Ingham visited Wembley with his team-mates at the weekend

York City goalkeeper Michael Ingham said he has been inspired for the FA Trophy final by his trip to Wembley.

The 28-year-old has already visited the London stadium ahead of the game against Stevenage on Saturday.

The Northern Ireland man told BBC Radio York: "Just driving up to it, if that doesn't inspire you then nothing will.

"When the Trophy comes around every year it should always inspire people. To say you've played in a stadium like this should always live with you."

He continued: "I didn't get the opportunity so far to do it with my country. I've played at the Giants Stadium in New York and that's another impressive stadium.

"But hopefully I've got another six or seven years left in the game and hopefully this won't be the last.

"Some people would say it's all about the memories at the end of the day but I'm not thinking about coming here and getting beat.

"I'm thinking about coming here and lifting the trophy. I didn't want to go anywhere near the trophy because the first time I want to put my hands on it is when I lift it."
