Leicester have never won the FA Cup
Losing 3 finals in the 1960's
Hopefully they'll win it today

Yes. It's one of the country's sporting crown jewels.
Albion being part of the FA Cup Final's tradition makes it all the more special.

If the weather was better and we were able to go out to restaurants the answer may be different, but I'm on for a warm up to the 8 o'clock top of the bill

I might watch it since Leicester beat us on the way and if it wasn't for our last minute capitulation from the extremely quick corner it woulda been extra time and possibly penalties

I have some drying paint that needs watching.
I’ll be going through a flight of locks just East of Burnley on the Leeds Liverpool canal while it’s on, most likely, so probably not.
I can’t actually remember the last cup final I watched, to be honest. It’s a great shame as it used to be such a big event that I never wanted to miss.
I couldn’t remember who was in it, even.

Yes. Warm up to the big one at 8 with food and beer.
No question the FA have stripped a lot of the soul out of the FA Cup but I could easily give them a blueprint for restoring at least some of its glory.
1. Semis at neutral grounds not Wembley
2. Final at 3pm on a Saturday once the league season has ended
3. No singer required to lead Abide with Me
4. No flame throwers required as the teams walk out the tunnel
5. Steps to the Royal Box to collect the cup that don’t suddenly dog-leg off into the stadium, go past the Club Wembley bogs and then suddenly emerge back into the stadium again.
There is loads more wrong with the Cup compared to its glory days but fixing these for starters would help.

FA Cup Final day was once unmissable viewing. Today. Meh.

Match of the day tomorrow
Please don’t tell me that you watch Albion games at home on my tv as a full kit wanker
As a point of interest what’s your other half doing, all the jobs seem to be falling on you!
God no! Rarely wear my shirt TBH. Mrs Zef has done some painting, but she seems to excel at procurement.

I'm intending to watch but this sums pretty much how I feel. Very little love for such a cheating club.

Wasn't even aware who the finalists were until about 15mins ago.
If DAZN had it, I would watch it though. Alas, they don't, so it'll be radio coverage for me!
