So many memories of FA Cup Final day being played on a Saturday at 3pm,with blazing sunshine and heat, with a packed stadium of excited fans and children in awe.
Today's will be very different to the above, but I absolutely love the gesture and written statement from the Leicester chairman to the season ticket holders released a few days ago. Good luck to the Fox's |

I am one of the lucky ones and will be there this afternoon.
Up the Chels!
And yes 5:15 is rubbish, as is semi finals at Wembley.
I miss the old days of 3 channel tv coverage, where right now they would have been reporting from hotels, and then going on the coach.
Just shows how life has changed.

Unfortunately it’s lost it’s allure for me. I Used to love sitting down at midday and watching the whole build up on Grandstand, it used to be a special day, the only live game that was ever on, and the showpiece event, last game of the season. Far to much live football on these days, it’s at 5pm, and on a day when there are other matches, some televised, and the season hadn’t even finished.
Sad. |

Thank you.
I am looking forward to seeing old friends for sure.
I was fortunate to see two games in December before Tier 4 lockdown stopped games.
Will be great to hear proper noise and not the pumped in crowds.

CFC since 1973.
Football has lost its heart and soul over the last few years, players that couldn’t care less, VAR(utter bollocks).
ESL just proves that the working man/woman is thought less of now than ever and “OUR” clubs don’t care about us!!
I’ve spent thousands travelling home and away in Europe and this how we are treated.....
Non league football is where our hard earned money needs to be spent. Come on Weymouth. |

As VAR decisions go it wasn’t really that close.. I called it on first glance….
I think we have seen one of the great FA cup goals.. and one of the great FA cup saves!
And to have crowds back! 6000 fans from each side makes a hell of a difference! |

Having those fans made watching it on TV gave me a immense feeling. So happy to see that goal too. |

Agreed...I've certainly missed the football choir when watching games. |
