I bet. I never went to that game. Never even tried for a ticket. Didn't have a season card in those days, was always quite easy to get a ticket or pay on the gate. I didn't go to Wembley as my youngest was 3 and we didn't have the cash as a family on one wage.In terms of the adrenalin rush, nothing will ever top that moment. The most mental celebration I've ever been involved in, bordering on the celestial. The Agueroooooo goal had a higher profile, but the tension by that point, fuelled by the ramifications of the rags lording it over us on an unimaginable scale, had reached a level whereby my overwhelming emotion was one of pure relief
Yep. We owe everything to the Jocks.....Wouldn't have been in a position to score "that" goal if Andy Morrison hadn't joined us. (Both heroes)
Made a thread a couple of weeks or so ago,"Dickov's or Aguero's".....wondered what the thoughts were on here....tough decision.Thanks. Makes me wonder where this club wold be now if he hadn't of scored THAT goal. Such a defining moment in our history.
96-97, 97-98 & 98-99 - The three lowest league finishes in our history IIRC and he was here for all of them.There'll be posts shortly telling us that if he wasn't so shit all season he wouldn't have needed to score that goal.
Yes, tough one. They were both defining moments or goals but I doubt we would have had Aguero’s without Dickov’s. I wasn’t at the QPR game but the celebration after he equalised was like nothing on earth. I remember the train journey home....it was really quiet as if we were all emotionally drained. As for Dickov he definitely wasn’t the greatest but he was a trier and got his rewardMade a thread a couple of weeks or so ago,"Dickov's or Aguero's".....wondered what the thoughts were on here....tough decision.

Funnily enough my emotions were precisely the other way round - huge relief at the Dickov equaliser keeping us in the game as I was seriously worried that if we didn't get out of that division at the first go we might be there for years and mental celebration at the Agueroooo goal for the end of 44 long years waiting for us to win the title again!In terms of the adrenalin rush, nothing will ever top that moment.

It wouldn't have made any difference without Super Kev getting us on the map with his 90th minute goal that day, let's not forget he also scored his penalty whereas Dickov missed his... Love Dickov but I think Kev Horlocks contribution that day is overlooked by many Blues.
