Every time I travel into London on the Tube's Metropolitan Line, I pass the mightily-impressive new Wembley Stadium. It looks like no building I have ever seen before - football grounds and non-football grounds.

The new Wembley, with its imposing arch visible from many miles away, is massive. People will soon forget the debacle surrounding its construction and the huge cost to build it and England will once again be proud of the home of its national sport.

As Watford’s FA Cup run has gathered momentum to the point where we now sit just 90 minutes away from an appearance in the first final in the new arena, I stare out of the carriage window at the stadium with heightened awe, excitement and anticipation every time the train approaches Wembley Park station.

Having worked at the old Wembley in the early 1990s, selling merchandise at various music and sporting events (and even having been fortunate enough to have witnessed half a dozen FA Cup finals in the 1980's), I don’t feel an ounce of sadness at the demise of the old Twin Towers - even if they are the iconic symbol of England's greatest sporting triumph (1966 and all that).

It is because the new Wembley is special, and it is no surprise that the England Under-21 game against Italy on March 24 sold out in less than six hours.

So FA chairman Brian Barwick, now proudly clutching the keys in his hand, will be absolutely gutted if Watford and Blackburn overcome the huge odds and make it to the FA Cup Final on May 19. He and the world’s armchair fans will be desperate for a Big Two showdown between Manchester United and Chelsea. How dare smaller, unfashionable clubs gate-crash English football’s most glamorous domestic party?

Nobody outside the FA really knows (apart from Ray Clemence) whether the balls in the famous perspex bowl were conditioned, in order to facilitate the draw the FA and the BBC wanted  by keeping Manchester United and Chelsea apart in the semi-finals.

Fans of many clubs reckon this was, indeed, the case. Even Robbie Savage suspected that he and his Blackburn Rovers teammates would not face Watford in one of the semi-finals. So now conspiracy theories abound.

But this is a cynical view, far removed from the romance of the Cup which is always in the air. But, come May, regardless of who gets there, it will be one hell of a final.
