For me there was a bit too much passing around the back 4. I think their first goal was the result of one sideways pass too many. Some of Nardi’s roll outs gave me heart failure.

We had our chances though-their keeper made a decent save and Paal’s free kick came back of the bar. 3 inches lower and it goes in.

We ran out of energy in the second half.

Onwards and upwards.

I went to that game too. Had to duck under the seat as the coins started flying. At the end there was a pitch invasion from 3 sides of the ground. I don’t think the Leeds massive wanted to say ‘hard luck chaps’. Suddenly a squad of coppers appeared from nowhere and chased them all away. That was a scary moment. We were kept in for a LONG time. I think it was their biggest crowd for years. Was certainly loud when their winning goal went in.

Best;

3-1 against Sheffield Wed for promotion (fan)
2-0 against Arsenal-that Sansom rocket (fan)
5-5 against Newcastle (fan)
6-0 against C*****a (fan)
2-2 at Anfield (fan)
Zamora!!! (Armchair)

Worst;

Some game at Wembley in 1986 (fan)
Vauxhall Motors (fan)
That Cantona goal in Fergie time (fan)
0-5 to Wimbledon at Selhurst (fan)
At least not being there allows several other horrors to be forgotten

Can I give a shout out to a 3-0 against Palace at Selhurst. Ray Wilkins and Peter Reid (I think it was one of only 3 games they played together for us) ran the show. Palace were lucky to get nil.

Of course I remember the other classics, but my personal favourite is the 4-1 against Tottenham. And that Michael Nyman celebration of Stan to go with it

My list;

Raging Bull-brilliant performance by Robert de Niro
Chariots of Fire-told the story well-and that Vangelis music!
Bull Durham-good Kevin Kline performance
Forgotten the title, but the one about Jackie Robinson
Gregory’s Girl-just great fun
Bend it like Beckham was very well observed and touching
I thought Escape to Victory had its moments, while being rather far fetched

That 2001 team was pretty rank. I think it is why the 2003/4 season was so great. It really felt we had got our team back. Holloway was god. He’s a strange bloke in some ways but at the time he was just what we needed.

Marti Cifuentes just might be the guy for us. I hope he gets the chance.

They give you a badge or something similar to wear when you go in at the gate. No badges and they kick you out.

That was a great video of Aonach Eagach, thanks for putting it up. There are so many other great scrambling/climbing routes in the highlands. My favourite was An Teallach-very memorable for Lord Berkeley’s Seat (look it up). I wimped out. Pinnacle Ridge on Skye is pretty full on too.

Yes, I went to that game too. Thought Dykstra was decent and I still don’t know he was washed out.

My worst team would be;

Bankhole (that deep rooted fear whenever the ball went anywhere near him)
Ready (unready would be nearer the mark)
Warren (couldn’t pass or tackle)
Malcom (the slowest centre back I have ever seen-just edges out Gus Caesar)
Assou-Ekotto (the most uninterested player ever)
Park Jie Sung (terminally crocked)
Can’t remember his name-the guy who was nicking stuff from the dressing room (for team spirit purposes)
Iorfa(did his hamstring on the first run he made)
Wright Phillips (taking the money under false pretences)
Hateley (introduced to the crowd on crutches and it didn’t get any better)
Koejoe (looked like Les Ferdinand while they were standing still)

Manager; Redknapp
