Sunday’s Carling Cup Final between Manchester United and Tottenham Hotspur will be shown live on Sky sports 1 with coverage starting at 2.30pm (kick off 3pm). Last year’s winners, Spurs, are once again the clear underdogs in what could well be an enthralling final. Manchester Utd had few problems breezing past Derby County in the Semi Final, but Spurs had an almighty scare against Burnley. Since then the form of the Red Devils has been imperious, whereas the Lillywhites have struggled to find any sort of consistency.

I’m lucky enough to have snagged a ticket to the final, so what will I see played out on the hallowed Wembley turf?

My prediction is that Spurs will score first via a deflected shot from Jermain Jenas, but will be unable to hang on to that lead. Man Utd will win a dodgy penalty, dived and converted by Ronaldo. Berbatov (obviously) will score what seems to be the winner on 70 minutes - an angled header off his alice band. BUT in the second minute of injury time, Rio Ferdinand will rugby tackle Aaron Lennon, flattening him inside the box. Pavlyuchenko steps up and calmly slots the penalty into the corner. 2-2 and it’s extra time… I have seen the freakish events that lead to the cup winning goal, but if you want to find out what happens, you’ll have to watch the game!

Sky are delighted to reintroduce the previous Marks and Spencer voucher offer for a limited time only:
New customers to Sky will enjoy £30 M&S vouchers with any Sky TV package when they join online.
This Offer ends on 5th March 2009.

PLUS Free Sky box with £15 standard set up. Save £45 online (normally £60) when you join Sky TV online. Offer ends 26th March 2009.

This is a great offer and couldn’t have come at a better time, with the lions tour and the Ashes series live only on Sky this is a great time to buy Sky HD!

Sky customers can enjoy the widest range of high definition channels in the UK, with an amazing 31 HD channels available now – more than any other provider in the UK.

I just have a standard Sky box myself so I am seriously considering this offer, with a 42inch plasma TV normal definition TV just does not cut the mustard…….
