'As soon as the draw was made, I was like, this is going to be absolute hell'.
A married couple have flown more than 3,000 miles together to attend the FA Cup semi-final at Wembley - only to sit at opposite ends of the stadium.
The sports journalist, who works for New York City Football Club, said: "I said I wished we'd recorded our reactions" when they realised the Blades would meet the Blues. "It's his first time seeing a match away from Bramall Lane, so it's going to be really special for him."She said: "Shaun was talking about getting a minibus that would have been full of Sheffield fans, so I said I'm not travelling with you because I'll get it in the neck.
Mr Littler, who works in financial recruitment, said they would meet up for a drink before the game, and again afterwards, but joked it would be a "long flight home" whichever side won.Talking about the game, he said: "Really, we've got no chance, maybe a slim chance if we are being realistic... but football is a game of 90 minutes, City have two tough games either side of us, so we will just have to see.
