Sheffield United’s FA Cup hero Tommy Doyle faces Wembley heartache after the Blades were drawn against the on-loan midfielder’s parent club Manchester City in the semi-finals.The 21-year-old would have been hoping to follow in the footsteps of his grandfathers Mike Doyle and Glyn Pardoe by playing at the national stadium after firing the Blades into the last four with a stunning injury-time strike in the thrilling 3-2 win against Blackburn.But the semi-final draw was not kind, pairing Sheffield United with City, a tie for which under the competition’s rules for loan players Doyle and fellow loanee James McAtee will be ineligible.Sheffield United’s trip to Wembley is supplementing a Premier League promotion charge - they lie second in the Championship table - while Manchester City were ruthless in dispatching leaders Burnley 6-0 on Saturday.And there was another one-sided scoreline as Brighton ended Grimsby’s fairy-tale with a decisive 5-0 victory over League Two’s 15th-placed side to set up a last-four tie with Manchester United.
