FA Cup Final

[m20gull]

My beloved proposed to me on Valentine's Day with a bunch of 12 red roses. We've booked the wedding for Cup Final day and I have had a load of negative comments from work colleagues. But I can't remember the last time I watched a cup final with any enthusiasm - when we picked the date I just thought "that's after the end of our season so that will be OK"

Am I alone in thinking the final has lost its magic?

I think that ever since the final has been in Cardiff it has lost more of its romance.

The competition itself has not, the final possibly has.

Liverpool vs Chelsea anyone?

Think I've only enjoyed one Cardiff FA Cup Final, when Liverpool came from behind to beat Arsenal 2-1.

My best final other than ours would have to be when Coventry won it 3-2, that was a cracker.

Cup Final always had a quiet dignity.
It didn't need all the "super-bowel" hype of flame-throwers, ticker-tape, smoke machines, fire-works and all sorts of other bollocks.

Sometimes, less is more...

I always use to look forward to watching the cup final but even tho have still watch them i don't really care what happns, i remeber the 2004 one and that i was more excited about getting a play-off ticket than mark mccammon playing in the cup final!
