The showpiece game has traditionally been played at 3pm although the kick-off time has been switched in recent years.

Man City won't declare this campaign a success, but they can still win an FA Cup and a spot in next season's Champions League, which is something worth smiling about.

FA Cup final has been handed a never-before-seen kick-off time just two weeks ahead of English football’s showpiece event at Wembley Stadium, thanks to a scheduling clash between the BBC and ITV. Manchester City will face Crystal Palace at the national stadium on May 17.
