Final fantasies for Brad and Curtis

Congratulations to Brad Inman, who - unlike any of our first team - will get the opportunity to strut his stuff in a club competition at Wembley this season. His Crewe side made it through to the final of the Johnstone's Paint Trophy last night at managerless Coventry's expense - though they came close to throwing it all away in spectacular fashion, conceding twice in injury time (including a calamitous own goal) and ending up clinging on for a 3-2 aggregate victory. Their opponents at Wembley will be League 2 outfit Southend, who overcame Leyton Orient in the other semi-final.

Our other Aussie youngster was already lined up to make an appearance on the Wembley turf, of course, with Curtis Good's Bradford taking on Swansea in the League Cup Final on Sunday. Best of luck, lad.
