  1. Last time we wore a one-off shirt to avoid a colour clash. It ended up being made available for mass release by popular demand (in a reveral of convention). It was also green. Which will send people absolutely nuts now. Would wearing the home strip be any different to this v - that looks a lot like Brightons shirt now
  2. https://getyarn.io/yarn-clip/1ea984df-b9a5-4dce-aef3-b926439d2b28 I'd say 93/94 because there was still a 'pinch me, I must be dreaming' feeling even though 92/93 raised expectations and the growth showed no signs of abating Plus 92/93 we were pretty much promoted by October it felt like, whereas 93/94 just got better and better passing your expectations all the time. Establishing ourselves August, holding our own September, top half challenge (October), top half (November), challenging for Europe (March) and Europe in the penultimate game (April) On the other hand there seemed a slightly less frenetic style of passing in 93/94 (Liverpool h, Oldham a) as opposed to rapier stuff in my minds eye that the ground swooned over (Luton h, Bristol City) Personally got to loads more away games 93/94 which may prejudice this.
  3. Bet the ratio of pronouncing Shearer correctly wasn't high.
  4. Like the old ZDS cup. Which the league cup basically now is. Nottingham Forest v Leicester in the last 'Northern' Final didn't feel right to me.
  5. That league is absolutely anybody's.
  6. Didnt see it. Fair play if so but he's owed a few unlucky results still.
  7. I make that 6 wins in 12months for Bruce. 6 in 29 games.
  8. Definitely need a spend now. Not to enhance Saturday but because of inevitable injuries and suspensions
  9. That's a pet hate too. Such a cop out skill and risk wise and look shit whether scored or missed. Bring back unbroken run ups.
  10. Want a Harrogate or Hartlepool or Carlisle at home. Would cool for them and something different and a good atmosphere. Probably end up with Blackburn. Haven't had them in a cup game for, oh what is it?, must be two seasons now.
  11. Yes I'm sure it was us rather than the fact that he'd either done nothing (Southampton) or completely fucked up (Liverpool, Benfica, Galatasaray, us) every job he'd had since the blank cheque book and more money than the rest of the league combined at Rangers where he bombed in Europe every time. Twat of a bloke.
  12. Isn't that just the sort of craic you get in mixed pubs and around the ground at almost any game? Forest fans were going on about how welcoming we were and how great the city is (youtube, not anecdotal), for shame N.O not having a self-congratulatory small-time thread about it
  13. I just see the video for Disappointed by Electronic looking at all that jizz. In old money though we played really well and deserved the win

    Lee Charnley

    Why in the blue hell would they want this chinhead His vaunted commercial deals that stagnated the club in a boom period or his prowess at waiting ages for a return call from Barnes or Bishop telling him whether he could sign off on a loan deal for some stiff from Leicester.
  15. Yeah. Seeing a performance like that and thinking 'we don't need anything else' is so last-regime. Hopefully the opposite encouragement is there now that 'wow we can really kick on with a bit extra'
  16. Don't want to get into an arguement but I just don't get how this bloke isn't a prat. Makes endless content with himself front and centre then whines about attention that sounds akin to a rowdy bar, away end back in the day. Gets another video churned out about nowt though which is probably the sad bottom line.
  17. Frightens me at times. How consuming it must have been to turn individuals form completely around, to get the team playing really good football, to forge a team spirt, to improve results beyond recognition and to get the players this fit from the dreck that was inherited. I wouln't have it in me to carry myself well after that but he even does that too.
  18. I think so too. You cant simulate it so now they know the level they'll have to be going forward. Its a bit like not wanting to play a team after they've been pasted. Minds are just that bit more focused out of fear. We were fine against Spurs and good at Coventry but no idea how we played with such confidence at Old Trfford
  19. In light of Schar's goal today and Maddison long range prowess, when were so dominant but need that X factor to open the scoring - want this more now
  20. Carried on from the Arsenal game. Clean sheets. Domiant. In the end the goals that reflected that. Two different level of opponents and we just carry on. The only issues was whether the footballing gods would allow us to score, the bit we can control, we've been excellent in.
  21. Lets take this time to remember their wanky comments on their forum ahhhh satisfying
  22. Said its got Charlton 98/99 day one vibes about it in the build up. Much, much better performance than that, but still
  23. We've 800 more points in the 30years of the PL than these. (A bigger gap than Leeds/Leicester to Swindon) If we ceased to exist tomorrow, given its taken them 38years by the end of this season to get 640points in the topflight, there's every chance no mackem would live to see them over take that. How embarrassing
