Re: FA Cup Finals

The first final I remember taking any interest in was the 1980 final when West Ham beat Arsenal 1-0 with Trevor Brooking scoring the goal. My brothers and I were at my uncles place listening on the radio. One of my brothers went home happy, the other not so, didn't make any difference to me.

The first final I remember watching on telly was the 1985 final between Man U and Everton when Kevin Moran became the first player to be red carded in a final. Norman Whiteside then went on to curl in a brilliant goal in extra time.

Being a Liverpool fan though, I have now got quite a few good memories of the F.A. Cup (1986, 1989, 1992, 2001, 2006)

Hopefully next Wednesday's Champions League final will be as good as the one in 2005.

As tomorrow (sat) is Fa Cup Final day, what do you remember about fa cup finals in days gone by?

The first cup final I remember is 79, Arsenal 3 man U 2 , turned out to be a brilliant final in the end, I remember getting so excited when Man u equalised and then Alan Sunderland scoring the winner, moments later.

Also fa Cup final daya always seemed to be warm and sunny.
