Didn't get a ticket so couldn't go.... watched the match in a pub in Leek (missed the first goal, naturally)... and I really thought we would never win a major trophy
I couldnt get a ticket (well not for a sensible price), travelled down anyway with lads who had tickets and watched it in a pub close to the ground packed with boro, great atmosphere, was also able to drink during the game to calm my nerves.
What a day, what a weekend. What a journey. I’ve said it on here many times, at the final whistle me and the owld feller stared straight ahead, if we’d looked at each other we’d have been gone. A favourite memory.
Can’t see mfc ever being in the position to attract players of that calabre again , unless we have a takeover and massive massive cash injection.
and move the stadium further south of Birmingham.
the players of both teams were much more talented than we see nowadays
