Found an old football I had a few weeks back, had chance to have a quick browse through it yesterday. It's the FA Cup history of EVERY foortball club since 1945 thru to 1992. By chance I opened one of the pages at Everton, I never realised they were in three consecutive FA Cup Finals. They knocked my team out on the way to the first of those. 1984-85 (I think).

They beat us in the semi in '84. Some of our fans still haven't got over it.

‘84, ‘85 & ‘86 mate. Lost 2 of the ****ers, and I was at all of them. Plus ‘84 league cup final against THEM, which was a draw at Wembley and we lost the replay.

For entertainment value, I had a look on a Spurs forum called 'The Fighting Cock' to see how they felt about us (Arsenal) being in the cup final.

Here's some quality content:

Totti: "lol and theyre gonna finish above us too. brilliant."

Igula: "LOL. The luck is unreal."

bus-conductor: "**** right off. Switching over to the Milan game."

Hotspurio: "Jammiest pricks of all time"

Thin Lily-white Duke: "To be clear, I am not suggesting a conspiracy: but Woolwich's rub of the green in the FA Cup since it started being sponsored by Emirates is flabbergasting."

R3NW5: "Bitter at how many times this could have been us and despite how **** they are at the moment it's them. Again."

Hotspurio (again): "Imagine, IMAGINE if one of their ****tiest teams ever still wins a cup over us. Really brings things into perspective about how wasted our previous teams were."

<laugh><laugh><laugh><laugh>

I can taste the saltiness and bitterness - and I LOVE it.

Win win today for me. I'd personally rather Bournemouth stay up so aren't all that bothered if they beat us. But equally I'll find it pretty funny if we stick the final nail like they failed to do in 2018.


So probably a draw.
