1:30 a crazy time? :lol:

I wish I could watch matches live at that time on Saturday nights/Sunday mornings rather than staying up until 4 or 6.

Crazy time for us it is ozzie owl. Moving to 5pm London time (1.30 am here, 2am EST) has meant the death of the traditional aussie FA Cup night party. Those on this forum and on community radio here saying no-one cares about the FA Cup anymore are wrong IMO. It is still the grand finale to the season, having it's own stand-alone day(17/5/14 London), with the EPL finishing 11/5/14.

But don't know if you should trust recording it, ozzie owl. Something will ruin it for you and the score will be given away. And you know what they say about watching a game where you already know the score - it's like having cold soup....

With Glenside just across the road, that makes a lot of sense.

There are those saying no-one cares about the FA Cup anymore. It is one of the great days in the English sporting calendar at Wembley.

It is still the grand finale to the season, having it's own stand-alone day at 5pm 17th May in London (1.30am 18th May Adelaide time), with the EPL having finished on the 11th of May.

I hope Wilshere starts in that wonderful Arsenal midfield. Podolski has a great left foot but seems to go missing occasionally. I'm hoping the midfield five are Arteta, Cazorla, Ramsey, Wilshere & Ozil and that Arsenal score an early goal, and we get to see a real exhibition of wonderful flowing football.

Arsenal 3 Hull 2. At last some silverware again!

And from 0-2 down. The ref denied Arsenal at least 3 penalties. Class came through in the end & Ramsey scored a great winner.

Decent game of football, bad luck Hull. 2-0 once again proves to be a dangerous scoreline

More arse than class.
