England: FA Cup Final
As much as I'd I like to, I just can't get excited about this year's FA Cup final. Yes I know it's good that other teams are getting a chance, yes I know it's good that a Championship side is taking part, yes I know it's good Harry is getting his moment of Wembley glory. And yes I know last year's game between two top teams was awful. But for me the FA Cup is as much about the build up before the game as the game itself, and however it's dressed up it's still Cardiff against Portsmouth. But it could be a good game - let's hope so...
