I’ve taken a little insurance out I’ve laid Man City 90 mins so Man City to win in e,t or pens would be bloody fantastic

I was getting a bit Meh about it until they finished above us last season and then schooled us twice this season, quite how that happened at Selhurst is still a mystery to me

Poor Rooney, he’s gone from looking as if Coleen has dressed him for non uniform day at school to looking as if he’s about to take his first holy communion in that suit.
Am I f***.

I can remember the Alan Sunderland final but the Brighton 83 final I was just the right age to appreciate the day and Steve Foster‘s headband, funny what you remember about specific days.
Grealish (RIP) wore the headband on the Saturday final because Fozzy had been booked a few games before the final and was banned. He desperately tried to get himself sent off by getting a second booking as that meant the ban started later but the ref was having none of it. He did lead the team out in the replay though wearing the headband.
If I remember correctly, once Fozzy knew he had been booked and would be banned from the Saturday final, he caught the ball to try and get a second booking but the ref still wouldn’t send him off.

Great knowledge SSB, didn’t realise Foster didn’t play, I can just remember him standing out because of the headband, just like Kilcline with the long hair looking like a lunatic it’s a thing that is etched.

This is either a fishing trip, you're a Palace spy or you need to give your head wobble. At the very least our season is over if they win but worse they get into Europe and win a major trophy before we do...so no I want them to get thrashed.

bloody hell, now a player could pick up 10 yellows in a game with ease.

Yep, Palace spy it is
There are plenty on NSC who sneer at the rivalry, just in case you hadn’t noticed
It’s as you say, certain things just stick in the mind. I can still hear Brian Clough after Gary Williams scored a wonder goal against Peter Shilton effectively saying it was a fluke because “ nobody beats Peter Shilton from 25 yards”! Happy memories.
Forest also trained on our school pitch (Cardinal Newman) which was about a mile from the ground before a game at the Goldstone back in the day and someone nicked one of your players boots. I also know for a fact that one of your players also asked one of the younger female teachers at the school then out on a date. I can’t name names but he was Irish (of the Northern part).

Feeling for Pepe after that montage. I'd forgotten JUST how HARD poor little Man City have had it this year...

Nope, made me refocus on how much I dispise them. Especially their knock off Barcelona strip and their spotty teenage 'ultras' wearing balaclavas. Oh and who can forget their drum that apparently means they are best home fans in the league.
Eze is a decent chap though. Not fitting of Palarse.

Brian loved Shilts, he was great in nets for us, I’m surprised Brian didn’t blame Martin O’Neill for conceding the goal, he blamed him for everything else
