We’re On The Road To Wembley: The FA Cup’s Semi-Finalists

Leicester City lead the Premiership. Tottenham are having their best run in a very long time. Arsenal have won the past two FA Cups. None of these three teams feature in the Semi-Finals. Instead, Manchester United, Everton, Crystal Palace and Watford will be vying for the title – whichever team does take the crown, it’ll have been a long time waiting for each, and for different reasons. In the first Semi-Final, Manchester United take on Everton – two teams that already have multiple FA Cup trophies between them, but it’s been a long drought... Read More

FA Cup Final: All in the A’s

So when it came down to it all… all we had to do to get our FA Cup final was pick the first two teams alphabetically in the Premier League. The final, taking place this weekend pits Aston Villa – who managed to hang on to their Premier League status this season – against 3rd placed (and current FA Cup holders) Arsenal.
