that was a great final
Yeah do nothing for 120 minutes and then win on penalties, a strategy Liverpool would go on to make their own.

Is this the same Man Utd you are talking about whoade a formal request to leave the FA cup and moaned like hell when they weren't allowed to. They wanted to concentrate on Europe.
Funny thing was when they exited Europe and werent looking to win the league they suddendly became very interested in it again.

Better to go out in a blaze of glory against a $$$$$$$ team in a magnificent stadium than lose away to a so-so club.
Even better to win, of course!

Man Utd did irreparable damage to the prestige of the FA Cup when they fucked off on their little money making jaunt overseas. It was a disgrace and should never have been allowed.

whats this got to do with newcastle ffs? keep on topic
revol68
what, fucking what?
More of the same bullshit.
You mean the year Man Utd was pressured into playing in the World Club Championship by the FA and Government in the belief it would help England's world cup bid?
Christ, the rumours that jealousy compels.
marty21
One on one? You're crazy.
true - we shouldn't talk about newcastle and fa cup finals, unless we're going back to the 1950s
That was a shit final. Man U were crap for 89 minutes and then scored 2 flukey goals with about 10 seconds left...
revol68
what, fucking what?
You mean when they were requested to by both the FA and Government?
But don't let the facts get in the way of having a pop at the FA Cup's most successful team.
marty21
One on one? You're crazy.
with such a strong squad - they could still have played the fa cup - the clearly didn't want to, and used this "pressure" as an excuse to get out of it

it was an exciting last 30 seconds though
revol68
what, fucking what?
Yes we were also without Scholes and Keane and had already shown ourselves to be better than Bayern in the group stage.
revol68
what, fucking what?
Oh wise up, they couldn't have done both, they'd have only ended up falling between two stools trying that, making a mockery of the FA Cup and pissing off FIFA at the same time.

If you are a Cardiff supporter you want one of two things:
A massive glamour tie away (would have loved to have visited old trafford even though I know we'd lose)
or
The easiest opposition possible at home.
We got neither of those.
The worst draw possible would have been Portsmouth away, A prem away with no glamour.

Yes, I think it was the wrong decision but it was one done under pressure from the FA and government.

Why, exactly? We're in the quarter finals with a good chance.
