With the exception of Portsmouth we were the underdog in all those games. There is no hoodo or jinx at work here. We were predictably beaten by better teams.
This Saturday is different. I honestly believe we're better than United. I expect us to win.
Let’s hope you’re the lucky charm then!Living overseas for many years, I haven't been to a semi-final since 1991. But back in Blighty briefly and have a ticket for this one.
No replays.
One thing is for sure. If it goes to pens we will lose.
Can only think of the 84 final when we won a shootout, have we ever won another one?
Can’t think of any, although don’t remember being involved in that many. I remember losing a couple of shootouts at WHL and of course against Utd in the league cup final.
Plus losing in a shootout is just a Spurs thing to do.
Won one when Ossis was manager think it was Peterborough He got sacked soon afterCan only think of the 84 final when we won a shootout, have we ever won another one?
Well, we won the last one against Hull. I seem to recall Walker scoring. The others make for poor reading;

Funny, but I have no recollection of losing to Basel in a shootout. Thought we lost on agrregate. Must have blanked it out of my mind.
Is that the tie with the ridiculous miss where Soldado and Chadli were through on goal with no defenders and only the keeper to beat?
I think that might have been Fiorentina a couple of seasons later.
Basel was 2-2 home and away. Dempsey scored twice over there.
Like you I have no recollection of penalties.
We won't be in the final.
