Re: Football Season 2013/14 & Summer Window
This is not sour grapes, Arsenal were poor, and yet the best side on the day were Wigan in my opion.
If Arsenal think they will win the cup on this display, they have another thing coming.

Hoping whoever Arsenal get now will wipe them off the pitch. Not happy tonight at all.

Arsenal were poor, and the strangest thing was, it went to penalties, thats why they won.
And yet an Arseanl player said that they were the best on the day - he was in cuckoo land. Wenger, he made poor decisions in my views.

Wigan hardly had one decent chance all game. Arsenal were poor but had the better chances and deserved to go though on balance.

A bit different from the last time they won an FA cup match on penalties.
Also don't see Nick Powell having a future at OT.
If Wigan can pick themselves up from this then I wouldn't want to be the Championship side that have to face them in the play offs.

Agree...I hope Wigan do well in the play-offs

What happened at Wembley though? It was very awkward. There was a silence and then I heard a chant of 'Justice for the 96' off to my right and then there was some applause but I think the applause started to the left to drown out what they thought were hecklers disrupting the silence with malicious intent. So we had a scenario were half the stadium was clapping, half the stadium was silent, and some people were singing.

Personally l think when there is a sad event there should be a minutes silence and when we are celebrating the life of a player then there should be a minutes applause.

I think that's the game summed up in a nutshell Damien. There's always someone that's not gonna like it though, and it's usually the same one...

I'm saying nothing as my predictions usually come back to haunt me. What that really means is I've bottled it
