Still a job to do and with painful memories of 2002, I'm not getting too cocky just yet but, encapsulated in it's own moment, yesterday was a special away day following CCFC.
Cardiff played with a confidence that stood them above their opponents but a late surge by Leicester should be a reminder to City that this tie is far from over.
Focus turns to the City Ground, Nottingham on Tuesday when Forest look to overturn a 2 - 1 deficit at home to Blackpool.
City and Leicester will kick off on Wednesday knowing who they will face at Wembley on May 22nd.
Hugely exciting times.
