FA Cup 2010/11

[Bully]

Shitty win 1-0.
first silverware in 30 years for this rubbish club.
Still in our shadow as on the night they finally win something we go out and claim a far bigger prize to piss on their parade.
We will have two cups on our motorcade in a fortnights time!!!!!!

they might buy there way into the champ league spot and take yours for all we know

Now I know I had had a few but in the second half of the FA Cup did I see the Man City supporters with arms linked and backs to the play bouncing up and down , what's thats all about.

Then again perhaps it never happened

[Bully]

it happens. It something the supporters are doing. Im sure one of the other fellas on here will confirm the correct reason why but no you werent that drunk yes they do that all the time

It started after an away Europa tie in Poland

[stampy]

how come the cup final wasnt a stand alone match this year?

The season started later so the EPL finished later i believe.
Also with wembley hosting CL final in fortnight there was no available spare weekend.
Think the EPL Started late due to world cup

[johntheclaret]

Nah. Skysports decided as they didn't have the FACup they would rain on the FA's parade and have EPL playing instead. The fact United won the title that day was an added bonus for them.

I keep tell you, sky sports governs English football in England

[Jim05]

That may be the case with skysports but was the cup early this season or EPL late?
I thought the epl always finished 2nd weekend of may and the cup was always around 21st,22nd and that left CL to last week in May

It's irrelevant mate. They could have played all the EPL games until Sunday. But that would have meant less revenue as as it wad they got to show live games over both days

Yeah was extremely poor form.
Would of made EPL much more exciting too. West Ham knew they were stuffed at start of play, if all games were played on sunday it would have been more thrilling.
I bet you if chelsea had beaten us last week their game would have been pushed forward to go head to head with united.
The only good thing is City's cup win got relegated a few pages in papers and media to focus on uniteds win

All 4:00 kick off's which makes that about 12:30 or 1:00 am for you guys if my maths is right
