Realised before KO that this would be my old man's last final as his failing mobility and dementia kick in more and more. Thankfully he finally got to see us lift the cup at Wembley with a somewhat bewildered smile on his face. Couldn't help a tear or two rolling down my cheek. He had taken me to 5 finals since the 80's so nice to return the favour with a victory!'" good for you well done.hope your dad was ableto enjoy his day.

| As a neutral on the day 'Abide with Me' still got to me. Then at the end watching all the raw emotion amongst all the Hull fans was great and brought back memories. Although Wigan have won at Wembley many times the 1985 final was special for me because at 27 I had never seen Wigan win live at Wembley and my dad had died just before final and so I was robbed of the special moment to share it with him. I was full of raw emotion that day. Then I had to wait until 2011 before I could share a Wembley win with my son.
I was hoping Hull would win to break the long wait at Wembley. You have a good team and nobody can say you didn't deserve the CC after beating Catalan, Saints, Wigan and Warrington. It looked as though it was slipping away when Wire scored their second try but when Gidley missed the conversion I immediately thought 'wouldn't it be special if Hull could score twice to win 12-10'. What a finish!

| Unashamedly. First me I've cried at Wembley since I was a boy 36 years ago.

| Grieving rovers fan here!
In all seriousness, reading threads like this is what makes sport in general and specifically rugby league such a fantastic thing.
I have a few die hard FC fans and I'm buzzing for them. The emotion of even getting to Wembley was amazing last year so to win it especially with the hoodoo I imagine is unreal for you guys.
It's why we do what we do. Salford on a Friday night to big days out home and away. Makes it all worthwhile doesn't it.
Enjoy your weekend folks!

| Was truly amazing, a dream of 25 years coming true and longer for some people. The looks on peoples faces around me when that hooter went is something I will never forget.
Never seen such togetherness from the FC crowd. Radford lifting the trophy was pretty special too.

| I cried, so did my daughter and also Mr Worm, and he doesn't even follow the rugby!
Wish my dad had been here to see it.

I know I am. Watched it back last night and there are things in that last 20 minutes I don't remember from the game due to my mental state at the time. Never felt anything quite like it in my life.
They talk about roller-coaster emotions but this last week is the first time I truly understand the feeling. I'm a born pessimist but kept feeling that somehow the fates were aligned and we would finally win. Then by 60 minutes I was back in a familiar pit of negativity as it looked like we would fall short yet again. Then that last 20 minutes with it's mixture of elation, disbelief, and outright terror for the last 6 minutes.
Unbelievable. Something I will carry with me for ever.

Absolutely this. Ecstasy then for a couple of seconds thinking Currie had scored, then he hadn't. Divine.

67329_1392756525.jpg Well you may throw your rock and hide your hand
Workin' in the dark against your fellow man
But as sure as God made black and white
What's down in the dark will be brought to the light:d7dc4b20b2c2dd7b76ac6eac29d5604e_67329.jpg |

| Just a tad honest and maybe a little this morning watching the replay . I've never felt so drained both physically and emotionally. Feel like I've gone a round with Connor McGregor coyh

Radford times his interchanges to have our best forwards on at the end and leverage our good fitness levels.
