  1. See you tomorrowpublished at 21:15 Greenwich Mean Time 24 February 2017

    Oh what a night.

    Sadly we've come to the end of tonight's coverage of the FA People's Cup.

    What a way to kick-off this year's competition! We've had laughs, smiles, goals saves and much more (by more I mean dabs).

    Well done to everyone who has made it through the next round and of course to everyone who has taken part.

    We'll be back tomorrow at 10:00 GMT for more FA People's Cup coverage when our attention turns to the Adult Females, Female Vets, Male Vets and Walking Football categories.

    See you then!
