    Well dpne Wigan. Another FA Cup fairy tale. Manchester City looked like 'we're here - give us the cup'. Been put it your place. Let's hope Wigan now avoid relegation! I would like to see Pardew back at The Valley!

    Best cup final in years.

    Wigan deserved it.

    Excellent. Always go for the underdog, but it rarely ever happens. Sometimes wish Dave Whelan would keep quiet, but delighted for him after the way he missed out on his own final. The man has built that club and deserves his day. Hope they stay up and hope they start to build their fan base after this.

    If they don't stay up, McManaman will definitely be snapped up. Great performance from him, amongst a good few of his teammates. Certainly deserved it, this was no lucky win!

    Good on Martinez, had the big money offer but stuck with Wigan. What price loyalty.

    brilliant! It may have been pushed to the side by Sky and the FA, but the FA Cup really does have some magic!

    Think it could have been a different story if Wigan had scored that early chance. Well done to them. Not enjoyed a cup final like that for years.

    Just watching the replays that was a cracking header from Watson.

    Congrats to Wigan. That's the magic of the FA cup to see the underdog win. Wigan deserved winners.
    Why can't the interviewers let Roberto enjoy his day without questions about the future?! It's bad enough that the FA cup is before the season is over without questions that are speculative. Let them enjoy it.

    ITV as shite as ever. Interviewing Dave Whelan & cut away to talk to Vincent Kompany & then cut away again for adverts, even though they had adverts 5 mins ago.

    Sacked in the morning,
    Mancini sacked in the morning!

    I actually like Mancini.

    Martinez has won more than Moyes ever has!

    Great result for all the limited budget "Little Ole" clubs!

    Totally agree Kap! City lack passion because a group of superstars do not add up to a team.
    You can't help but love and admire Roberto martinez (in the mould of SCP!).

    Great to see a different name on the Cup, as it was getting boring when only the Big 4 teams win it.

    It would be nice in my lifetime to see us winning the cup again...

    The way the fellas on ITV were going on you would be forgiven for thinking that Wigan were a non league club.

    Yes, it's a surprise that Wigan won - and good luck to them - but they are a Premier League club (for the moment at least) so found it all a bit patronising.

    premier league yeah, but they're a league one sized club really. Up there with the crazy gang. Roy Keane saying mancini needed to "buy more players" when they're gonna finish 2nd and runners up for the FA Cup. No wonder you cant get a job anywhere Roy... And how is 2nd and runner up a failure?

    I'm Buzzin and I have no love for Wigan other than following the little team win. And Wigan are a little team, probably cost less than a couple of the mercenaries on the Citie bench.
