How soon is now?
The FA Cup Final used to be a real event when I was younger, we'd get loads of food in, friends round and make a bit of a party out of it. I'm not even sure i'm going to watch it this year

I might watch it, but to be honest I doubt it. Really couldn't give a 
Likewise. Haven't watched one for several years now to be honest.

I used to love FA Cup final day, but I don't think I will watch it and I do hope Chelsea smash 12 past Portsmouth. Not that I like Chelsea in the slightest, but Portsmouth should not even be there.

I do, except it's strange.
I want Chels to win, having always been fond of them since the 70's.
However, I've got £20 on Por*s*ou*h to win the cup at 18/1 .

The "THEY HAVEN'T GOT A PENNY" bullshit will be unbearable if by some miracle Pompey do win it. Come on Chelsea

And for that reason: I'm in.
I am utterly fed up with hearing Avram Grant tell us for the millionth time how unfair everything is and how hard done by Pompey are. The self pitying tossers shouldn't even be in the competition given that they got there using players that aren't rightfully theirs. The same players who will be paid BONUSES for getting to Wembley while hundreds of creditors have to settle for a pathetic 20p in the pound.
Cheats never prosper? Clearly that is not the case. I hope Chelsea BATTER them.
Perhaps a game of Bullshit Bingo will be in order for viewers? Key phrases to look out for from the commentary team:
-"brave Pompey"
-"long suffering fans"
-"miracle worker Avram Grant"
-"against all the odds"
-"best fans in football"
-"John Portsmouth Football Club Westwood"
-"the neutrals' choice"
-"plucky underdogs"
-"they may be down but they're not out"
-"David against Goliath"
-"amazing support"
Wise words. Nope.Anybody care about it this year? I don't

I have watched all the recent cup finals but my interest is most definitely waning. I won't make an effort to watch this one but if I'm in I will put it on.
Gone are the days of the build up on telly starting early in the morning
I still have nightmares about the Man Utd Chelsea final a few years back though

We get one of these threads every year of how proud we are that we don't care about the F.A Cuo but you must care to bother starting a thread or posting on it.
The F.A Cup is a national institution of which we should be rightly proud and is the envy of the world. It will be shown in over 120 countries on Saturday with a global audience of over 100 million, so there are obviously a lot of people, myself included, who do give a f***.
Harsh.
Joe Cole?
Michael Essien?
Alex?
Ivanovic?
Malouda?
Cech?
All decent players, who have [thus far!] never done anything worthy of my hatred.
I hope Pompey lose 23-0
