FA Cup Final - Post Match Thread

[DavidWhitesUnderpants]

Anyone know what happened to the United countdown clock displaying the time since we last won a trophy ? Not 100% sure, but don't seem to recall seeing that for a while. Funny dat.

Elton John apparently had a pre-arranged concert in Copenhagen that was impossible to cancel and, therefore, could not be there to witness that performance, which I have to say rather takes the shine off the day for me.

Congratulation boys.

Enjoy the summer and hopefully next season will be even better :)

Hats off to the Watford fans.

Spot on. Absolute fantastic support. I told a few of them back to the car as much.

And to think we once had a team in which the half backs were Stan Horne and Roy Cheetham (one for the oldies, there).

To old for me :), though i can remember our striking hopes being pinned on lee peacock ;)

Apparently, they have given the goal to Jesus officially, not sure how going off the half time pics that the BBC showed, that cross section one of the posts and you could see the ball was only two thirds over the line.

Not that it matters but it is just an odd decision to me.

Showed freeze frame at the end and for me, it was definitely over the line from Jesus.

It will be a long long time til he sees that level in a final again..

Now Dalston is beckoning...

Lol, the thread fairies.

To be fair when it comes to Pep, most of Bills posts should be written in invisible digital ink so that they fuck off themselves after 5 mins to save him from further embarrassment ;-)

Seemingly it was donated to the National Football Museum. The fate of Wee Davy's Chosen One banner is less clear however.

That was some sacrifice

I massively hope someone filmed the end of that. Brilliant

I was looking at the results table because I was trying to disqualify some comment I saw about this season's place in history. The results are astonishing. We were in four competitions from the end of February on. We didn't drop a single fucking point for over three months! If we had lost or even tied a match.... in that last case Liverpool might have gone up on point differential. Some critics will point to the opponents in the cup runs... how could you possibly say that when you had to literally win 14 straight matches (including matches against Arsenal, Chelsea, the Spurs, and United?!) The FA Cup win has the be the cherry on top of one of the most amazing runs in football history. If it isn't given the proper place in football history because of cherry picked statistics, I think I will lose all faith in humanity.

Fcukin brilliant.

Hope the Jesus doubters had their opinions changed. Fresh as a daisy and raring to go.

This is some fookin animal football team.

jesus is great, still very young, just 22. most don't realize he has 44 goals in 99 games for us and loads of those appearances were very few late sub minutes.
he is a Brazilian international for a reason, and as aguero winds down, jesus will be sure to be our star, and a legend, for a long time.

Chappy mk2.

Quick question: who gets the assist for the 6th goal?

Beeb or BT pics?

Like I said at half time it showed it cross section as they do for did it cross the line and you could see it hadn't but not arsed really :)
