[birthofanorange]

I give Palace begrudging congrats for getting to their 3rd final, but I want them to be battered, humiliated, humbled, destroyed, crushed....etc.
5 - 1 City.
Or more.
Please.

Not tuning in until it's actually started. Can't be doing with all the pomp and pagentry leading up to kick off.....unless it was us playing, then I'd be gleaning every bit of news the whole week leading up to it....it's not us, so f*** 'em

 

[HangletonGull]

Last one before kick off please please please just please Man City

Palace are going to win, aren’t they

 

[nicko31]

Come the Citeh do it for your petro state pay masters

 

[SeagullsoverLondon]

This is going to be a boring watch unless City get a goal soon.

 

[Tom Hark Preston Park]

Can't see Palace putting eleven behind the ball working out for 90 minutes

 

[Si Gull]

Almost 1-0 City...

 

[BRIGHT ON Q]

What minute will be palace's first shot (and goal obviously)

 

[South Stand Bonfire]

Good to see that the Ultras’ mums have all given them nice white matching T-shirts for the game.

 

[Zeberdi]

So far Citeh looking like they’ve turned up for this.

 

[Hugo Rune]

KDB looking very good to my delight.

 

[nicko31]

Usually 2 touches in the box and 2 goals

 

[Zeberdi]

Wish our wingers could put crosses in like De Bruyne.

As there's no real football to speak of today, here's some coverage of the pre-game entertainment before the Coventry v Spurs 1987 FA Cup Final.

Crodo would love this - Ray Winstone, Steve Cram, Tarby, Adam Woodyatt, Dennis Waterman, Daley Thompson, Nick Owen, David Frost, Steve Davis...

Ronnie Corbett with the post-match presentations.

And Saint and Greavsie on co-commentary.

Ah yes but who can forget ITV's Wembley pitch inspection with Dickie Davies and Freddie Star dressed as Hitler in wellies!

This is like watching two teams playing different sports.

This is like watching two teams playing different sports.

Attack vs Defence practice. Palace offering absolutely nothing atm.

 

[HangletonGull]

This is hilarious it’s so bad from them

 

[trueblue]

I wonder if Palace will get a special trophy if they touch the ball in City’s penalty area. We may never know.
