Yep, that's what I was getting at but you said it better. It's been shown a lot over the weekend but if we win the Champions League then that Gundogan goal is going to be replayed so many times in the future that it'll make it impossible for them to ever forget it.Actually if we go on to win the treble it could become like the Aguero goal played over and over for years to come
Imagine how painful that would be for the RB
Yes you could only hear the city fans :)Out of interest what was the crowd noise view from those watching on tv? Inside the ground I thought we were magnificent and the rags were shite but is that how it came over on tv? Also I couldn’t imagine all our fans leaving on the final whistle (thousands of rags actually left before the final whistle as far as I could see) without properly acknowledging our players
The referee was Tierney, not Taylor.The only referee only to ever be influenced by crowd pressure, and that was us who were the victims.
Yesterday's victory felt like justice seeing it was Taylor again. The FA are trying to make him the next Battenburg, what with all these finals he keeps getting only to do like the aforementioned to do such a poor job.
Of course we sold our tickets. We could have sold double. The section behind the bench is corporate/sponsors and mixed.I'm still buzzing!
To beat them in the F.A. Cup Final alone is fucking brilliant, to beat them to clinch the double is fucking incredible! Get the fuck in!
What a team!
What a start and what a goal by Gundo, but as the game went on i thought we looked rusty, especially first half. We should've won by more really but i'm glad the players got that game in their legs and hopefully we'll have a fully fit side going into next weekend.
I haven't read back, but on TV there was a section of rags on our side of the ground, right next to our bench, how come?
Did we not sell all our tickets? because i have mates who couldn't get them!
Agree with you about the "improvement" as I don't see any tactically and let's be honest several teams have had poor seasons. I think next season will be a massive test especially with the demands of Champion's League football.... fingers crossed!I thought they were Shite to be honest and had an average season. I don’t see much improvement at all. I can’t see any patterns at all. It’s just very basic football. Miles behind us. The scoreline absolutely flattered them.
To be fair, most of them live there...so Many red cnuts still milling around in London today,did my best but just got pissed. What a day it was, now Istanbul!!!
And completely obvious where the blame lies, esp since they had half an hour head start on us after the final whistle.
i loved that you ‘Only live round the corner’ chant the City fans were chanting to all the reds still milling around the streets after the game.To be fair, most of them live there...
Yes, and because there was a significance in that it was the 100th final at Wembley (the second time we've appeared in the 100th final!), it will be remembered as a landmark final.Fastest goal in FA Cup history and it came in the first ever all Manchester final, you literally couldn't write it.
Also, because it was so recent, it's hard to fully appreciate just how iconic that goal will become as time passes. Even more so if we go on to complete the treble as it will forever be associated with a historic season.
Ah, so that's where they were. We were out in and around Preston and Lancaster and couldn't find a single one. :)so Many red cnuts still milling around in London today,did my best but just got pissed. What a day it was, now Istanbul!!!
No chance it was the 100th final it only opened 100 years ago and there were years without the FA Cup and then Cardiff.Yes, and because there was a significance in that it was the 100th final at Wembley (the second time we've appeared in the 100th final!), it will be remembered as a landmark final.
They're not going to forget this for years, whether they want to or not! Only bad thing (in this case anyway) is it wasn't on Sky, bad in that Sky tend to try and pretend the event never existed if it's on a different channel.
One brain cell Alice.
It’s the 100th anniversary of the first Wembley final.Yes, and because there was a significance in that it was the 100th final at Wembley (the second time we've appeared in the 100th final!), it will be remembered as a landmark final.

Sorry, yes that's what I meant to say. Long day....It’s the 100th anniversary of the first Wembley final.
Not true, as the first one was in 1923, but the FA Cup wasn’t competed for during World War II, then for the duration of the rebuilding of the stadium, it was held at the Millennium Stadium in Cardiff.100th final played at Wembley aka Etihad south.
it did bounce a couple of times so shouldve been chalked off as not clean strike
While I don’t condone supporters throwing objects at players, in fact I am disgusted by such actions, but what the fuck were the rags doing celebrating the successful penalty in front of the City fans?
It was the crassest, most idiotic action that they could have taken.
Just when you think the rags can’t get any stupider, they prove you wrong, time after time.
