We've been waiting three years to pull out a good draw and Everton or Chelsea will be fantastic. Off the pitch it means about a million pounds for us. On the pitch it's a great opportunity for my young players to test themselves against Premiership opposition.
"Philip John" ""Phil"" "Parkinson" is an English Association football/football coach (sport)/manager and former player who currently manages Bradford City A.F.C./Bradford City.
He is the first ever manager to take an English fourth-tier league club (Football League Two's Bradford City) to the final of a major cup competition at Wembley, where they finished runners-up in the 2013 Football League Cup Final/Football League Cup in 2013.

The last thing I said to them before the game was to ruffle a few feathers and let Chelsea know they have been in a game. I think it was their intentions to keep those lads rested for Wednesday. The fact that they brought them on indicated how well we had done.
We have been pretty lucky with the injuries. Apart from Marino Keith and Stephen Hunt, who have been out long-term, we've done okay so far.
We've overachieved simply by staying in this division. We budget to go out in the first round and now we're in the fifth round.
Doncaster played very well. They started like a team who knew they had to win. We warned the players about the tempo Doncaster play at, but they still caught us cold. I thought they played the conditions better than us in the first half.
