Guest neesy111 Posted March 12, 2010 Share Posted March 12, 2010 Playing Liverpool and expecting to beat them, also European nights are special! If I had been around the 2001/03 years with the age I'm at now, I wud of went to everygame no doubt! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stifler Posted March 13, 2010 Share Posted March 13, 2010 You know you are top club when the media goes out of it's way to tell you their not but give you as much coverage on the papers and such. Even going down hasn't stopped them, loads of games on TV, more so then most Premiership teams, loads of coverage saying we would go down again and now loads of praise for being so good in the league.

David Icke - Son of God Posted March 13, 2010 Share Posted March 13, 2010 Europe, basically - beating all comers 6/7-1 over two legs until March when we'd get a dodgy draw against a decent side and crash out. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

ChezGiven Posted March 13, 2010 Share Posted March 13, 2010 Apart from the obvious, what do you miss about not being a top club? I miss those odd UEFA cup ties against Greek teams where fans would come onto the forum and welcome us to hell, only for them to get in a crazy fight with supporters of a Macedonian team who have nothing to do with the fixture whatsoever. Then we'd win 6-1 and someone would ban them all. Well, if we return to being a top club, what i will miss about not being a top club will probably be the fact that you only hardly ever started shit threads like this one.

Optimistic Nut Posted March 13, 2010 Share Posted March 13, 2010 Sporting Lisbon was the hardest to take for me just for the fact I really think we'd have won it that year. Not convinced we'd have beaten Valencia had we won in Marseille, and there was still a fair way to go, plus simply not good enough, in 2006-7.

I don't know, Valencia then when a poor team from what they once were and what they are now, and we were very good. The UEFA Cup the following year I was convinced from the start that we were going to win, and we were arguably the best team against Lisbon over the 2 legs and we would of won in the final had we of got there. Unfortunatly though we missed a few good chances and well we all know what happend in the 2nd half of that away game. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Definatly miss European nights, always regret not going to an away match in Europe. And the big signings, I know quite a lot of people hated them but to know your club could get some of the best players out there was a great feeling.

M4 Posted March 13, 2010 Share Posted March 13, 2010 Weren't Valencia champions of Spain that year? Indeed they were I agree with you, but I remember at the time feeling much more hopeful during the 03-04 campaign. 04-05 always felt like there was a shit storm right around any corner.
