SteV Posted June 3 Share Posted June 3 56 minutes ago, Superior Acuña said: Today I learned (well re-learned, I was at the first leg age 7) that we played both legs against Monaco in 97 without Ferdinand and Shearer.... I'd been wondering if we should've gone further. Also learned I saw Henry play for Monaco. And also that UEFA's website is sloppy, cos it has Keegan down as our manager when it was in fact Kenny. That was the game where Henry knocked it past Steve Watson then practically ran on the running track on the outside of the pitch and still got there first.

Steve Charlton Posted June 5 Share Posted June 5 Why were the away fans locked out for this game? Incredible work in midfield from Beardsley with him on the deck surrounded just before the equalizer Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’m still aiming to be back in the dugout. Managing… setting the team. One last dance with the King. Heh… no… I would take a gig in the Championship I’ll tell you that. Some mid table side and then guide them to promotion. I’ve done it before you know. See ya later. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Easy to forget that other than the goal they got this save was the only one they made Pope make in the whole afternoon. Palm that one in and it's a different story completely Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kid Icarus Posted June 8 Share Posted June 8 Pope is really excellent at coming up with those saves after long periods of doing nothing like. Class mentality Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Optimistic Nut Posted June 8 Share Posted June 8 He was pretty shit after he left anyway. 30+, injury prone, had one good season after he left and that was about 6 years later with Leicester getting relegated. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

KDT Posted June 8 Share Posted June 8 (edited) Watched the 96-97 season review last night, quite a few bad spells early in the season that would’ve had this place rife for a Keegan sacking. Also took Shearer longer than I remembered to score from open play that season & couple of longish term injuries waste of money etc etc. Edited June 8 by KDT Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

As soon as he touched the ball there were massive boos and he absolutely cracked up on the pitch. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
