Coventry City manager Mark Robins cannot wait for their FA Cup semi final.

The Championship side take on Manchester United at Wembley on Sunday for a spot in the final in May.

While Robins is aware that his team are underdogs, the former United player is thrilled at his club getting to play in such an important game.

As quoted by Coventry's club website, Robins said: "I'm excited. It's a brilliant opportunity for everyone and there's a lot of excitement around the City and it's the first time we've been in the semi-final since 1987. It's not a normal occasion for us, for Manchester United its normal for them.

They have some England internationals and other internationals who have played at Wembley and for them it's an expectation and for their supporters, so for us its slightly different, although we've been four times in the last seven years.

We've had an experience of Wembley, varying levels of success, other than last year it's been very positive, and we look forward to this weekend. We know the challenge and there's no doubt that's huge, majorly significant, but we're looking forward to it."
