We need to get our scoring done early. A despite their two wins recently, they're bottom of the table and an early sucker punch should shatter their confidence. B McAleny and Martinez not playing means we'll have few attacking options on the bench. Maybe Rothwell. Don't want to be chasing a game late on.
We SHOULD win comfortably. If score early, even more comfortably. But I have a nagging sense of concern. This is their whole season. Their players, their fans (40k+ fans is absolutely unbelievable), even the whole club, which is otherwise going down the shitter. They will be SO up for it, whereas our players have looked a bit apathetic recently I feel.
Class tells, though. I'm so excited to see Marv on that massive wembley pitch. He's gonna have so much space. Lunny I think will thrive, too, and will finally get the runout at Wembley he so richly deserves. Maguire is the perennial big game player, loves putting away free kicks when he's televised, so can he see him getting at least one.
4-0 Oxford (Maguire, Marv, Hemmings, Dunks)

Hoping I be wearing a smile at the final whistle!
Definitely, string vest, sandals with socks and budgie smugglers gear as it looks like being a tad warm!! As an aside, does anyone know if Henry's going to Wembley this time around?

This game is set up nicely for kane Hemmings. Perhaps he will show us all what he is truly capable of on the biggest stage! A hatrick for KH. 3-0.

I think we win pretty easily we have a lot more class than Coventry silence the 40 odd thousand early with a rendition of your going down with the Swindon!!oh and poachers goal by hemmings, free kick by the man himself Maguire. A few tasty tackles put in by ledson followed by a quickfire double from Johnson 4nil to the yellows crowd 74,321

I think we'll win quite handsomely. Hmm, let's go with 3-1. No, 4-1. Really looking forward to the day. During the entire England game last week all I could think of was how good it will be to see a sea of yellow at Wembley again. Others may feel differently but I have no intention of mocking Cov fans for their plight. I have nothing against them and they've been dealt a shitty hand, so I'll save my singing voice for something else; much rather focus on us and cheering on our lads than trying to wind up opposition fans. That could just be my (usually) kind-natured self, though. Hope everyone has a safe journey tomorrow.

Here's hoping for a great game Coventry get there goal that they crave and we hit 4 in reply. Really don't want to lose, last year I said it wouldn't bother me who won as long as we played well. When we lost I was gutted. 74,765 with the yellow army creating an amazing atmosphere . COYY

Oxford 3-1 Coventry Coventry are bottom of the league and they are missing both 1st choice centre backs. Kane Hemmings is bound to score as its a cup game. Marvin will score a goal that is identical to the strike vs bolton the only difference is it goes top bins. Phil Edwards will find space in the box and head it in from front post. Think we'll give a pen away from trying to be to cute at the back. Honestly don't care how we win as long as we get to see Lundstram lift the trophy!

Spending the day in Macau for some gambling before watching the televised match in the evening (9.30pm kick off, this side of the orb).
Now where did I put those lucky pants?!?

Big game, big win (4-2 with Maguire 2, Lunny and Hall) big att.(75989 and 30222 Yellows fans with god knows how many Coventry fans) big protest from Their fans about their owners. You just know the ref is going to try to get noticed, don't you! Eastwood will be sporting his new tattoo, after going to 'Tattoo Fixers'. Gone will be his 'Jesus saves'.......tatt, replaced by: 'Better stopper than Durex'. Come Monday, he'll be back to the tattoo place. Dunks will go to head the ball, but miss and dislocate his neck. Our keeper will go to collect a cross, but mis-time the catch and lob the ball into his own goal - no, wait; that was Ryan bloody Clarke, in 2010. An Oxford fan will be so drunk, he won't remember anything about the game - hang on, that was me in 1986. Shit - my crystal ball is going back in time, not forward! A 59 year old prostitute will run onto the playing area and throw a great big smacker on Maguire's face, before being dragged away by the fuzz (not a pretty sight!) So there's your bloody dog on the pitch! After the game, Skarz will drop the trophy onto the floor and put a massive dent in it. We will be given a bill for £100,000 to repair it, thus nullifying our prize money. Next season, the rules will change again, for this competition. The Premier league will be allowed to field their full-strength teams and we will only be allowed to field eight players in our lower-division teams. Next season, the final will be held at Accrington Stanley's ground and the competition will be sponsored by Tampax Tampons (insert jokes here please.............) That just about does it for me. Come on you Yellows.

The BBC match preview says Marvin Johnson will be assessed before the game: www.bbc.com/sport/football/39404886That's the first I've heard of a potential problem for him. Hopefully they've got it wrong.

Hopefully they've got it wrong. Sky Sports said Johnson was rated 50-50 after suffering a knock against Bury. Maguire was also due to be assessed. Let's hope they're both okay for tomorrow.
