I'm not a fan of either team but love the underdog having a chance so have had £2.50 on Watford at 14/1.
The way football has been recently I couldnt resist!!

I've got a bet on Watford scoring first!

Elderflower14 · 18/05/2019 17:25

Watford goalie is a bit ham fisted.. The pundits say they have chosen the wrong one...

Awwww slightly one sided. Love that Wigan win out the blue that time.

Man City trophy parade on Monday night will be phenomenal, even better than last year 💙

cupoftea yep - who'd have thought hay! 😁

GeorgieTheGorgeousGoat · 18/05/2019 19:07

Watford surely? Confused

NaughtToThreeSadOnions · 18/05/2019 19:17

No georgie here you go taken from the bbc website
^Who qualifies for Europe usually?

The top four teams in the Premier League qualify for the Champions League (man city, liverpool, chelsea tottenham) while the FA Cup winners (man city) the Carabao Cup winners (also man city) and the fifth-placed side (arsenal) in the top flight go into the Europa League.

If the winners of the two cups finish in the top four, their places go to the teams sixth (man united) and seventh (wolves) in the league^

So todays game could have affected the european places in two ways

^If Manchester City win the FA Cup, then seventh place in the Premier League - Wolves - will go into the Europa League second qualifying round on 25 July.

But if Watford win the FA Cup, then the Hornets will go straight into the group stages - and sixth place in the Premier League goes into the qualifiers instead^

Yes, got it Grin thanks!

I was on a train and did not see it. No surprise that City won but the score was higher than expected.

Although Manchester City have won all domestic trophies, they have yet to achieve an even greater feat, getting Liam and Noel Gallagher in the same room together.
