The highly unofficial and barely legal FA Cup Final match thread

[The TonkerNational Legend]

The Cup Final, kick-off at tea time AGAIN.......stuff 3 o'clock, stuff whole millennia of tradition, stuff Doctor Who! It's outrageous - the next thing you know, they'll be singing funeral dirges before the match!


Anybody know who's playing?

[Arkay DubyaGlobal Superstar]

Well, if it's at Wembley then I assume Cardiff must be involved

It used to be a big deal when it was the only live game ever on TV.
Watch the build up from midday, etc.

I can't even remember who won it last year.

Wigan vs someone else I believe

[Tyrion TannisterGlobal Superstar]

To be fair, given the choice between a Man City v Wigan cup final or Aston Villa V Chelsea, there can only ever be one choice -

Watching paint dry.

It was Chelsea. Couldn't tell you who they played mind. Liverpool I think, I remember Andy Carroll coming on and causing havoc.

Malky and Laudrup are the analysts.
Personally I think Malky should be in Cardiff for the Development final!

That is very, very true.....speaks volumes about the man's priorities........

well he was in london yesterday for a meeting with simon lim and vinnie tan re preparation for premier league transfer targets/organization etc, but agree he should be in cardiff. maybe a follow on meeting with bill kenwright who happens to live in london.

He is. Don't you know these things are pre recorded then spliced together to suit what's going on on the pitch.

You're getting mixed up with the X-Files.....

That's what the matrix wants but there are a small minority who can see the truth for what it is. The rebrand for instance was deliberately conceived so as to not give an idea of what VT has mapped out for us. The vision is too much for mere mortals to get their heads around so they have to be very slowly introduced to the unbelievable glories that await us. Our global exposure will soon be greater than David Backham's and the Queen's combined.

Don't know what everyone else thinks but I've found it to be an enjoyable final so far. Wigan will pay for the missed chances later though.

[The TonkerNational Legend]

Wigan have had the better chances, but haven't got the quality to make them count. You always feel that when City come forward, they're likely to score. Good game though, a lot better than the Brighton-Palace bore-fest last night.

[R-DONOCaptain of Country]

Any chance we can poach McManaman if/when Wigan go down.
