    Change as manager to the team going up into the Prem that'll be guaranteed to go down halfway through the season

    Same as he always does

    Bonnyrigg Rose's brief three year stint in the SFL is over after they lost the play-off final 1-3 on aggregate against East Kilbride.

    Yes he is chairman of the FA I think.

    Pleased for Hughes after 2019.

    Will certainly feel vindicated even more about his move now !

    It probably doesn't matter, but the FA Cup Final was the final game of the season, was treated as a showpiece of English football. Remember the smile on the face of GT as he led the team out , with his Cup Final suit and club tie. Today some joggers and a pair of trainers seem good enough.

    Two poor teams from the EPL somehow reach the final of a European tournament that has little purpose other than making some money. 11,000 tickets for each set of fans. They could have used Villa Park rather than doing more damage to the planet. Think I will watch football that matters, Forest Green v Southend.

    23 minutes in and that looks to be a wise choice. Shocking stuff!

    Yes and then they basically sat back all game grimly holding but were quite comfortable until the end when there was a good save..

    Very poor and passive from Man U.

    Couple of Man U rejects leading Napoli to the title just to rub it in more .

    McTominay has thrived this season and Lukaku has his mojo back.

    Yes Conte certainly has got the best out of them as he did with Lukaku before .
