Title: Omens Post by: Ardiles on Friday, May 28, 2010, 13:34:12 I'll set the ball rolling.
Many of the key events in STFC history have happened when the year ends in a '0'. 1910 Reach the semi-finals of the FA Cup 1920 Enter the Football League 1970 Beat Napoli to win the Anglo-Italian Cup 1990 Win Play offs to reach First Division for a (sadly short lived) first time 2000 Relegation to third tier for first time in over a decade 2010 ? ? ?

It'll either be a play-off win, or our first ever defeat at Wembley. Which would be tragic, not least because it would mean we can't sing the song any more!

And in 93' we drew and lost to Leicester but beat them in the Play-Off Final.

And in 93' we drew and lost to Leicester but beat them in the Play-Off Final. I like it. Keep them coming!

Title: Re: Omens Post by: pride_of_wilts on Friday, May 28, 2010, 13:49:20 I posted these on the other thread:
The last time we beat Leeds before this season the year ended with a '0', The last time we beat Leeds before this season they were promoted, The last time we beat Leeds before this season we won the Play-Offs. In 1993 We stumbled over the line, having been in contention for an automatic spot like this season. We played the first leg of the semi final at home, the second away, Just like this season. We played Leicester in the Final who had lost the Play-Off Final the previous season. The opposition team played in Blue.

We've got the same end of the ground as in 1990 and 1993 (old Wembley obviously)! Title: Re: Omens Post by: chalkies_shorts on Friday, May 28, 2010, 19:35:53 In 1990 Sunderland were a bunch of arrogant cunts. in 1993 Leicester were a bunch of arrogant cunts. In 2010 Millwall are ......... well you get the message.
Also in 1990 I was an obnoxiuos fat bastard. in 1993 I was an obnoxiuos fat bastard and in 2010 I'm still an abnoxious fat bastard. |
