Because its final day of the season for league 1 and 2, so not surprising at all.

Did the FA cup happen much later last year, I can't remember, sure people banged on about pitch condition, maybe that was the Champs league final.

Are they trying to do the FA cup final before any play offs are done at Wembley so the FA cup is a tad earlier, not really sure.

I would say league 1/2 deserve no other football to be on at the same time, but them the championship final day had premiership games on at the same time as well. Meh, even then missing one prem game and watching the Championship is one thing, a cup final is a completely different prospect, cup final on at the same time as the final league 1/2 games and barely anyone would watch them.

On current form it should be easy, but Norwich have been so bad lately they're exactly the kind of team that tends to make Arsenal look stupid :(

I'm more worried about West Brom away, they love Hodgson, he's done great there, players like him and they like that he's England manager, crowd will be right behind them, they've been very hard to beat this year and the players will be well up for seeing off the manager in style.

I think we will beat Norwich, but could easily lose to WBA, I think even with a draw against Norwich other results could still put us as low as 6th if we also lost to WBA.
 
Don't understand why the Arsenal game is so early but not on TV. Have to win this one, could gurantee us 3rd if other results go for us.

Thats the spirit! ;)
 
I'm so nervous. I can't express in words how nervous I am really, part of me is confident, because it's at home.

Anyway, I've got a lot on my plate, feels like I've been hit my an emotional train, so win or lose I'll nip in and post, but won't be posting too much after that. Hope you all have an awesome summer.

Wasn't the FA cup on the final day of the permier league last year or at least ont he same weekend that Man Utd wrapped it all up. I remember Man city being happy but no one cared because Man Utd won the league the same day or something like that.
 
Seriously hoping that we can do QPR over and that Bolton can get a result against the Baggies. I can't stand QPR, I can't stand Hughes and it would make my day if they go down.

It was last game of the season last year and it will be again next year.

The FA moved it forward a few weeks to help out England prep for Euros.
 
I reckon they'll be 4 teams on 37 points by the end of Sunday night. Blackburn are gone, even if they beat Wigan Monday night.

Was it? I specifically remember City tanking Stoke 3-0 days after the final last season so it couldn't of been the final day of the season.
