Probably just me, but the more recent finals seem to all blend together. They just appear less memorable or am I just seeing it through nostalgic eyes? | |

I just named every Cup Final from 1970 to 2000. After that I can remember some but no idea which years. They’ve just lost their meaning. Same teams largely, late kick offs, no real build up, teams in them have bigger fish to fry. | |

When was the last entertaining FA Cup final? on 19:22 - May 19 with 5046 views | peterleeblue | The point is I can tell you who won all the Fa Cups say 75-85. If you asked me who won last year I simply couldn't tell you! I doubt this one will live long in the memory either. [Post edited 19 May 2018 19:23]

Watching all the passing back to the keeper reminds us why that rule was changed. | |

The rule used to be that the keeper can pick up the ball from a pass back … but I am sure you knew that. That rule change is probably the one that has made the biggest difference to the game. It is strange watching matches from the past and seeing it now. | |

Yes me too, I don’t even bother to watch anymore it’s been so devalued, tragic really as it was very special. | |

I keep telling that to young folks, especially the mid-20s Gooner who sometimes comes to matches with us now... watched it again recently, had all clear cut chances been taken we'd have still won but something like 6-4. Beattie, Hunter & Mills all put in excellent tackles and I'm sure there's a quick bit of Cooperman Action | |

I remember watching the Crystal Palace - Man U replay in 1990 & for most of the game, Palace passed the ball around between their back 4 & then passed it back to the keeper, who then faffed around with the ball for a while, before rolling it out to another defender & the exercise was repeated. | |

Rule change was around start of 89/90 season wasn't it? Watch Liverpool v Everton 1989 Cup Final to see the passing back to goalkeeper from half way line | |

It was changed in 1992 as a response to much of the dull football played at Italia 90 (although that tournament is fondly remembered here because England did well). The Palace - Man U replay was one of the best examples of a game which I recall was crying out for a change in that law, but I'm sure there were many others. | |
