Ah remember it well.
Fond memory that one, I shall watch this with my 17 year old lad tomorrow with a couple of cold beers.
Poor lad has only ever heard my "old days" stories of a packed HR playing the likes of Arsenal. He has pretty much known nothing but lower league football and sparse crowds.
Looking forward to this.
This was the best it got in my opinion. We had a fantastic team this year, and the goals (from both sides) were sublime. To this day, I don't know how Keane managed that flick, and Suker was different gravy all together. Happy days
Yeah think you can access it afterwards.Nice! Are the games available for a few days or just for the time the game is on?
This was the Sky game where Richard Keys started dubbing us "The Entertainers". That team had so much flair, why did we not do more with the players we had ? McAllister, Hajdi, Keane through the spine and a group of good (not world class) players supporting them. What could have been
We had a piss poor defence, Hadji and Chippo went up the African Nations Cup and Keane got injured.This was the Sky game where Richard Keys started dubbing us "The Entertainers".

It's funny, but it feels like watching an entirely different club sometimes! On our day, when we were good, we could be as good as anyone. Trouble was we weren't good enough consistently enough.
We should have been pushing for Europe that season. The UEFA Cup should surely have been possible, if we'd only picked up a handful of away wins. Who knows how differently things might have turned out...
Some of the players on that pitch!!!!
Carlton Palmer was a strange one for us as well.
Thierry Henry v Paul Williams.World class performers.
20 years later we're losing at home to Tranmere!
Just Wiki'd him.Good signing for me.
Gave the better footballers licence to play.
Thierry Henry v Paul Williams.
Jeez.
Just Wiki'd him.
Completely forgot we loaned him out to Watford. Only played 30 games for us.
Just didn't really work out for him with us.
We lost 4-3 at home to Leeds and as great as we were going forward we were poor defensively.
Always remember Watford away last game of the season (and a sublime bit of skill by Hadji) and them singing "No way, you'll never win away" and I think we elegantly responded with "We are Premier League say we are Premier League".We lost 4-3 at home to Leeds and as great as we were going forward we were poor defensively.
That changed when he came in, he protected the defence and gave McCallister and the Moroccans licence to play
Fairly sure we had a very decent home record after his arrival.
Still couldn't but a win away.
Roussel wins his fair share though considering who he is up against!For a team dubbed the entertainers we were very fond of punting it long
