FA Cup Final Opportunity - Serving Military Only

[51Chappie]

A work colleague of mine is the Officer In Command (OIC) for the military flag bearing at Wembley. I spoke with him about the opportunity for City fans to carry the flags before the Cup Final. On the pitch during the anthems etc.

Unfortunately, this is only open to serving personnel.

If available the week leading to the final, then please let me know via DM. I believe there are 2 days of rehearsal Wednesday & Thursday and then the final.

Clearly you’ll get free entry, a decent seat along with food and drink.

Great opportunity for any serving blues.

Nothing unfortunate about it only being eligible to serving personnel.
Some things are best left to those with military training and discipline. I know a few less suitable characters who wouldn’t mind getting involved with this and they’d only end up embarrassing themselves and City!

Good luck to anyone that gets the chance to do this - great opportunity to have a once in a lifetime experience.

My lad did this at the LC final against the throbbers in 2018 though the RAF.

He missed the first 15 mins of the game, just something to bear in mind.

Gundo won't be playing- it might be OK to miss the very start

You can miss the first half if Pep names a starting line up like yesterday.
