Keefaz Posted March 11, 2008 Share Posted March 11, 2008 'kin hell. 10 years ago tady i was in prague. 5 years ago today i was in milan this afternoon i shall be going to bishop auckland my life is some bizzare allegory to NUFC, Funny, I was thinking exactly the same thing the other day. Nick Hornby said it as well, like, his life was going down the shitter until Arsenal won the league then his life started to mirror the performance of his club. For my sanity, I might have to start supporting Man Utd. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

AlanSkÃrare Posted March 11, 2008 Share Posted March 11, 2008 My favourite NUFC-game of all time. Didn't believe it when Shearer got his second. Also when Solano hit the bar on the volley, I remember lying on the floor for the next five or six minutes not being able to move. Some performance and with such a young side (Bellamy, Jenas, Bramble, Bernard). Surely Andy O'Briens biggest moment ever. Andy Griffin will cherish that game and his goal against Juve now that he's playing his trade at Stoke. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
James Posted March 11, 2008 Share Posted March 11, 2008 Griffin, Bernard, Bramble, O'Brien. Why would that back line be infinitely better than the one we've got today? The midfield, and Bellamy defending from the front (or was Bellamy suspended for that one?) Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

JH Posted March 11, 2008 Share Posted March 11, 2008 It's just the fact that we went to Inter Milan, came away with a draw and were dissappointed because we could easily have won it. Those were the days. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

pedro111 Posted March 11, 2008 Share Posted March 11, 2008 I remember I was stuck at work for this and then heard an almighty roar from the canteen when Shearer scored his second! I was gutted to be missing the game but delighted that we drew 2-2 with Inter! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kanji Posted March 11, 2008 Share Posted March 11, 2008 i rushed home early from school to watch it on espn. I went nuts during those goals. Shearer's 2nd was a bone chilling feeling. Nearly brought to tears on how passionate that goal and performance was. You lot should check it out on youtube, the sea of toon fans rushing forward and jumping is brilliant. bit of an empty feeling now, will we ever get back to the CL? :-[ Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Big Geordie Posted March 11, 2008 Share Posted March 11, 2008 I watched this on TV with my dad. Would have loved to have gone, but I went to the Juve game in Torino instead some months earlier. Has anyone got this on dvd? Would love to watch it again. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Knightrider Posted March 11, 2008 Share Posted March 11, 2008 One of the best ever team performances I've seen from our club. Bramble and Bernard were immense. Shearer dominated Canavarro. Bellamy scared the hell out of their full-backs. Solano was dictating play. Speed was a midfield general. The fans were simply awesome. We dominated them for large periods and the character and steel in that side on that night made me more proud than anything else. Edit: I watched on TV btw, would have loved to have been there though. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Optimistic Nut Posted March 12, 2008 Share Posted March 12, 2008 Griffin, Bernard, Bramble, O'Brien. Why would that back line be infinitely better than the one we've got today? It was down the the manager organising them and telling them how to play. I'd say it was more down to the fact we had strikers who could hold the ball up and run with it (Shearer & Bellamy), and energetic, pacy midfielders in front of them.
