    The Fucking Arseholes have cocked up yet again!!
    Taking from the Mirror and also seen Darren Lewis talk about this on SSN this morning.

    Soldiers who carry out the team flags before the FA Cup final tomorrow will not be allowed to stay and watch the match.
    Instead, they will be taken to a nearby pub to follow the action on TV as Manchester City battle Stoke in the biggest game in the FA calendar.
    A source said: “It’s just incredible. Everyone was under the impression that they would be guests of honour and get to enjoy the football.
    “Instead, they’ll be turfed out of the stadium just as the match kicks off. Everyone was in shock when they were told. It was a real kick in the teeth.
    “Some of them were pleading and saying they would be happy to stand by the side of the pitch and watch, but they were told they would not be allowed. There were a lot of angry people.”

    The soldiers, most of them Scots, will be invited to an England Euro 2012 qualifying game at Wembley instead.
    Event360, the company responsible for recruiting the 50 volunteers to take part in the opening spectacular, was not answering calls last night.

    A MoD spokesman said: “The soldiers were made aware before they volunteered that tickets would not be available for the FA Cup Final.”

    Soldiers don't eat caviar and prawn sandwiches so the cup final isn't really their scene anyway. Since the new Wembley opened the Cup Final has been an event exclusively for executives of telecommunications firms with no interest in football. Not soldiers.

    Their lack of respect disgusts me.
    To top the day off it's also been confirmed next seasons FA cup final will also again have Premier League fixtures on the same day as we are going to give the National team 3months to prepare for Euro 2012.

    like 3months will make any difference. Also we havent qualified yet (but we probably will) this is why FIFA thinks we are arrogant

    The FA are very arrogant and that's the main reason why nothing will come of the allegations against FIFA.

    surely this is a piss take (saying this but know it's true)
    to be honest nothing surprises me any more the organisation that preaches respect has none for anything/one else.
    total ****ers
