    Any fans from Singapore? How are you watching the final? It’s not telecast on any official channels here.

    Wembley Way! I don't care how, we have to win or we win or we win. We can't leave Wembley without that trophy. Peacefully or 'violently'. First trophy lands tonight. First of many for Erik the Red. Yes I'm half hammered. Will be fully by tonight. Come on United!!!

    Magical Manchester United.
    Newcastle team leaked apparently

    That's a good line-up no doubt, having Bruno back is massive for them. If we can keep Isak and Almiron quiet, we should be fine though. Stick Fred on Bruno, avoid idiotic set-pieces and ignore their shithousery, and we'll beat this lot.

    Four hours to kick off how are we all feeling lads?

    I'm surprisingly calm and simply looking forward to this cup final and hoping for the best.
    Same here. Just really looking forward to it. Can't see anything other than a win for us, I'm feeling confident. 2-0

    I mean that's a stupid question to ask, considering he's probably not gona even get on the pitch. Bruno will be lifting the cup.

    Maguire is probably on his way out in the summer, he's out of his depth here. Knows that himself.

    Awkward as feck asking him questions like that. No need tbh

    Hardest game of the season. I think we are very closely matched.
    I think it’s the hardest game of the season because what’s at stake. Newcastle are a tough gritty team but nowhere near the likes of City/Arsenal/Barca

    I'm almost shaking with nerves.

    I guess I overinvest emotionally. But to get that first trophy in six years, and the first of ETH's reign, would be huge. We could still end such a positive season with no trophies if we lose today, so really hoping we can get the first one in the bag.

    Having dropped Sky Sports Football at the start of the season to save money, I know find my local has stopped showing live sports (might have changed hands)... does anyone here ever use NOW TV and are they any good - £12 for the game seems a bit much unless the feed is good and reliable. One other pub might show it but means taking the car, plus the last time I watched there (admittedly some time ago), the staff/owner were really anti-United and it's bit pokey with nowhere to sit unless you get there early (and today of course people will be there for the Spurs game). Thoughts?

    The feed will be fine and reliable, but check what resolution you get on the day pass if it's important to you. On the monthly pass you have to pay extra for 1080p/5.1 surround sound. It's not 4K as far as I know on anything.

    It's decent enough and has been reliable in the past. Still taking the piss for £12 but can't be arsed with the alternatives.

    Pre game nerves setting in already, gonna be a long few hours until ko.

    We cannot allow this game to be open like the Leicester and Barcelona 1st halves, if it happens they'll have a lot of joy.

    I can see us going 5atb to start off the game.

    thanks... that's a bit worrying. Miss the days when cup finals were on the "protected list" - even if you did have to up with some clown ITV commentator

    NOWTV works fine although not sure if you can get UltraHD with it. Plenty of free streams available which aren’t great quality but kinda works.. but this season is epic so maybe just turn your subscription back on for a couple months mate, you’ll save the cost back on the beer you’re not buying in the pub!
