Cardiff boss eyes FA Cup final

Cardiff City boss David Jones has eyed an FA Cup final for his club. Cardiff take on fellow giant killers Barnsley in the semi final at the weekend. Jones hopes to emulate the successes of Cardiff City's side of 1927 who won the FA Cup.

David Jones said: "As a player I have played in semi-finals, in the FA Cup I lost one to Liverpool.

"In other competitions I have got through but in the FA Cup I have got to quarter-finals and semi-finals but never been to an FA Cup final which was a bit disappointing.

"I have played at Wembley on cup final day for Everton veterans against Manchester United veterans so I got a little taste that way.

"This is the furthest I've got and hopefully I can go one step further.

"It's just that this is a cup competition that everybody as a kid dreams about, playing at Wembley in the FA Cup, but we've still got one more stage to get through as we're still in the semi-finals."
