Will it be Blackburn with new signing Andy Cole?

Or will it be the Spurs, despite the year no. not ending in a 1?

I voted Blackburn purely because I would like to see them do it. I think they play a nice brand of football, there only problem is that they are too small as a team. Spurs are a good side too though and I think the signing of Gus Poyet was a very shrewd move by Mr Hoddle.

I voted Spurs. Blackburn are purest muck at the moment, I just don't see them winning it.

spurs

I voted Spurs as they must be the favourites when you consider the talent they now boast, I always had a soft spot for their style of play esp. in the mid-late 80s' and thats definitly back. That said its a cup final so anything is possible.

I think spurs will win 3-1 but i hope blackburn make a game out of it and come up with a shoch result might be a chance for damian dunn to show everyone what he can do!

Dustaz · 22-02-2002 12:28pm

blackburn. Just to annoy wwman:)

Altho, hey if the spuds win, we can always dust off that 'shìt cups' song ..... again

WhiteWashMan · 22-02-2002 3:13pm

anyway, spuds rule.....

Spurs are big fav's and that could go against them as I think they play better when underdogs (ie semi againt Chelsea) so it's Blackburn for me.
ramius "might be a chance for damian dunn to show everyone what he can do!" Would that be David Dunn or Damian Duff?

Well done Blackburn, the revenues will be needed in the 1st Divison.

disappointing.

god, blackburn in europe. deserved to win on the day. poor old les. he did everything except score.

gandalf · 24-02-2002 6:19pm

Ok one thing I will say it was a damn entertaining final which is something you cannot say for the majority of English or other Cup Finals.

Tough luck Spurs (God I feel dirty now) and a big well done to Blackburn !!

Enjoyed that, great game for the neutral :]

Whoooohooooo!

Sorry. No gloating in this post.

I thought it was an entertaining match. Cole stuffed Hoddles comments down his throat, and gave Sven a timely reminder.

Spurs had a lot of players who weren't at there best? Maybe the favourites tag doesnt sit well with them? They played better as underdogs.

Now Blackburn have a bit of momentum, hopefully they can carry that into the league.

Fair play to blackburn they deserved it in teh end, for a neutral it was a great game, i havent enjoyed watching a football match that much in quite a while, amazing to see all these blackburn supporters coming out of the woodwork,

in all fairness, hoddle said that andy cole needed about 5 chances to stick it in the net.
he must have had that yeasterday.
therefore id say it was an acurate comment.
but it was a well taken oppertunity

the only good thing i can take from the game wa that spurs played poorly, but at the same time they werent that bad, abd they were certainly entertaining and played lovely football.
for the spurs fan, it nice to see your team play with style and skill.
consistancy and some depth in the squad would be nice.
and having steve carr back. weve missed him desperately.
i rate toricco, but he not as good as steve carr.
and he doesnt look like a manic killer either.
and he doesnt score cracking 45 yard goals against utd like carr does either

but again, blackburn deserved the win.
played. a good entertaining game and at the end of the day you cant ask for more

*mumble*apart from winning, but oh no, not my team, useless shower of bastárds*mumble*

Winning goal, end of story.
