FA Cup final day and Eurovisiion

Am i correct that this makes the perfect day. Watching my Man city team (hopefully) win the cup then a Eurovision themed party to celebrate 🏆🏆🏆🏆

Same OP!! Delighted that City won and now settling in for Eurovision. Whoop whoop. Enjoy!!!

Sadly not in the least bit interested in either 😏

@Makemeinvisibleall of the Rangers fans have become Hearts fans for this game 😂

Well thats true!

I'm actually usually more a Hibs person when it comes to the Edinburgh teams but I've definitely have been willing on Hearts this season.

115 charges v a club owned by trump supporters…

I imagine the crossover, on the Venn Diagram, of people who love football, and people who love Eurovision, is quite small

I’m in that cross over but missing both 😭😭

Not a Scottish football fan by any means but really hope Hearts win the lieague today if only for a different name on the trophy. It's so boring otherwise.

Like @Makemeinvisibleand @BrontisaurusI’m very invested in the Old Firm game today, albeit for the other team 😅 (Celtic if you’re not au fait with Scottish football).

Old firm game ? Old firm game!

I don't think Hearts will take kindly to being morphed into Rangers!

YABU. The Cup Final has been degraded by the inevitable appearance of the oligarch / oil states / Superleague cartel clubs. Can't wait for Man City's 112 charges to be punished and only hope they're not let off with a fine, like the Chelsea cheats.

Henowner · 16/05/2026 11:48

It's a fantastic day @Lunarlightning !

I don't have a preferred winner in the FA Cup, good luck 🤞

ilovesooty · 16/05/2026 11:44

I'm at Wembley today and I'll be watching Eurovision in my hotel room tonight. Going home tomorrow.

Well I can't stand Eurovision and I'm afraid I dislike both teams in the FA Cup final. But I hope you enjoy your perfect day.

Personally I'm very much invested in the Celtic Hearts title decider today. I won't enjoy it - unless Hearts take very decisive lead early on, and even then it will be nail biting until the final whistle. But definitely the game adds a lot of excitement to today and I'll be shouting at the tv with enthusiasm

Come on Hearts ♥️ ❤️ 💜

RaraRachael · 16/05/2026 09:55

OH will watch the football while I do something else then he will go to the pub at night while my son and I watch Eurovision.

Works perfectly for us as we have no interest in each other's thing.

Doubtless with a switch over to Britains got no talent during the gap between the two, somebody pass me some red hot needles!!!!!!

Hey now, no need to start flinging these sorts of aspersions about.

Bigearringsbigsmile · 16/05/2026 09:48

Yep- having a party here! Just hoping the rain stays away as we're planning a bbq!

RampantIvy · 16/05/2026 09:42

It's just great when people rain on your parade although, admittedly, I did drizzle on the cup final part 😁

Makemeinvisible · 16/05/2026 09:38

Absolutely @Brontisaurus !!!

Buscobel · 16/05/2026 09:38

Each to his own!

Watching football and Eurovision are not activities that happen in this house.

Yes! Amazing how the Scottish league has turned out. Usually dull as ditchwater but finally a non-Old Firm club looking very good for the title, and proper down to the wire.

Everything crossed for Hearts!

Scrumbless · 16/05/2026 09:19

I don’t support either but that’s also what I’ll be doing!

My 13 year old and I will be watching both.

OrangeMochaFrappuccino · 16/05/2026 09:18

Football, I can take or leave. Eurovision, love it! Can’t wait. I’ve just re watched Eurovision Song Contest:The Story of Fire Saga this morning to get me in the mood. The British media is annoying me though as they’re stating how bad our entry was received on Thursday and it’s just not the case.

Holesintheground · 16/05/2026 09:15

Do they still sing Abide With Me at the FA cup final? Remember watching it with my dad. I'll be watching Eurovision. Can't believe they don't collide more often!
