Funny, I said exactly the same to the wife the other day. We used to watch the players having bloody breakfast in the team hotel,, then the cavalcade to the hotel.
The spirit of the cup in that sense has gone, I blame the top clubs tbh. Playing kids against “ lesser” teams demeans the principle!

Also it's become very tedious seeing the FA Cup winners come from the same half dozen clubs nearly every year in the PL era.
And the Champions League has also overshadowed it. Getting into the top four has become a much bigger deal than winning the FA Cup. Hence the big clubs playing weakened teams until they get to the semi finals.Kevin1954 and Tony Wilkinson like this. -
It goes to show just how "worthless" the FA Cup has become nowadays. At one point there'd have been a thread long before kick off and not 10-15 minutes after the final whistle.

The scenes at the end were brilliant.
The players seemed to celebrate differently with fans back.

Everyone keeps going on about how wonderful the owners of Leicester are. I’m sure their fans were calling for them to leave before they won the league, or am I getting the time line wrong
