FA cup

This very risky to start a topic with all tese newbies wrecking the forum, but its one of the greatest cups and I felt we needed a topic so we could talk about the FA cup maybe there will be a surprise win, but its a bit too late.

The cholchester and chelsea game was great today, a really enjoyable match. I aplaud colchester they done very well and are great young side.

I didnt see it but I heard the score and my dad told me, well done to ColchesterLets hope Chelsea can get the triple

Unexespected circumstances I bet!

My dad got the oppotunity to go see Scotland beat England 1-0 at Wembley for a Euro 2000 qualifier, ah the good times!

HAMMERS ALL THE WAY

COME ON THE HAMMERS

**FA CUP FINAL**

WEST HAM UNITED 2 1 CHELSEA

Yeah well done to you, I don't see how the free kick which led to the first goal was a free kick. Drogba should have scored and so should have Joe Cole, but in the end, the better team won.

Geremi, shouldn't have played so badly, that's who I'm cheesed off with

That's very fair minded of you! I wasn't sure about the free kick myself but apparently if a player goes into a tackle with six studs showing, it's a foul. That's why it was a free kick. Even if he does get the ball it would seem! But then the Chelsea wall was all at sea and should easily have blocked that shot from Riise.

Liverpool were the better team for around 70 minutes but got battered towards the end. A shame from Chelseas point of view that their strikers were doing what ours were doing for the first half of the season!!

Unlucky guys, have to wait a bit longer for that elusive double. It's not as easy as you think

When Arsenal won?

My favourites were Wembely '97 when Di Matteo scored 43 seconds in (Or was that the Coca Cola cup?) and Wembeley '00 when chelsea beat villa 1 - 0, Di Matteo scoring again. I even have the programme to that match and the DVD which is about that match.

I think Chelsea got what they deserved to be honest.

I hate Chelsea and I know I'm gonna be biased, but I'm really not a fan of Liverpool either but was absolutely thrilled when they beat the "Special One".

My rant on this will be about Mourinho - and how much of a sore loser he is.

I watch MotD (Match of the Day) most Saturdays, and to my disgust, whenever Chelsea lose (which, to give them some credit, is not very often) Mourinho ALWAYS gives an excuse, or claims they deserved to win. I remember watchin one game a couple of weeks back when they were outplayed, and lost something like 3-1, I can't rmember who against, but after the game Mourinho went into the interviews and claimed they were the better team! And he was so darned arrogant and cocky, and it was almost as if he thought he could do no wrong!

And also, with the game against Liverpool, he exaggerated so much about the importance of the referee's decisions on the game, and didn't even give credit to Liverpool for their fantastic first half performance, which a lot of decent manager's do.

Most of this can be said for Arsene Wenger too. Yes, they are great managers, but I hate their attitudes towards other people and other teams.

Nothing wrong with that

but I'm not sure if he did see it, and it was an Arsenal player who took out Eboue.

No offence to Liverpool fans, but I have been speaking to many people at school about the weekend's game, and they would have preffered a Chelsea v West ham final because they find Liverpool a bit too boring.
