Read City captain Louis Carey's exclusive website blog, only on bcfc.co.uk and BBC Radio Bristol.

Day two of my weekly blog ahead of Wembley and it's Press Day!

Usually the press come down on Thursdays, but this week it's earlier because of our travelling arrangements to the final.

Everyone will be decked out in their suits for a photocall on the pitch and then we'll be speaking to all the local and national media.

I'm not sure too many will be going for special haircuts - I've still got my little beard, but I'll be shaving that off for the final itself.

I think our squad copes well with interviews and tells it like it is.

Training went really well yesterday and I feel really good. There's certainly a relaxed attitude in the squad, but also one of focus.

Fan Question: The bookies appear to be making Hull the favourites to win and ultimately gain promotion, will this inspire you to try and prove them wrong? Matt Price, Maidenhead.

Not really. Deep down we're not really bothered whatever the bookies say. We were written off at the start of the season and when we started well we were told the bubble will burst. Throughout the whole season we've been in the top six and even then we weren't favourites against Crystal Palace in the play-off semi-final. It really doesn't matter.

Fan Question: You seem like one of the jokers in the pack and Brian Wilson has really tall hair. Have you ever thought about cutting it when he's asleep? Beth Jones and the gang, Bristol.

He uses wax to make it so long, but when he's asleep the wax will have worn off - then it returns to its usual curly top state. It looks a bit like the old-fashioned Kevin Keegan perm. He always straightening his hair and if it was cut off he would be absolutely devastated.

Fan Question: Any of the lads showing some nerves? What's the biggest challenge you think you have to overcome? Rob Flower, Redland.

The biggest challenge will be coping with the atmosphere, the arena and everything around you. We can't let the fact that a win could make the club £60m affect us, we just have to concentrate on the football side of it like we have all season. As for nerves, I'm sure some are quietly nervous at the moment but the biggest time will be when we run out at the start of the game. Once you've been out there a couple of minutes the adrenalin kicks in and it's back to what we've been doing all season.

I'll write again tomorrow!
