Scoreboard82 Posted April 23 Share Posted April 23 An unbelievable 40 years to the day since we beat Carlisle in our promotion season. Think it was Easter Monday? Carlisle were also contenders for much of that season. Saved a pen then broke upfield to score at the other end. Happy days. This from nufc.com: 1984 Carlisle United (h) 5-1 (2-0) Division Two P38, 73pts, 3rd/22 Keegan(12,54), Waddle(39), Beardsley(73,77) Coughlin(80) 33,458 Vandals broke into the ground before this bank holiday game and sprayed slogans on the pitch related to an ongoing criminal trial. A claim of broken glass also having been scattered was found to be false and after the offending slogans had been painted out, the match went ahead as scheduled. Kevin Carr saved Alan Shoulder's penalty and also a follow-up shot with Keegan heading United's third seconds later as play rapidly switched to the other end of the field. Victory and favourable results in the games involving rivals Manchester City and Grimsby Town meant that promotion was in reach - United having a seven point cushion with four games remaining.

Can't believe that is 40 years ago. I was in the corner for that one. Still my favourite season to this day. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

HaydnNUFC Posted October 4 Share Posted October 4 Best experience I've had following us, I reckon. Will never forget the ground being almost full and the atmosphere within 20 minutes before kick off whilst the warm ups were still going on. And this game was also the first one the ballot gods gave me as a success. And the seat they gave wasn't bad either. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
toon25 Posted October 4 Share Posted October 4 The atmosphere was fucking electric. You could see the PSG lot wilt as soon as they walked out Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dr.Spaceman Posted October 4 Share Posted October 4 Their ultras walking through the town making loads of noise probably helped us as well. Properly got everyone going before they were anywhere near the ground. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tiresias Posted October 4 Share Posted October 4 Unbelievable night. Probably showing my nufc chip on my shoulder but i was just thinking all the praise (not unjustly) Villa just got for beating Bayern Munich i don't remember much similar, just seemed to be treated as a freak result or typical psg. To bad it was the high mark of the season, but people shouldnt forget we should have beaten them in Paris too were it not for one of the most outrageous referee decisions you'll ever see, and then we would have got out of the group of death. Only reason I'm not more bitter on that is considering us last season no chance we would have got any further anyway. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
