Good luck to Everton as well.

Arsenal v Everton final for me!

Ah Chelsea! In this cup anything can happen.

Ask Smoggie

Haha

I am hoping that Arsenal win it again, though that is a bit out of reach in reality. We were lucky last year in that other teams kicked out the tougher opposition

I might have more faith if we sign anyone

I want Kelly Smith to win it again so that means Arsenal but id like to see Everton win it but doubt that would happen

Just leave it at that. Looks better than jabbering on about Everton (j/k)
Seriously, I think it would be better if Arsenal got it again and then Everton would almost definately get to Europe next year and they would have more of a chance.

I want to see Kelly Smith actually PLAY in the final

I chopped all her fingers off so she has no excuses now

Haha yea that would be nice!

I notice that Cardiff are playing in the tournament - is that just because they are the highest placed Welsh team in the Premier league?

Or do they qualify as Welsh F A Cup winners ?

It doesn't make it plain on thier website - I just happened to notice the fixtures there.

It says they are Welsh champions again
