People worrying about this palace team is it the same palace that shipped 5 to us 5 to Newcastle and drew 1-1 at Southampton. And let's get it right look at the stats v villa shots s.o t possession corners pass accuracy all in villa's favour a freak result and that against a villa team out on there feet.

They scored at Southampton? oh fuck that and the form-guide!
Just caught motd2 and I know spuds are pants but Palace could/should have realistically had 6 or 7. They started high speed+energy at ours until we got a grip, this Wembley game could be anything...
C'mon City, turn up sober and do the business!

I don't usually back against City, but I'm going to be pissed off spending a load of cash to go to Wembley to see them lose again. So I've put £60 on Palace at 100/30; if they win, I'll at least get most of my money back. If we win, I'll be delighted and the £60 just becomes part of the cost of going. (And with bet365 early payout if they go two goals up (again) and we turn it around I still win)

You'll be devastated if we lose in extra time or on penalties then lol, that's if the palace bet is for them to win in 90 mins.
 
WTF is the background colour of the FA Cup Final Mobile Pass that just dropped into my in-box.
Fluorescent fucking yellow.
You need Sunglasses to view it.

IMO Pep should have received more credit for stabilising City this season. He is playing tactics that contradict how he would like to play the game for the benefit of the team i.e., low-risk football.

This is what I think he might play but I wondered when Akanji returned as to whether O'Reilly might play further forward. If there is a surprise, I think it might be O'Reilly playing as a box-to-box midfielder. I suggested that for Southanpton but Pep didn't do it. Perhaps he doesn't want to show his hand to Palace, or perhaps it's too much of a change for a Cup Final.

-----------Ederson
Nunes--Dias--Gvardiol--O'Reilly
-----Kovacic--Bernardo
-------------Rico
Marmoush--Haaland--Grealish

Probably no more of a change than not playing a holding midfielder to link the defence and attack in a Champions League final IMO ;)
 
Usually when we’re in cup finals the team picks its fucking self. Now it doesn’t it could be fucking anyone, Pep could start fucking McAtee for all we know. I’d like to see:

Ederson
Nunes
Dias
Gvardiol
O’Reilly
Kovacic
Gundo
Kev (c)
Marmoush
Doku
Haaland

Mines also bright yellow. My ticket also doesnt have my name on it so not sure how those ID checks on a number of tickets will work

You are correct. I've just checked back to the two rag final tickets and there was no name on those either.

On a iPhone.. if you look at the Pass Details (under the three dots …) on the Reverse, it has Name, Supporter No, and Age Band
