Wacky Train Timetable That Boggled the Blues…
Hold onto your bananas, Manchester City fans! The Wild Wembley Wanderers are marching once more, but they’ve been thrown a curveball more confusing than Raheem Sterling in a ghost costume! The sacred FA Cup final kick-off time has been set at 4:30pm, a time determined by the mysterious football gods after six whole days of silence that felt longer than a goalless draw at the North Pole.
The City faithful are now grappling with a travel conundrum as twisty as Pep Guardiola’s tactical board. The game, a tantalizing face-off against Crystal Palace, threatens to strand fans in the London labyrinth of transport post-match. With Euston-bound trains departing at times more precious than Haaland’s left boot, and penalties looming like distant storm clouds, fans are contemplating the horrors of coach journeys, expensive overnights, or daring escapes back to rain-kissed Manchester.
In this bonkers ballad of train timetables, fans expressed disbelief in unison, louder than 90,000 vuvuzelas. Social media’s been flooded with lamentations, while even football’s big cheese, Greater Manchester Mayor Andy Burnham, chimed in to demand a return to the good old 3pm kickoff—truly a time as sacred as inevitable transfer gossip. It’s a clash with Eurovision for TV eyeballs, but surely the Blue army’s mighty roars could out-sing any performer in sequins!
