FA Cup Final on tv?
 
Hi

Ive tried looking on ahead of schedule on Fox Soccer Channel, to see if they are showing the final tomorrow, and I didnt see it.

Has anyone any info on channel/time, or whether or not they are even showing it?

It should be a cracker!

Although my main attention is on Wednesday.......come on you 'pool!!!!!!!!!

Pay per view. My cable company uses inDemand and it's $24.95. Should be money well spent.

Saving my $ 25 for petrol money to watch Harrisburg City Islanders v Northern Virginia Royals saturday night.

OK not the same standard, but at least I can eat pizza safely. :)

I got to say that is absolutely extortionate SP? thats almost £15 i can't beleive they charge so much, luckily I still live in england right now so get to see it for free, and even where i am moving there are a couple of bars close by that show it and all you have to do is spend $10 minimum.

Right. I went to a few bars that showed pay per view events and they all had a $10 cover charge. The whole thing's a bunch or arse if you ask me. The superbowl isn't PPV in England, why should the FA cup be in America?

Although obviously you'll assume i'm bias, i think it'll be the other way round as do most betting shops/online betting companies.

Man U have had to good a run against us recently for it to continue and with both Heinze out, who is probably left back of the season and Neville who they always miss and howard in goal i can see us winning this, all we are missing is Henry, which yes he is important but our record without him is actually amazingly good.

I'd agree that you are the better side,but I just have a feeling for Man U this time.
Here's for a good game,the Final against Millwall last year was awful.My team (Sunderland)would have at least had a go.

Setanta demands $20 USD per head. I've managed to get my five-year-old in for free.

The FA Cup is one of the treasures of world sport. The superbowl is over hyped shite ?
