Forgetting they're welsh, I've changed my view on todays match.
I really hope Cardiff do it, so teams like us can dream that one day we'll be watched by millions around the world in the cup final. One day my friends that could be us, and when it is I hope most neutrals support us!!!
So after years of crap I hope the Bluebirds pull it off today!!! to be fair its not exactly a million years ago Portsmouth were nothing more than a lower end 2nd tier team... |

Happy with that. Put a tenner in Betfair a few months ago and been building it up with £2 bets here and there on horses and football. Took £50 back out yesterday and still got £70 to play with. (£40 on Pompey to win was a bit stupid, but they did, so woot woot).  |

Radio 5's post match Sully Montari Junior/senior chat didn't really work very well! What with french both being their native language....

Not sure about that young Dave.....Hausa is the native language of Ghana's muslim population of which Muntari is one. English ids the official language of Ghana as it used to be part of the British Empire. |

Another year-another crap cup final,decided by the shittiest winning goal for a long time.Portsmouth were in my opinion,absolutely dire and you wouldn't have been able to tell which was the Premier side if it wasn't for Motson's usual fawning commentary-I hate this "Harry Love-in "bollocks

Okay it wasn't the highest standard of football but it was entertaining, both teams had chances, and they both played like they actually wanted to win the game. I'd much rather that than the game last year which, quite frankly, was dire. |

It wasn't the worst final by a long way. Aside from the liverpool - Wet sham final a few years back it was probably the best this century.

I thought it was alright! |
