- 732 teams entered and played in last years FA Cup. 711 knew nothing about the vote ๐ฅด Football is not how we used to know it as a kid. Richer getting richerThe FA and The @premierleague have reached an agreement to strengthen the #EmiratesFACup format and increase support for grassroots football. Swipe for details โก๏ธ
- Well today wasnโt your usually Friday at work for me @wembleystadium Canโt thank @karl_standley and the Lads enough for making me feel welcome. A superb shift. The attention to detail is on another planet The pitch is just ridiculous ๐๐ป Made a middle aged man very happy ๐
- Had a young lad come and work with me today... 17, not his choice! Absolute top lad, got himself into some bother and wants to change.. cut a 1/4 of the pitch and did some of the overmarking, was a natural. Now he wants to get into the industry.. Heโs made my day
- Oh dear ๐คฆ๐ปโโ๏ธ๐คฃA word for our groundsman @ben_kay8 - 4am this morning, sleeping for an hour under the tent covering the pitch - this is the epitome of what the #EmiratesFACup means to us ๐ Thank you EVERYONE who helped get today's game on ๐๐๐๐

- We have tears Serves yourself right Isaac for supporting Citeh when your from Wigan! Glory Hunting dirty manc
- Any chance @BorisJohnson @RishiSunak @lisanandy how are you allowing this to happen? Marsh green Wigan ๐คฆ๐ปโโ๏ธ
- Well finally had time to sit down and reflect on a weekend that I will never forget. From the first minute the boys made me feel welcome and involved me in everything that was happening. To help prep the pitch ready for an FA Cup final must be every groundsman dream
- Stage is all set up Could it be for our half time entertainment from the one and only @Adele ๐ณ @chorleyfc
