I would prefer 3:1 to the Gunners - just to avoid heart failure (although I'm stuck at a school fair all afternoon!)

I'd rather that MU not score any goals.

Wasn't the 1979 considered rather mundane until those last few incredible minutes?

I predict that most of the people here will be asleep and could'nt care less. Te He :).

Or that there will be more than a few "fans" end up in hospital after the match finishes and the fighting begins.

I havn't worked out yet why Kiwis don't kick the sh-- out of each other when their team loses, perhaps they will make a start when Arsenel get thrashed.
Sorry just teasing. :)

You really should get a life.

ITS JUST A GAME YOU KNOW

Huh? Wrong millenium I'm afraid. You have a *very* outdated view of the world.

It's a shame Gary Nev is unlikely to be playing - I always look forward to his dummy spitting, toy throwing antics ; )

It's a shame Gabby Heinze is unlikely too because he's actually good.

I'm just hoping for a good, hard fought game with no interruptions from United fans annoyed with Glazer.
Prediction: Because I'm an ABU (Anybody But United) ... 2-1 to the Arse.

I dislike Arsenal slightly less than Man United so I'll cheer for them.
oh, score? hmmmm....consults crystal bowl......
1-0 for Arsenal, but I hope for 3-2 for A

As a genuine football fan I hope that both teams play great football, the guy in the middle with the white stick has his eye sight restored for 90 minutes, that they argy bargy normally associated with Arsenal - Man U fixtures is forgotten, and that Terry Henry scores the winner in the dying minutes....

I am neutral( liverpool supporter) so I would love to see loads of goals for an intersting match..maybe 6-5 final score.
But realisticly I think 2-1 to the gooners, and at least one player sent off.
but thats just a girls 50p worth..lol.

MU 3:A 1
Early goal from Pires
Ruud scores twice, Ronaldo the other
(Avi Glazer in VIP box and claps when Pires makes a 'touchdown')

Rumour is that Henry is injured and will miss the match, but that might just be 'mind games' between Wenger and Ferguson.

I predict that there will not be 22 players on the pitch at the end of the game

Who is going to win? I will go for Arsenal 2-1.

I used to love FA Cup Final day, but with all the football on the TV these days it seems to have lost its Magic.

Lets hope we have a decent game of football rather than handbags from the players!!

I think you guys are overlooking the most important contest today - Eurovision:))

I'm a Villa fan myself (it's akin to watching my scores on here, VERY painful:)) I hate Man U but they have more homegrown talent in the team as opposed to the French national side that is the gunners, so I haven't quite got off the fence yet.

Strange. The game I just watched ended 0-0 after extra time.
Bad luck United, they were the better attacking side in a very enjoyable game.

I am so sad....

:'(

I have been a huge Utd fan since I was a boy and seeing them loosing this game with Glazer smiling like a retarded pet monkey in the stands..... :'(

I hate this feeling....
