Just breaks my heart. That game and the first 1-1 draw at Highbury the very best.
I remember both as if they were yesterday. In fact we were talking about it in the pub before the game Saturday.
Now just loyalty and that light is going out. It’s shit and no signs of improving.
Days like these are what makes all the shit worthwhile. That replay at the CG I was in the Shrivvy- I swear my feet hardly touched the terrace steps all evening we were so crammed in. |

Yes, 44 years ago. Also 30 years to the day we drew at Anfield. No wonder we’re fed up with the current state of affairs.
The fall & rise of Swindon Town between those two games. |

If we get these crooks out and get an owner in we're comfortable is doing the right thing for us, that light will shine bright again no matter what league we're in.
Keep posting Mate, seriously lifts me. ⚽️👍 |

There’s no footage anywhere of that goal even tried the Arsenal forum but only the replay was covered. Great memories and remember the 90+ coaches all lined up by the railway line where the emirates is now |

Why, when following STFC do we always need to be look backwards and not looking forwards with great anticipation...
Ah, I remember !!!!

Jimmy to answer you post...
Very quiet but with a large smile on my dial.
In fact similar to when Chris Guthrie scored the winner at Upton Park and again this time was surrounded by Hammers fans.
