Crystal Palace v Man Utd (17:30 BST)
Good afternoon everyone!
We are 90 minutes away from kick-off on this super-extended FA Cup final day. How's the weather looking where you are? It was most un-Cup-Final day like in Salford this morning. That's just not on...
It's been six and half hours since we started our FA Cup build-up - but things are getting serious now. So let's bring out the big guns and hand you over to Tom Rostance to guide you through the rest of the afternoon.

The rumour is that it's Puncheon who won't play, but it's Zaha who's in tears... curious.

As Nick mentions, we've just seen footage of Wilfried Zaha being embraced by team-mates as they wandered around the Wembley turf in fine charcoal suits. Not sure what that means yet.
There's also a suggestion that Jason Puncheon won't be playing today...

BBC Sport at Wembley
No better place for a game of Wallie than the walls of Wembley itself. Anyone fancy a quick game of 60 Seconds before kick-off?

David Pleat
Former Tottenham boss on 5 live Sport
"I feel sorry for Louis van Gaal sometimes. He can be a victim of his own honesty. Because he’s foreign and doesn’t understand the British media, he seems to lose out.
"Whatever’s going to be done regarding his future will happen regardless of the FA Cup final. I don’t think the result will be the crucial factor. The directors will have made their decision."

Image source, Rex FeaturesLet's get the main event out of the way before we dwell on the secondary affair of the football.
Popular music artist Tinie Tempah, who has had numerous charters in the modern hit parade, will be bringing his hip hop/grime stylings to Wembley for the pre-match entertainment.
The FA has said the show will be "on a scale never before seen".
I. Can't. Wait.
