently, normal capacity definitely going on 40,000.

[Vegas Claret]

didn't he just, almost pulled his arms out of the way

[dougcollins]

Excellent goal. What a ball that was.

[burnmark]

You can tell Hinchcliffe used to play for Wednesday!

[NottsClaret]

Barry Bannan looks miles above League One standard, really stands out among the dross.

[wilks_bfc]

One more for Sunderland’s late goal tally

[ElectroClaret]

Looks like Sunderland have won it.

[Vegas Claret]

you'd kick Mendez-lang out of the club for that lack of defending, doesn't track his man that barely trots back when he could have easily doubled up and stopped the cross

[aclaretinstevenage]

Wycombe will have a field day with Sunderland's goalkeeper, Sam Vokes to score the winner at Wembley anyone?

Re: the winner.
Hinchcliffe had only said earlier that Jack Clarke would always go onto his stronger right foot, as he burst into the box. Well he only went and skinned him on the outside and put that delicious cross in with his left peg.
If I was the away coach I would be very unhappy with the placements of the coaches quadrant. Moore is on the halfway line and Neil is just outside his penalty area. 75yds from his defence in the first half, how is he supposed to get his message to them?

Sheffield Wednesday were relegated on the final day of last season, but yes Sunderland have been down there for 4 seasons.
