Although I was only 9 I seem to remember the city coming to a standstill when we won the cup...it seemed to dominate everything weeks before and for months after, no? Some years later an RE teacher, who was not from cov originally and was not a football fan, gave an assembly and said he thought...

I bloody love international tournaments, I’m not at all patriotic I just love all the football. In this respect it’s cov before country every time. I will, or used to at least, support teams with cov players in them. Come on Romania, Sweden, Ireland etc etc

YESSSSSSSS!!!!!

YESSSSSSS!!!!

I’m not sure we’re supposed to take him seriously, just enjoy it when he does something incredible.

That’s him!

Isn’t he the lad from Southampton?

Ah yes, Sean Flynn. Now there was a player...

He might not be ripping up trees but I suspect if he were unprofessional/not following Robins’ instructions he’d have been pulled from the team a long time ago. Robins doesn’t strike me as someone that’s afraid to do that ie brown, ogogo.

That’s a great point. I’m not sure I’ve ever considered Bennet as one of our best. Clearly he is. I think maybe that whole ‘87 team just get lost in collective wonderment. In fact there were some amazing individuals that made up that team. Many of whom wouldn’t have looked out of place playing...

I thought he was hugely overrated and was well chuffed when he was sold...£750k? One who had a decent career but I thought looked good was graham Rodger. I think him and Steve livingstone spent most of their career at Grimsby. When Grimsby were half decent.

I know what you mean. He had waddle in his back pocket by the end of the game though!

I used to play in the same Sunday league team as him! Went to Mansfield, Leyton Orient...think he’s only just stopped playing.

Haha! I lived in Lahndahn Tahn at the time and I think Chelsea won the cup one of those seasons...might have been after? Anyway, the day of the cup final I decided to wear my cov top while walking through the west end. At one point I Essentially had a whole pub of Chelsea fans singing and...
