Shelvey set for Wembley
Jonjo Shelvey will be at Wembley today to watch his boyhood club face the team he played for on loan for a place in the Barclays Premier League.
Shelvey grew up supporting West Ham and would wait outside their training ground to get autographs from players like Joe Cole..
However, he played a key part in helping their opponents Blackpool reach the play-offs, scoring six goals in 10 games during a loan spell before Christmas. This included a first professional hat-trick at Leeds United.
Shelvey revealed on Twitter that he would be at Wembley for the final but has not yet told his followers who he will be supporting...
Wembley today!! Buzzing for it!!
