Hmmm normally i'd agree but if Palace win LVG is almost guaranteed the sack whereas if the Manc Scum win he might survive and i do quite enjoy the way their fans loathe the man and the inconsistent shite football they play at times...... what we don't need is yet another competent manager taking over a team and making us look even worse :rubchin:

Then again i work with two of them, ones the owner of my company so the angst if they lose might be worth it :?

I don't want to give our cup to United. I can't see a cup saving LVG really as they didn't make top 4. Probably didn't want to sack him just before a cup final, that would be ridiculous for the team and LVG's commitment to it.

Hibs 3 v Rangers 2 in a great Scottish cup final. One that will be better than our one in the new soulless Wembley I expect.

Hibs win it for the first time in 114 years after 10 successive final defeats and their fans invaded the pitch ... only for the Rangers fans to follow :) .

Commentators going berserk with words like 'disgraceful' being repeated. Wish they'd STFU sometimes. Football is a game of emotion and without that emotion (which will always spill over at times) you have no game.

Winning the FA Cup back in 1990 bought Fergie more time as he was an the verge of the sack. In 2014 the FA Cup win and the end of the trophy drought enabled Wenger to renew with a straight face.
I wonder if Man U win today how it will affect LVG at Man U.

It was on Sky. One great thing about Scottish football are the atmospheres at games. Better than down here.
