I was annoyed when Dzeko equalised.

Stood in the SS we didn't know who had scored I was sober as I'd wanted to take it all in was regretting it I kept looking at the exit thinking fuck it I'm off I won't be able to handle the rags id turned my phone off, my mate who was pissed as a fart just put his arm around me gutted, as I'm stood on the aisle and the ball went forward with De Jong it was like been pulled with him as the ball went in I end up about twenty rows down on the steps with bodies on top of me I just couldn't believe it. I remember coming off the pitch after the final whistle and I just sat in a seat on the front row as balled my eyes out the emotions had been too much afterwards I couldn't even get pissed I was in such a high.

I thought come on there's still time.

Then Nasri let that ball for the Rs to throw in and I went berserk yelling at him (actually at the telly screen with the Argies' foxsport). On hindsight what Samir did, helped open their two banks as they had to move up the field for the throw in.

Next sort of blurry: NDJ had recovered the ball, moved slowly, passed to Kun, performs a one two with Super Mario, and finally total madness.

That's a moment nothing can beat it, greater than Escape to Victory for a movie.

I couldn't get a ticket for the day, so me and a few mates went to mary D's to watch it. I lasted until the 70th minute and just couldn't stand it any more so se left and stood outside the stadium. 5 minutes later I just had to leave and go home. I was emotionally wrecked. I was in the back of a black cab just about to get on the M602. Me and my mate were sat there and we could hear the game in the radio very quietly. As we went up through the gears entering the start of the motorway at Ordsal roundabout, the taxi driver said "oh you have just scored". I looked at my mate, we made eye contact and just shook our heads, didn't even utter a word, we didn't need to. Sat in the outside lane of the M602, I stare at the meter, it was nearing £20. We had just gone underneath the famous Eccles Glass Bridge, and the taxi driver started saying "you've scored, you've scored". My mate mumbled to turn the radio up on full volume, I thought the driver was lying, and I would have punched the c**t in the face if he was. The radio went up, and then it hit us what had happened. The taxi was ordered to turn around, and back to the Etihad we went. So basically, the length of the M602 my life had changed. The start of it typical city had kicked in, by the end if it we were champions.

great story that.
did you get in?

Yes. Sneaked in through the away section, so there I was stood in the second tier of the QPR away section cheering as the trophy was paraded around.

I had spent the previous two weeks in Thailand on an absolute bender with two other blues, we were arriving home on the Saturday morning before the game. The problem was as soon as I got back I was being picked up and taken to Blackpool on a stag party then back the next day for the game. Now we had watched the united and Newcastle games in a bar in pataya but that story will be told another day. My youngest son and myself have s tickets in 110, my eldest grandson had been texting and texting me all the time whilst I was in Thailand to let him have my ticket for qpr, so I was thinking being a soft fkr ok al you were at Newcastle 68 let your grandson go. I got back from Blackpool still jet lagged and still pissed out of my brains. So my grandson went with my youngest son. I had this Thai girl messaging me all the way through the game when we were 2/1 down in 88th minute she said Buddha will make sure you win, as she said everyone was watching over there. I was crapping it every emotion under the sun, when Dzeko scored she text again saying, Buddha say you win this now, then bang the letting out of pure emmotion I thought nothing would top Newcastle 68 but this was something else, by the end of the game my jet lag and My head had cleared, I was just glad my son and grandson were there to see it unfold,it definitely wants to make you turn to Buddhism, it was a dream, did it really happen !

Was in the Waldorf. Let out a war cry of "remember Gillingham!".

The day we won the Premier League (the first time), what was your gut reaction to Dzeko's equalizer? I felt quite pissed off about it. Just fuck off, I thought. Stupid dickheads, I thought.

I think that was the reaction of a lot of people. My words were something like "too fucking late now".

^^^This^^^, I'm afraid.... should have had more faith!

 

[Matt.D]

Never saw it live, was pacing around from block to block. Some c*nt was running round saying United are drawing when Dzeko equalised so as soon as I heard the cheer was trying to get clarification of their score. Just got back to my seat in time for Sergio's winner.
