FA Cup Final 15:00 17/5/2008

[Fulham Broadway 16,977]

Would like the underdog theme to continue in this competition, and see Hasselbaink score. Realistically it's Pompeys' to lose, and can only see it going one way.

But as the late Ally Mcleod said after Scotlands 1978 World Cup exit ''Football's strange''.

Would prefer Pompey to win it myself. There's this odd situation which has been around since forever but I find completely unintuitive: Cardiff and the other Welsh teams in our League do not answer to the English FA, ie the organisation that runs or allows competitions to run that those Welsh clubs take part in. That's just fundamentally flawed. This came to light when a Cardiff player committed a nasty tackle, straight red, and had it rescinded. If he didn't, he wouldn't have been able to play in the FA Cup Final. The Welsh FA rescinded it, not the English FA. Oh, and it shouldn't have been rescinded. If we can't get Mikel against United rescinded, well then this shouldn't have been either as it drew blood half way up the calf.

Both side's have former Chelsea lads in their line-ups and for me as much as i'd like to see Cardiff lift the cup for Jimmy, i'd rather see an English Cup competition won by an English side rather than a Welsh side so fingers crossed for Pompey tomorrow

yeah i'm rooting for Pompy as well - sorry to JFH

i would like an English team to win the biggest English cup

Come on Cardiff Underdog + Jimmy.

Hope pompey win (whole English thing and dont exactly like the welsh) but if Jimmy belts in an unstoppable 25 yard screamer to win it, i wont be dissappointed, saying that......2 teams i dont give a toss about so dont really care. I believe Purses tackle deserved to be recinded btw, it was just badly timed and it wasnt the 2 footed studs up challenge, it was just his shin taking down the other guy at speed. This whole welsh/english stuff is a disgrace tho. If they are in the English tournaments/league, they should be solely owned by the English FA, end of story. They are an English club, playing in wales. The whole thing honestly is a joke.

I am rooting for Cardiff, because they have had financial struggles this season and it would be wonderful to see them end the season with a cup.

Hmmm to watch on BBC or Sky..whose more annoying...hmmm

Want Pompy to win,Harrys so awww lalala.Rather we'd been in it lol but meh.

As long as its more entertaining then last years lol that wasnt so fun..till the end anyway

[terry26 6]

well pompy are on their way to winning it

JFH is off the field, Glen's not really having a good game, Lassana is running Cardiff ragged

[Laylabelle 9,407]

But David James is still having crazy moments so hmmm

Either way more intresting then last years final..2 goals this time!Ok only one of them counted but meh

And awww good on Pompy and hehehe they've got a repaired lid for it.

WELL DONE POMPY

I actually thought this game was fucking awful and last years was better. Good to see the English FA Cup staying in England, and down south too, not up fucking scummy north. I can handle that.
