United (N) | FA Cup Final | Post-Match Thread

[JASR]

Heard reports of people wearing half & half scarfs in the City end yesterday. In a derby?? Unthinkable, this. Did they get told to take the bloody things off, or even take themselves off?

There were about 3 wandering around the boxpark. I think someone said 2 of them were Americans. The other one 1 saw was by themselves looking a little overwhelmed with it all.
I’m sure I saw a few on the walk into Wembley as well.

As you say, no chance for a longtime blue…but heyho on anyone else… as it’s unlikely they know the history …unbelievable as that sounds to longterm blues.
It’s a bit like twosips tearing that Egyptian (?) Liverpool fan to pieces on the podcast, about their littlewoods past financial doping. Unless people venture out of their echo chambers, they’ll never learn more.

Surely them first six aren't right we only came into existence in 2008.

I'm trying to figure out what's different today, and I think I've put my finger on it.

Unlike during the match, I can't hear my heart beating.

You think your bucket hats are trendy
You think your zebra pants are too
Green and gold scarves on after a defeat
City doing a 3peat
You wish you were a fucking blue

I’ll get my coat.

Probably already posted, but Jack and Laura.

She couldn’t keep her hands off him!

 

[remember arthur mann]

All over Anthony Joshua when she interviewed him. Got extremely close shall we say.

Not as close as Elton.
