IT'S FA CUP WEEK !!
In the build up to this week's FA Cup Final I would like to ask the question......WHAT IS YOUR FAVOURITE / MOST MEMORABLE FA CUP MOMENT??
Was it Di Matteo's ultra quick and fabulous long range goal?
Was it Ricky Villa's sublime and famous dribble and goal in 1981?
Was it The Crazy Gang of Wimbledon beating the mighty Liverpool?
Or was it that dramatic Crystal Palace v Man United final first leg which is of course a repeat of this year's final?/
Come on Boys and Girls let's hear from you all!!

Derby disappoint yet again! Why did I choose this team to support?

My favourite FA Cup Final moment....
Was being there when United beat Liverpool in 1996, to win the double for the second time in three years, Eric scored the only goal of the game, that was the year Liverpool players arrived in cream suits... to**ers.
Seems like a very long time ago now though.
RE: IT'S FA CUP WEEK !!
Obviously Ricky's goal. The greatest ever.
Gazza's goal against the Woolwich Nomads in 1991 was pretty special.
Mickey Thomas's goal against Le Scum.
The 1987 semi V Watford was a great day. Probably Clive Allen's first. Mitchell Thomas having John Barnes in his pocket all day.

Oh, the FA cup, didn't it mean more back in the day? It was such an occasion.
My best memory has to be the day I started supporting West Ham, watching the 1975 cup final on TV, with my brother on the floor of the lounge room, the build up, the game , the result, the brown carpet, the haircuts, the beards, the advertising hoarding for Chessington Zoo, and listen to this bizarre video produced by Lee Bowyer , surely not!
Also of course 1980 Sir Trevor putting the Arse to the sword !!

Despite the fact Im a Gooner and that my obvious most memorable FA Cup moments has been the 9 times weve won it in my life time I would have to say that the Ryan Giggs goal against Arsenal in the 1999 Semi-Final would have to be the most memorable.
With Bergkamp having missed a penalty in the last few minutes of normal time, that would have knocked Man U out and prevented them from going on to win the famous Treble, up steps a much younger Ryan Giggs who from in his own half picks up the ball, drives down the left wing, skipping past Patrick Vieira before tricking his way through the best defence in the land at the time of Dixon, Adams, Keown , and then topping it of by beating the unbeatable David Seamen!
Doesn't matter how you support – that has to the best ever goal in the history of the FA Cup.
