Decky Posted 18 hours ago Share Posted 18 hours ago (edited) Got a bit emotional with that. My grandmother who passed away 3 years ago would have had the final on ITV cheering away and she'd have got a phone call from me right after full time just like she did after my first match at SJP many moons ago. Makes you tear up but reminds you how special football can be to families and friends and moments and memories made in the last few weeks will stay with us forever. Just brilliant again from WorFlags, near gone again just writing that. Edited 18 hours ago by Decky Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Heron Posted 18 hours ago Share Posted 18 hours ago (edited) The cup didn't really come to fruition as it maybe could have but I have to say from images it looked better than in person, I also have the benefit of seeing the plan which was perfectly executed. The busyness around it actually scuppered it. As for the rest,the Eddie Howe stuff was both deserved and obvious but in retrospect - I wish we just did the message on the East Stand personally. That was emphatic in itself (and could have been more). That song means the world to me. Explaining or attributing my experiences of losing both children through night and not giving up hope for a more wholesome life. The song itself depicts a perfect narrative for me (and others) of never giving up hope and is a modern version of my family motto.. NIL DESPERANDUM Anyways...onto the next one Edited 18 hours ago by Heron Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
HaydnNUFC Posted 18 hours ago Share Posted 18 hours ago As I’m in the East Stand I couldn’t really make out what it said. Now that I’ve seen it, it’s struck a chord. I’ve been listening to a lot of Sam Fender recently after Wembley, remembering how proud I was of him and this city when he was playing at Glastonbury almost 3 years ago. And given my recent personal struggles mentally as well as a good mate of mine losing his grandad last summer, who was at the last final in 2023 but sadly wasn’t here to take in a couple weeks ago, that song always hits a bit. Love every one of you lot involved in this @Heron Perfect nigh on every time. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
