The New Cold War

It’s been hyped up so much that you know it’s going to be a dire game.

We’ve seen it happen with FA Cup Final matches and I reckon – although I’d love to be proved wrong – that this one is going to be the same.

Both teams will probably play it close and tight and if they nick the odd goal will then defend it for the rest of the 90.

But…. there’s obviously no love lost between the players, so there could be a couple of sending offs and if that happens then it could be an exciting encounter.

I don’t know what to go for. I’d like to see a good old fashioned football match, but because there is so much at stake (financially too) we may see the former.

I’ve delved into my collection of songs and have selected some random songs done by each team from years gone by.

In alphabetical order…
