Blackburn's Appearance In Cup Semi-final Is

Story
DENNIS HART
-The Cinderella story come true. That describes the appearance in tomorrow's semi-final at Hillsbrough, of Blackburn Rovers. Four months ago Blackburn had played 16 Second Division matches and all they had to show for those games was six points. They were well and truly bottom of the table, six points behind the next club.
It was beyond the wildest dreams of their most rabid supporter that they would reach the semi-final of the FA Cup, and even have an outside chance of promotion. But that is what has happened.
