Eddie wouldn't go down that path, he's got too much class. Small beer in the build up though, I'm waiting for some Brazilians gobbing off 

I think NUFC has nailed the media approach personally.  Get everything out of the way at the start of the week, then radio silence.  Thankfully we’ve not got any Supermac characters gobshiting to the press about what we’ll do to them.

Do you remember Supermac"s patter before 74? Earned him Mac the Mouth. Did fuck all in the final,had one chance that bobbled up and he skied it. i was 12 and fucking hearbroken. The team pic for the promo was funny though, their was a split in his shorts and a bollock was popping oot

It was before my time, but my folks always talked about it when I was a kid, and before the ‘98 and ‘99 finals.  By all accounts Shankly’s teamtalk was pinning Supermac’s interview to the dressing room wall (according to Emlyn Hughes anyway - there was a man I couldn’t find likeable).

I’m not sure how to say this and I won’t tag the forum member in this (unless he wants me to). I’ve gone from the absolute pits to the highest of highs in a few hours. 

 

A wonderful, wonderful person off this forum has kindly met me tonight in London and gifted me his tickets. He wouldn’t take any money. We’ve had a few beers and a great time together.  My dad and I will be donating to a charity of his choice, as was his request. 

 

This forum, has been a part of my life for more than half of my life. I’ve met so many of you from this, and my life is better for it. I hope all of you meeting up for the first time on Sunday enjoy it, as you’ll make friends for life.


What a fucking place this is. I love you all.

Mac thought he could put Liverpool aeay on his own,but they had a young Kk and a winger called Steve Highway (sp) who ran rings around us. Emlyn Hughes was better than anything we had,too

We’ve had an awful day and an awful weeks. I’m with you and the other lads all the way. Disgusting what’s happened tbh.

This forum really does restore my faith in the fanbase at times.

 

A really nice turn of events for you @TheGuv. Hope you and your dad can enjoy it and the lads do the business so we can all eventually celebrate something!

Gutting reading this, special moment stolen.

 

If you find another pair of tickets ill be more than happy to chuck a few quid your way to start covering the cost, im sure there will be others on here willing to too

Don't post very much on here, more of a lurker but what's happened sounds terrible. People can be utter arseholes. More than happy to chuck in a few quid to help out.
