ArsenalFanTV have almost 350,000 subscribers on YouTube and their passionate, opinionated post-match interviews have attracted viewers far beyond the club's fanbase.

Former Manchester United and England defender Gary Neville has agreed to appear on the channel after calling some of the opinions aired after the Gunners defeat to Chelsea earlier this month "embarrassing"., external

Robbie has particularly fond memories of the 2014 final when Arsenal recovered from conceding two goals in the opening eight minutes to beat Hull 3-2 in extra time and win their first trophy in nine years.

"I looked over at Arsene Wenger and he looked a worried man, he could have been out of a job if we lost that final," he told BBC Sport. "It was typical Arsenal, we did it the hard way, but we did it."

Sammy, Jack and Ben chose a snowy night at Molineux for Fulham's No Guts, No Glory moment, part of a BBC Sport campaign to capture drama from the competition's illustrious past from every fan's perspective.
