Is it on Saturday?

As it seems theres been a media blackout(apart from the City site)

Been looking all over the internet for it but only found one article and that was about Panty leaving

Same again as in 2011. FA Cup only matters if the Scum or Chelsea are in the final as far as the media are concerned.
 
Just got the programme from WH Smiths. There's a nice bit about how we met in the division 2 play-off semi final and an interview with Costel.

Excited for the final now!

I have to think that on paper, with City playing with full concentration and commitment, City should win it.

That said, Wigan players (fringe or ever present) are playing for contracts, their future (think of the Final as a global shop window), and for pride. They have alot of players who give their all, wear their club jersey with pride and rise to big games. They're in good form too. Are City?

I think it'll be a cracker of a game.

I cannot wait.

City last 6: WWLWDW

Wigan last 6: WLLDWL

The first game in each run was the semi-final, we beat Chelsea they beat Millwall. After that they've taken 4/15 points from 5 league games, we've taken 11/15.

We might not be battering teams 5-0 or playing fantastic football at the moment but we're in much better form than Wigan.

We should be too strong for Wigan. Our players are playing for their places for next season, or should be, so I expect a quality performance and plenty of flowing attacking football.

Wigan are a good footballing team but their concentration will be on the league and their last result will have taken its toll on them.

Just hope we take our shooting boots.
 
It's quite incredible that we have not thrased anyone this season apart from the Villa 5 Nil which makes this final rather worrying.

This will be no different to 95% of the games this season, we will make Wigan look like Brazil and cling on for a 1 nil victory.<br /><br />-- May 9th, 2013, 8:08 pm --<br /><br />
