Discuss the game and your pre-match build up as it progresses. |

FA Cup is great. Always annoys me that we get such small attendances for these games. We aren’t the only ones but wish more people would see it for what it is. A great competition at every round. |

I’m in Gran Canaria. Fortunately WiFi reception by the pool is excellent. |

It's a shame a lot of the 'magic' of the FA Cup has gone. I remember growing up in the 90's and watching the FA Cup Finals on TV, it was MASSIVE. BBC used to have about 4 hours of build-up on the Saturday. Both sides in the final used to release an 'FA Cup Final song' where the players would sing it themselves (I remember watching the Man Utd team singing on Top of the Pops  ). Winning the FA Cup used to be as big a thing as winning the Champions League.

Loved all the build up, the whole day was magical as a kid, I would take an F.A. Cup final over a Champions league final every day of the week. Think it was different then, life was more simple. |

I'm not going, and neither is my son. He's lost all interest in MK. I don't blame him. The footy is ponderous, boring, uninspiring and quite frankly ruins a good afternoon out with friends. I'm coming quite closely back to looking forward to Saturday afternoons when we're away. I came back after a year off with the intention not to get hooked in again, and I'm not. Today's the first day of not getting hooked back in. I'd much rather spend the afternoon in the garden, in December, than spend my hard earned scraping a win against part timers. Good luck to those that are going. |

Will be watching from the way end today and looking forward to an entertaining game, should be a good one as Maidstone have said they will come to attack and are not playing for a replay |

I miss life being simple pre-internet, in general. Or at least pre-social media era. Miss the 90's massively, life was great growing up then. |
