"Today is the last fixture of the English footballing calendar, today it is the FA Cup final, it is Portsmouth Vs Cardiff City and it is going to be a day that makes history. Some say that the FA Cup has lost its magic in recent years with the same teams winning the competition year in year out. The last team outside of the so called "Top 4" to win the FA Cup was Everton back in 1995"

I would like to tell you that this year's FA Cup Final was a riveting match that encapsulated all that's best about the game, but that would be a big fat lie. I watched with a few of my teammates, and we were all more interested in rehashing our own game from the night before than watching Portsmouth and Cardiff swat ineffectually at each other. I suppose it was still better than the ...
