      Not for me, I still love it, remember the 81 & 82 finals like they were yesterday!!

      Some all Prem ties to get the juices flowing, and some potential “gaint-killer” games too, a little bit of everything and with the very staggered kick-off times, I would think a lot of football to be watched if you have the time…

        I remember having a conversation with Nine on here (a few years back) about the finals being left at a 3pm Kick Off and no other football match other than the Scots Cup Final should take place. Over time, traditions and the day/event being exclusive has somewhat been lost. Definitely not the same as it was in the 80s and 90s.

        I know obviously the CL is the biggest prize, but the last few finals have reflected Prem Winners and the well-known successful teams winning it so from that point of view, the fans should feel secure knowing that this competition is still meaningful

          No way. The Magic is well and truly alive.

          Good match yester afternoon. Palace deserved their triumph. Eze was immense and I hope Liverpool sign him in the summer.

          Brighton-Forest I didn’t watch, but seemingly that was another mouth-watering tie.

          Hopefully, the same follows this afternoon and we have a new potential FA Cup winner for 2025.
