This is our 18th League Cup semi-final appearance; as we look to make it through to the final for the ninth time, here's a look at our previous eight victorious semi-final outings...

1967/68 

Beat Huddersfield Town 6-3 on aggregate

We first made it to the semi-final in just the second year we entered the competition, in the 1967/68 season. 

We met Huddersfield Town, then a mid-table side in Division 2, and the other semi-final also featured a second-tier team in Derby County. Both ties went to form. We were at Highbury for the first leg, and goals from Bob McNab, John Radford and George Graham gave us a narrow advantage to take up north for the return match. 

Bertie Mee’s side scored three more at Leeds Road, with three more players – Jon Sammels, Jenkins and Frank McLintock – on the scoresheet to ensure a 3-1 win on the night and a 6-3 aggregate victory. 

We met Leeds United at Wembley Stadium – our first appearance in a cup final for 16 years. But we fell to a 1-0 defeat, earning Leeds their first trophy under Don Revie.

1968/69

Beat Tottenham Hotspur 2-1...
