Pre match nerves starting already. Could potentially the best, or worst day ever.

If we lose I hope I don't get picked out by the cameras, blubbing.

Just gutted I can't be there for this...I absolutely knew once I realised that the date coincided with my annual leave that I couldn't go, and therefore that it was a stonewall certainty that we would get to Wembley this year!

Hope everyone there has a fabulous day and that it is topped off by the right result.

As for the game...just too close to call. I would start Grabban and leave jerome for coming off the bench later - I think Grabban is harder to play against if you are a defender, and Boro's central defence are well set to deal with big Cam.

I will be watching it in a bar somewhere hot and sunny! COYY!

Nothing more than a formality. Just a nice day out to cross the "i's" and dot the "t's" on our return to the Prem.

I hope so.

I work with a few Boro fans, if we lose I am seriously considering finding a new job.

The significance of this has game has only just begun to really sink in for me. I'm 30 years old, and the last time we played at Wembley I was a newborn baby. I hope we'll end up there again at a cup final or something in the near future, but it isn't inconceivable that this chance won't come along again for another 30 years.

In a strange sort of way isn't it great we didn't get automatic promotion? It's like a Europa League final for a team that didn't progress in the Champions League.

Only if we win.

The play-off's is definitely the best way to go up should it happen. Especially for us as it meant that we were able to beat our nearest rivals in the semi's. Add that to a trip to Wembley, and should you win seeing your team lift the trophy there, it's undoubtedly better than just getting automatic promotion.

Only problem is, it increases the chances of my heart exploding by about 400 percent!
