ITV were very complimentary. Pougatch got the cost of the team in pre kick off. Apart from that they were complimentary about how we showed the competition the ultimate respect along with Swindon and their fans by playing the best team we could.

I'll be interested to see how they react when the scousers play. I'm expecting a full on grief fest because they've got the Scouse variant of COVID.

Rumour has it the pundits and commentators will wear a black arm band.

It was strange at the end where John Bond for us and Dave Sexton for them are getting interviewed together on the pitch, that certainly wouldn’t happen today, but where the fcuk has 40 years gone..
That match was a couple of months before I got married (April 1981) and me and the wife had out 40th anniversary last year!!!

Oh nice one mate, being married 40 years is some achievement, I take it you wasn’t at this derby then being so close to your wedding ?
 
If a future wife says you can’t go to the match then it’s only a matter of time before she becomes a current future ex wife. ;-)
I had the radio commentary on in the back of our wedding car on the last game of the season in 1990. She never mentioned again that night to anybody or since then!! Much :)
 
RAWK is gold where we are concerned. They say we don’t matter to them, but they’re all talking about after being pre-programmed to say at the end of each post ‘but they don’t matter to us. Their achievements are not real. They’re cheats’

I’d hazard a guess that we do indeed matter to them, a hell of a lot!
Their trophy cabinet would have had a lot more in it if it wasn't for us being around...

What a shame :)
 
They said it before kick off. The Swindon fans were singing ‘who are ya’ and the commentator said ‘it’s only the best team in the world.’
I think we were there earlier in the days when Arsenal a good team and good guys with Thierry Henry them at his superb peak.
He came on to a chorus of 'who the f.ing hell are you?' Loads of other self deprecating chants and 'boring, boring Arsenal' stuff in praise of the gunners.
When you're 4 down after about 20 mins, you have to make the most of it.
'Best fans in the land and all the world'

Yes I was there. The company I worked for at the time (Austin's Steel, which later merged with Trumans of Trumans for Steel advert fame at MR) had 3 season tickets to use to entertain customers. I think I took a couple of guys from Bolton to that game, I think they were rags tbh.
Anyway the 3 season tickets were very useful as the season progressed,they helped me get tickets for Everton FA Cup q- final (home and away), the semi- final vs Ipswich, and the Final replay vs Spurs.
The directors used them to get tickets for the actual FA Cup Final, even though they weren't football fans at all,they just used them for the big occasion.
I had to pay way over the odds for the Saturday final itself, which really pissed me off at the time.
 
Keeps City fans tuned in. No complaints on ITV for me. Still not heard off BT wankers though. Three days they said, hopefully drowning in complaints!
Same here , BT ten day reply deadiline ends on Monday , then they get the phone call and everything is cancelled landline , telly , sport , mobile , the lot , bought a couple of phones on good deals last year and spent over a grand , so they can f*ck off if they dont take my complaint seriously , plenty of other alternatives.
 
She knew I was City mad on our first ( blind) date, as I had been to Maine Road that afternoon to see City play Bolton.
March 3rd 1979 if anybody wants to check up!!
