2012 FA Cup Final to kick-off at 5.15

As everybody knows, the FA Cup footy final has always taken place at the end of the season - and always kicks off at 3pm... well not anymore!

According to the FA, the 2012 final will kick-off at 5.15 pm to avoid clashing with other matches - and so the TV rights will earn the FA more money! (Details)

Furthermore, if you check the Wembley stadium website it doesn't appear that the FA have even booked the venue yet, which is why perhaps that some websites think the final will be on the 5th May and others think it will be the 12th!

Whichever day it turns out to be; the change of start time will not affect the FA Cup-Cup!
At least we know what we're doing!

We will be meeting at the normal time of 6am (date to be confirmed) and proceeding with the FA Cup-Cup as normal. There will then be the usual prize-giving afterwards - including a new TEAM PRIZE - followed promptly by Last Man Standing. Whether we remain at St Clere's for the footy is up for debate. If you have any ideas or opinions, then let us know....
