Oh yes. The black pudding merchants against the midlands sheep shaggers. I watched that one on the telly! ;)
 
A little something for the stat fans: The two clubs have only met 13 times before in their history and, quite frankly, if you want to read into these things, it doesn't look good for Millwall.

Of those 13 meetings three have been draws, Millwall have won just once and United have chalked up wins in the remaining nine, including a 1-0 win in their only FA Cup encounter back in 1953.
 
Let's get some pictures up to get us in the mood...

Old git! :p

Millwall players pen pictures from a fanzine editor

Robbie Ryan Left-back
"The final will be the amiable Ryan's last game for the club after six years of service. A consistent performer, when asked how he'll deal with Ronaldo, he replied, 'Kick him - I have no Plan B!'"
He'll have to catch him first!

Looks like Cahill is their main threat although we'll also have to look out for the handicapped midfielder, Livermore.
 
Beware the 'Jeff Winter' factor, tiliting some of the balance of the game to Millwall. Most incompetent refs are at least even handedly so and are not worth the criticism but he is the most openly ABU ref in the game.

At the risk of sounding paranoid I wonder how much of a say Dein had in the selection of officials. I mean, Winter and Messias ? !

Early bookings / sending offs / a penalty are practically inevitable in Fatso's last game before becoming a media muppet and I have a feeling any such decisions will not be given in our favour.

We're not creating many chances these days so this won't be a cakewalk, Winter simply won't allow it to happen. I expect a close 2-1 victory to our lads.

Would love to see storming performances from Ronaldo, Fletch and Djemba.

Come on you reds !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

:devil:
 
well here goes (to sleepy jean)

cheer up denis wise
the terraces tell no lies
you're a sad southern bastard

I hope that United play will & win convincingly,,,the fans deserves it after a hard season,,,,,Is there an estimate for how many ppl around the world will watch the game ?
 
I'm off to the final tomorrow to cheer the Reds on!!! :D

If we play like we did in the first against Villa, I can't see Millwall offering a resistance.

I'm gonna go with a 3-0 to United.
 
I hope we give Millwall a good thrashing..we got all our anger on them for not winning the premiership and not getting far in champs league..

come on redddddssss
 
NY REDS!!!!!!!.I had a dream last night and the final score was 5-3 to utd!!I dont care if we win 1-0 or 6-5 so long as we put on a great show, attack! attack! attack!
 
COME ON YOU REDS!!!!!!

Glory, glory, Man United,

And the reds go marching on, on, on.

And we're going to C-a-r-diff!!!
 
We shall not, we shall not be moved,
We shall not, we shall not be moved,
Just like the team, that's gonna win the F.A. Cup - again!
We shall not be moved.
 
Millwall players are trying to wind us up even before the match start. Hope we gave them a good spanking. ;)
 
I'm realy trying here but I just can't get excited yet about the game, I'm sure that will change by kick off, it's just so one sided it doesn't feel like a competition.
Hope everyone going to the match has a great day, weather is great and I,m sure the atmosphere will be electric.
Maybe it's because I,m not going that I can't get excited about it yet.
So sod it, it's off to the pub early get a good seat.
 
Come on you Reds
Come on you Reds
Just keep your bottle and use your heads
For ninety minutes we'll let them know
It's Man United - Here we go!


4 and a half hours to go

All the best to United :devil:

Wasn't that around the late 1800's? We certainly hold the modern day record as such... Mind you we've yet to destroy a team this year, like we normally do... We've only scored 5 goals in one game, and that was in Europe... We do normally have a game a year when it all falls into place.. Today's the last chance..
 
I would actually like to see Nicky Butt start alongside Keane...I think this could probably be his last game. I'll be happy to see him sort out Denis Wise.

--------Howard------
Gaz--Wes--Mickey--Phil
-----Butt-----Keano-----
Roni----Scholes-----Giggsy

bench: Caroll, O'Shea, Solksjaer, Fletcher, Djemba

Fergie will go with this:


-----------Howard-------------

Gazza----Wes--Mickey--O'Shea

--------Fletch--Keano---------

--Ronnie---Scholes-----Giggs--

------------Ruud--------------
 
Nervous as feck here, but today is a big day for the players of United.

Stand up and be counted lads, the rest of the country wants you to lose, will that spur you on or make no difference?

Its time to find out who is a Manchester United player, and who is not.

feckING COME ON LADS!
 
We all follow Man United..

We're all going to Wem-ber-ley...

And we'll really shake them up, when we win the FA Cup.

Coz United are the greatest football team



:devil:
 
<<<<<A great big cup final day Hello to one and all.>>>>>

I'm sat in my front room with a nice beer. Missus is working. My daughter is at her Aunts and the place is lovely and quiet.

I feel good.

How are all you lot feeling?

:D :D :D
 
Nervy as the minutes tick by, about 1 more hour to go before kick-off. Any news on our team line-up.

Butt got provoked by Wise, kicked him and then got sent off before I recall. The video replay showed that wise had fouled Butt, pulled a hair out of his leg (seriously) prompting Nicky to lash out. Would be nervous at a repeat meeting of those two.

Our team for today from SS1:
