Hovagod Posted March 4, 2022 Share Posted March 4, 2022 (edited) Man Utd fluked it twenty six years ago today… Or did they? Finally forced myself to sit through the highlights this morning and our chances were no way as clear cut as I had remembered. We just seemed to stop dead in the second half too.

HaydnNUFC Posted March 7, 2022 Share Posted March 7, 2022 Last game with a full crowd in pre COVID, 2 years ago today. Remember that weekend vividly, last normal weekend until last summer. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I haven't watched it back but Les missing two one on one's (iirc) and skying a shot with the goal gaping from 8yards is clear-cut to me. More so than shanking a shot into the ground and it bobbling in like them cunts. They got battered. Even their players....even Bruce!! concedes that Edited March 7, 2022 by Wolfcastle Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Coffee_Johnny Posted March 8, 2022 Share Posted March 8, 2022 I'd love to see the stats (shots particularly) for the 0-1 loss vs. the 5-0 win the season after. I was at both and, perhaps due to acquired permanent-embitterment, sense of injustice, and plain old dummy-spitting tantrum-itis I have suffered since then, I feel like the 0-1 was a more one-sided game. Probably wasn't, but fucking hell man Les!! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
madras Posted March 8, 2022 Share Posted March 8, 2022 On this day 24yrs ago I met my mates in the Forth, went to the match and watched us beat Barnsley in the FA Cup quarter final.......then straight after met my wife to get the train to London to go on honeymoon. We'd got married the day before. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fucking scary to think where we had been now without him. Probably stuck in the wankership with Lee Charnley as head coach Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Toontimes Posted March 13, 2022 Share Posted March 13, 2022 (edited) Friday 13th March Thirty years ago today Kevin Keegan and Terry McDermott checked out of the Gosforth Park Hotel and set off for the Lakes. They had effectively walked out on the club because the money they had been promised to sign players was not available when they asked for it. In particular he wanted to sign loanee Brian Kilcline on a permanent deal. Open war had once again broken out in the Boardroom and as a result the mooted Rescue Package, required due to the £6million debts, had not been agreed. With a home game against Swindon coming up the following day coach Colin Suggett persuaded them to return for the sake of the players, which they did. Saturday 14th March But after beating Swindon, Keegan and McDermott both set off for their respected homes and rumours were rife that they had walked out. John Hall and some of the directors shocked the press by turning up en masse in the press room with Hall attempting miserably to pretend there was no problem. Not his best moment, listen out for the hecklers shouting through the window! Sunday 15th March Frantic phone calls followed the next day and the Hall’s agreed to write out a £500,000 cheque to persuade Keegan to return. Thankfully he agreed to, until the end of the season.

HaydnNUFC Posted March 25, 2022 Share Posted March 25, 2022 That was a great side but imo the 2013-14 side before we sold Cabaye was better. We were 6 points off top after we stuffed Stoke on Boxing Day. Cabaye was sold and it all fell apart, arguably the start of the downward spiral to relegation in 2016.

It's crazy how the Liverpool game can still feel like yesterday yet the Wise 'era' feels a lifetime ago when there's only three years between the two.

Optimistic Nut Posted April 3, 2022 Share Posted April 3, 2022 (edited) We’d went ages unbeaten up to that point. Weren’t far off a late European charge, were flying in Europe & the FA Cup, Shearer signed his extension, Souness was picking Robert then bang, that game happened and it all fizzled out. O’Leary even stuck Solano on in the last few minutes just for the lolz. Edited April 3, 2022 by Optimistic Nut Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
