So proud of city yesterday, absolutely no shame in losing in a penalty shoot out lottery!

But what the F**k does John Bishop think he was doing running out of the corner in front of our block (130) gloating in front of us when liverpool scored their second? He deserves everything he got thrown at him. Scouse t**t!!!

Thinks he can get away with it just because he's a celebrity. Shouldn't he have a banning order for encroaching on to the pitch anyone of us would have if we had done what he did!!!

I've always thought his comedy is overrated.

My mate was right by there and said bishop getting dogs abuse before and during the game, you know the old saying "If yer big enough to give it then be big enough to take it"

I was with John when this happened and I'd just like to point out what actually went on because its easy for people to get the wrong idea and its best to nip misperceptions in the bud straight away.

The whole thing with the Kuyt goal was a farce, we never wanted to be down the Cardiff end at all, we'd been watching the rest of the game quite happily from the Liverpool end but because of John's sportsrelief commitments it was vital he was ready to leave the stadium during the second half of extra time so he could get the flight to Paris and that happened to be where his bike was waiting. Believe me, we pointed out how bloody stupid it was asking us to be down there but the idea was that we'd watch the game from there, have a nice goodbye moment with John when he had to leave and it'd be happy days.

Obviously whoever organised that isn't a Football fan. It was incredible naive, but it was perhaps unfortunate that Kuyt
scored just as we came out, Football gets your emotions going anytime but during a tight cup final we all just went a bit ecstatic, I can honestly say I when myself and my family were celebrating in that corner we were totally oblivious to what was around us, we'd just scored in extra time in a cup final. I could have been anywhere, I wasn't sparing any thought whatseoever to my surroundings.

Hold nothing against the Cardiff fans in general, some went much too far but Football inspires strong passions and if the same had happened down the Liverpool end I am sure there would have been idiots there too. In the end of the day the initial fault lies with the BBC for putting us down there.

I hope those saying that we 'deserved all we got' reconsider their opinions because my 13 year old cousin was there at his first cup final and all he was doing was supporting his team. I think its idiotic that people were throwing stuff at us. But like I said, we should never ever have been down in that corner and I can thoroughly understand the anger that caused.

In general thought the Cardiff fans were top, we had a good laugh with them in the other corner before the game, and met loads who were sound before the match outside the ground. Just wanted to point out that this wasn't John getting 'too big for his boots' or thinking he can do what he wants, he's not that sort of character, we were forced into an uncomfortable situation and passions took hold for both ourselves and the Cardiff fans there. Wish Cardiff City all the best, hopefully you can get promotion this season. I thought in general the Final was a great day out for everybody and both clubs will benefit from it massively over the coming seasons.

Heard Bishop say the same thing on talksport earlier. It sounds like you were in the wrong place at the wrong time. Unfortunately in the heat of the moment we all get a bit carried away. Cheers for your kind words about CCFC. Fingers crossed we'll be joining you in the top flight nxt yr.

I thought bishop was brilliant when he was on the Beeb in the pre-match build up.

They were saying he looked good and he just fobbed it off as make-up and told the interviewer he didn't seriously think he was at wembley, it was just a big green screen behind him :lol:

Was wondering what the hell you were doing there, i thought you came out to gloat at Kuyt scoring, was obviously wrong then, seems a lot of our fans thought the same thing. Agree though was a stupid idea by the BBC and as for the stewards etc at the stadium they have not got a clue what they are doing either.I also did not see any objects thrown but am not doubting your words just saying what i didnt see, John and i had a few words though and he did give it back as good as he got , but under the circumstances i understand why. Its obvious that this situation should and could have been avoided and the goal certainly did not help matters, but credit to you for coming on and clearing up the actual events and i apologise to John to, and i will be at his show in Cardiff in September to. :ayatollah:
