    Its literally the guys job to describe the game as a neutral

    They shouldn't be hiring ex professional footballers if they need folks to be unbiased for every match.

    There's a difference between a commentator and a neutral fan rooting for the underdog in fairness.

    Why? If someone doesn't have some level of bias when they watch football they probably don't follow the game.

    Thierry Henry, Martin Keown, Alan Smith, Ian Wright, hardly neutral analysts. Of commentators wanted Reading to win, they're only human!

    Reading were clearly the dominant team.

    When was the last time a team defended their fa cup?


    Chelsea won it in 09 and 10. Prior to that was ourselves in 2003 when we beat Southampton. Correct me if im wrong.

    Ever since that new Wembley has opened I haven't seen a fully convincing display or win from Arsenal,bar the Man City community shield match. Just delighted to be in another final, bring on Villa or Liverpool in the final!
