Red seats at the villa end. No staying behind and showing their appreciation for taking them there…

(Pains to say) Leicester?

Glad Villa lost again, hope Palace win the cup.

They've got to get on the Chiltern railway services that have already told them there's no guarantee of getting them home

Man City not sold their allocation by thousands.

 

[Tommo1993]

Poor start probably cost them.

Really poor effort, ITV defended them saying the price of tickets is expensive.

 

[Tommo1993]

What a jeffing save that is.

Ha, never mind.

 

[Leicesterfox]

Get in!

ITV cameras just panned to the empty seats again.

Disgraceful for an FA Cup Semi

30 visits in 14 years, I can get it.

30 visits in 14 years, I can get it.

If they're visiting Wembley so often that its a legitimate reason for them to not sell out, then it means they're visiting too often

I’m hoping that Palace win the FA Cup today, and Man City finish the season trophy less.

Still annoys me that is is being sandwiched in between two days of Premier League games and then they both have to play PL games only a few days later.

The FA Cup Final should always take place after the season has ended.

And not squeezed in at an odd time to accommodate Eurovision coverage.

Eurovision is undoubtedly a bigger deal today.

If they kicked off at 3pm, as they should, there would be no issue with Eurovision. It's the insistence of having late kick offs because they for some reason think we prefer to watch football later.

Wayne Rooney just said teams have a "fear of winning".
Think that's where he's been going wrong in management!

 

[wingy]

Smog in ground's, health hazard, get it gone!

Where's Ally McCoist?

 

[wingy]

That Mitchell for palace, he's the one who was here the other season?

Wenger did so much good for English football but I'm fairly sure he started the antipathy towards cup competitions we see today.

Of course there are other factors but if I remember correctly that was the beginning of the decline.

Yeah, Psychologist!

Get in

 

[clint van damme]

That's sensational.
Brilliant hold up play from the big fella.

Yeah. Very Simms like.

 

[wingy]

Brilliant!
I was just going to say the way Palace set up is quite something,you can actually see the way they condense the formation, I think they could go down to a a postage stamp and still score a goal!

 

[oscillatewildly]

That goal doesn't happen unless I miss it by going into the kitchen for another rum & coke.
Believe me, I have 'form'.

 

[Paul Anthony]

Henderson might have a problem.

 

[wingy]

Oh dear!

 

[Nick]

Henderson might have a problem.
