    Kane's got a new baby and his family are close by.

    Unfortunately that puts Chelsea in the picture, and with Poch in charge the picture is getting clearer, sad to say.

    I cannot see him joining Chelsea. Man Utd is the likely destination if he doesn't stay at Spurs.

    Agreed.  But Levy has this tough guy image to uphold.  It is also no secret we are screwed in the num9 department.

    And there's a big net to stop balls going over the "corporate suites" into back gardens.

    Good to see the cup final tomorrow is at the proper time of 3pm

    So for all you neutral's out there who do you hope wins - For me it is City due to Haaland and Phillips as both Leeds lads - Will be great to see 2 good  sides turn it into a proper thriller and not a bore with some crap controversial goal/moment

    I want City to win but want something like 3-2. with Man U making City graft and earn it - Take it to them especially with some effective counter attacks

    I hope Utd win and stop City getting the treble, they win enough and I never particularly liked em anyway, even before they struck it rich. 

    Likelihood of this happening is nil however :)

    My head said brake, but my heart cried never.

    But yet the Scottish Cup Final has been moved to 530 to accommodate the English Final kicking off at 3. Had it been at 3 I would be on my way to Glasgow now to watch the mighty ICT turn Celtic over again 

    hoping for some more supercaleygoballisticcelticareatrocious

    Have they always been on the same day - I'm going back to the 70's and 80's and trying to recall if the same day/same time or a week apart

    As a Man U fan I'm hoping they win. Odds are against it but you never know on the day, I've seen plenty of teams getting mugged for a result in the past. It's one of those matches where I really should put a tenner on for Man City to win. I'd love to lose my money, but then again I get a tiny bit of a consolation prize for an MC win.

    As I've said before, I don't like one team dominating, it's not good for sport. Having said that though I have to remember that Man U certainly had a golden period so I can't be too grumpy about  City's current run. 

    I'm guessing ... City win 2-0. I'm hoping for Man U win 7-1.

    Frustrating match for a neutral to watch. City well on top but seem to lack the desire to kill the game off.

    City deserved the win in the end.  We had chances and avoided a humiliation so could have been worse.  League cup and third isn’t too bad.  Not nice to lose a cup final but well done City.

    Celtic play good football.  Plenty of quick forward passing, players who know where the opposition's goal is, if a little vaguely at times.

    (For some obscure reason, for a Spurs fan, I watched the Scottish Cup Final).
    Having trouble posting images here?  This might help.
