Upton Park memories

I don't think Bojinov scored, but he looked very good, wikipedia says his first league goal was May 2009 (his only goal), then he left. In the intervening 2 years, played 12 games, most as a sub.

Geovanni scored after an awesome run by Onouha.

We needed a win and Charlton and Leicester had to both lose. In the event none of those three results happened.

Wasn't GD in issue too, or is that just me?

I thought nedum was involved but had him down as the scorer. Remember the geovanni winner in the Derby shortly after.

Yep, Geovanni and Bianchi were the scorers:

Great game that, there was a real buzz about the new signings. The first half of Sven's first season was a great time as a City fan, particularly after the depressing Pearce era.

It could have been, it was very much a long long shot for us to stay up.

Btw, Mazzarelli was the Swiss sub you were trying to bring to mind.

That's him. Quite a suave looking gentlemen iirc.

It was nedum who scored the other wasn't it?

I can't remember, by the time I got there we'd had a few (quite a few) beers. In fact I thought I'd probably hallucinated about how good the football was.

I've never had any bad experiences there if I'm honest, can't even remember seeing us lose there, and I wish I was going this year, but I'd forgotten they were moving, and was too late to order a ticket.

The former was considerably influenced by the latter, but it was a good start to a season (for us anyway).

I took my youngest daughter there as she wanted to do an away game where it was just the two of us, from 1--0 up we lost 4-1, she never went again unless the others were there as well!
