Fa Cup Final

There was a time when the entire day would be dedicated to this game. Bigger than the league title in its day.

 

Which is the first one you remember watching? Mine was Fulham v West Ham in 1975. Two things i remember from that day. Bobby Moore played his last ever game at Wembley and Fulham's keeper had an absolute 'mare.

 

1976 was a much more memorable...

    I'd chop my arm off for Bolton to win the FA cup in my lifetime.

    I'd cry like a baby if we ever won it.

    Not sure which bit you're responding to.

    ITV's coverage. If it doesn't kick off at 3pm, it fails at the first hurdle.

    ITV don't decide the kick-off time.

    I'd say TV decide most kick off times in televised games

    The FA Cup final kick off time was originally moved to accommodate UEFA.

    It could be moved back. That was a one off. The current kick off time is all about ad revenue from a tea time audience. Treats the fans as an afterthought.
