Hello there and welcome to a brand new ars blog arscast right here on ars blog dot com

I hope you're well already for the cup final it's tomorrow the FA Cup finals tomorrow we play in the final of wembley tomorrow tomorrow

Except it's not actually tomorrow because I'm recording this on Thursday night

So it's two days away, but I'm still pretty excited I have to say I'm quite excited by the whole thing because you know

It's the FA Cup final and there's a trophy to be won and we could win the trophy and then and then there be hugs

It's great when you win the cup because everyone's kind of going yay and hugging each other

It's brilliant and who doesn't like to be hugged

Apart from people getting hugged by you know Jimmy Savile and that but generally generally people like a good hug

It's true. So that's what that's what I'm looking forward to trophy, you know

Hug hopefully fingers crossed not that I'm taking anything for granted of course

We have we have had our experiences in the past that I won't go into just now because you know

What's the point we've all been there? We've seen them happen and there were no hugs on those days not even

Not even sad hugs because nobody could bear to touch each other anymore because it was just so awful

So look we won't dwell on that part we'll dwell on the the good the positive part and

And the cup final and and stuff and I feel now that I'm starting to talk about it because I've had a crazy busy week

trying to organize all kinds of things

Now it's kind of hitting me that like in in two days time

48 hours from now will be will be in the midst of it. It's now 20 to 7 on Thursday evening and

Two days from now and Saturday evening will be like into the second half and

Yeah, it's gonna be good. I hope it's gonna be good. It better be good. It better be good. Come on

It's got to be good. Please be good. Just be good. Don't be anything other than good

That's all I'm asking for in the cup final. Don't be anything other than good from our point of view
