It’s very, very good. The musical bed is too loud compared to the commentary in places and some have said they would have liked more from end of Robins-start of Lampard era but it’s very well put together and presented.
Well done to those involved.

Who brings in an onion into a University Finance office in central Brum and starts chopping it up near my desk...they can feck right off!!

 

[Brighton Sky Blue]

They have got to get Clive back for these final 7 games.

When I saw this last night, I thought it looks like Rudoni.

Rudoni and Grimes love child...?

 

[Mild-Mannered Janitor]

I watched safely at home last night, tears rolled down my face at the despair, the memories, the journey and the the joy, what a brilliant few years we have had following some tougher ones, I will be a mess the day we actually get promoted, Met Office have already declared a flood warning.

 

[Bad Boy]

I've cried my fucking eyes out seeing and hearing my late younger brother talking to the BBC after the first game at the Ricoh. (10:38)

I couldn't concentrate on any more of the video.

Great work, credit to Tom CCFC as that's a real labour of love.

I'd assume the club will have something planned also, I remember them doing that video of the players thanking the supporters before the playoff final (?) and considering we've come along so much since we're putting out fancy 20 minute videos for wingers I've got high expectations

Goosebumps even the normal time of Torp winner against UTD you could clearly see Wright was on side corrupt barstard's.

He was definitely on.

This was the moment he got played through by O'Hare on the opposite angle, before Wright even touch the ball he was behind.

A brilliant video, but I think if we go up there really should be a full documentary of the whole story from the fall to the revival. I’m sure people will think I am sky blues bias, but I can’t think of a more remarkable story in the English football league. Relegated three times. Moved out of the stadium twice. Adminsitration. Yet here we are on the verge of coming back through it all. What a club.

 

[coop]

Ye seen that video so obvious he is on side.But great day besides the cheating premier league who wanted a Manchester final.

 

[Mild-Mannered Janitor]

That goal was devastating but again, maybe changed our destiny, the inevitable cup win against city and the drain of European cup campaign could have sent us backwards rather than this PL push now. Can see how it impacts the like of Palace etc

 

[Danceswithhorses]

Nice video, but as others have stated, the music is way too loud, and some of the commentary is barely audible.
Have to admit, i lost my composure when they showed the Wolves QF highlights

Only one close is Lutons. They went to non league and huge points deductions before reaching the premier league

European Cup Campaign?

Edit Oh you said the inevitable win against City - which was less than likely

True although never kicked out their city twice. Not actually being able to watch your local football team is the ultimate insult. I guess the only thing close is AFC Wimbledon?

Possibly though they did then proceed to sell up to Chelsea and make Kingstonian homeless so not exactly much sympathy in the end

Robbed of the best comeback in the history of the game and the best Road to a cup final

Still fuming

 

[Mcbean]

Two Man U fans in the pub last night just laughed it off as me being salty - bastards - just hope we beat them next season with a dodgy decision

He was offside just ever so slightly it was hugely frustrating but it was offside

I’m genuinely not at all angry about the result…or the disallowed goal. That moment was incredible. Probably the most euphoric I’ve ever been.

Everyone knows we should’ve won. It seems, that it was disallowed has made it more memorable for other fans too…I still get pitying looks when it’s mentioned. And people talking about how we were robbed.

Having said that, I was sat near the Man Utd fans…most of whom sheepishly made their way out of the ground but one or two continued to goad. Those people are fucking pricks.

 

[Torquay Sky Blue]

I was staying in London the weekend of that game, so made my way to Wembley across the city. The amount of Man Utd followers who got on the tube with local Southern accents was quite astonishing. They really are an obnoxious fan base who were given a club to support with no deep feelings or love .
Our road means everything to us . There's is just meaningless.

 

[ajsccfc]

Wright was slightly offside, it wouldn't would have been given if VAR didn't exist but there wasn't a shadowy cabal consorting to keep us away from the final, if there was we wouldn't have been given that penalty at 3-2.

It would have been given if VAR didn’t exist as the officials in the ground thought it was onside.

Ah yeah that's what my post was supposed to say, combination of autocorrect and my quality control doing the business again

 

[Sky Blue Goblin]

That United VAR call will always be one of the most agonising moments I’ve felt as a football fan.

Still don’t think they got the moment right when they drew the lines as not 100% the ball left O’Hares feet at the point they used.

But to be honest I’m just salty

 

[Sky Blue Pete]

The day before the efl trophy trip to Wembley my middle daughter at 14 had a 9 hour operation to straighten her back and spent the following evening in itu with her blood pressure through the floor

She graduated from Winchester uni last year and started teaching year 5 at a primary school in Coventry.

Her growing into a wonderful young woman has mirrored the rebirth of our club

What a ride

 

[Sky Blue Wozza]

Just watched it all the way through- so many bleak/ happy memories.

I loved that L1 winning side.

I hope we thrash Wrexham 9-0, but Dom Hyam gets a good reception.
