FA Cup

Just watching 'FA Cup's 50 greatest moments' on BBC 2. The competition may have lost the interest perhaps due to The Premier League & Champions League, but you can't deny it still has that bit of magic that the other competitions lack. 

For me the first cup final I remember & still the best for me is the '87 final between Spurs & Coventry. Incredible match. 

Favourite goal has got to be Gazzas free kick against Arsenal. But there's so many great goals throughout the years.

The last FA Cup match I really enjoyed was probably the West Ham United 3-3 Liverpool match. I think the one with the most quality was the Arsenal 1-2 Liverpool when Michael Owen scored two goals. 

But too many times over the years it has been too predictable, or too one-sided. Wigan beating Manchester City was good for football, but it wasn't half a drab game.

The Chelsea vs Liverpool and Manchester United finals over the years have been utterly dreadful too. I can't remember the last final between two of the top six which was actually any good - probably that Arsenal vs Liverpool one.

Arsenal vs Aston Villa just doesn't whet the appetite at all. Seems just too one-sided, and an Aston Villa 'shock' win would probably result in a boring 1-0 spectacle. Lose-Lose.
