I need to get something off my chest as it's being doing my head in. Micah Richards seems to be seen as a bit of a funny guy and a character, and really it's hard to disagree with that, but I've got to argue I don't think I will ever fully fall in love with the guy. The reasons is because I've always suspected he's one of the blindsided people that use the popular narrative to define their 'expertise'. 

 

I've heard him mock Rob Lee yet I can guarantee he never watched him play or was ever interested in his own success story as mediocre 2nd division player to England and the combative midfield general we call one of the best midfielders that ever played for us. I also heard him say recently that man city need 'investment' to claw back the premier league title, which is the answer id expect from a twelve year old.

But the thing that's irked me the most is his comments to shearer and lineker about the comparison between Newcastle and Liverpool fans last Sunday. I've got to say, I wasn't there. I went to every cup game this season and two years ago but in both circumstances like many fans, was unlucky. But from everyone I've spoke to who went, vocally (as well as on the pitch) we absolutely dominated them. Yet, Mr Richards claimed 'liverpool support was incredible and is always the best, BUT Newcastle matched them'....I'm sorry, I know we won, but I can't stand false credit. YNWA was drowned out three times, I've heard that from about a hundred fans so far that where there, and unless you were watching a faint transmission from mars the TV footage supports this tenfold. 

Now one of the reasons that Mr Richards said this instead of relying on his eyes and ears is probably because pre match the 'impartial' media was seen interacting with the Liverpool camp and their 'duty' to support the septic six no matter what the reality is. 

I thought our fans were simply incredible, we won the game 2-1, should have been 4-0. But our fans won that by a bigger score, it's a shame Richards is too full of his own ego and top six mentality to realise that. 

 

One man I give huge credit to is Jamie redknapp. Not easy when your team has lost a final, but he actually was able to switch off and give praise where it's due.

Why do people think everyone wants to know their opinions of Micah Richards? 

 

Also, Redknapp is mates with Jamie Ruben as well as pretty close to Jason and Eddie - hardly a shock he's now happy for us.

Are you referencing Micah's comments from "And the rest is football"? I heard that too and knew immediately he was full of shite.   I don't mind him and what he brings to broadcasts, as sometimes punditry is too serious, but that take was his hottest pile in the steaming shit category.

I can't bring myself to watch the Match Cam. Feels like it'll all be over if I do .

It's like watching "Newcastle win the Carabao Cup - The Movie"

You know the 'don't you know pump it up' song they played sometime after FT that we were singing along to, and now's a bit of a thing- does that have some history with us? I'd never heard it before (as far as I remember).

Spent a few weeks singing it in 2004/05 but with Nicky Butt as the subject when it first came out.

Love all the former player interviews about us winning, absolutely love it

It was the first song they played at full time that wasn’t some generic dance music

It's only over when you stop watching it.

Every kids football tournament team who wins it sings it (used to get on me tits)

Must be a generic cup final winners song and we are the last to the party

[Ginola14]

still processing this 

 

we may well have better teams and win bigger trophies in the coming years, fingers crossed  

 

but whatever happens I think this team will go down as all-time favourites 

 

bringing home this trophy against all the odds with such a likable group of players and manager will take some beating

How fucking proud does this make you.  Everytime they raised the volume, we Booed louder.

Why was Wembley playing it over the tannoy in anyway?

Do others clubs get that treatment?

Did we get to run out to Local Hero with O Fortuna playing as they lined up in the tunnel?

I'm fairly sure local hero will have got an airing.

Can't remember what but think we did get a song for us too just before or after YNWA. Think it was Local Hero then too.

They indulged both fanbases pretty equally. We had the SJP stadium announcer ok the mic in front of the fans announcing the line up, a VT of build up purely for us and then local hero played full blast.
