Surely this wasn't 32 years ago, perhaps 22 (1993) or less but Rotterdam was 1982 (33 years ago)......

Think Barcelona, three sendings-off and Sid being launched into space.

I remember the excitement of winning the Super Cup against Barca, then seeing the trophy and thinking 'is that it?'.

How can you not be blown away by how impressive a piece of wood can look?

At my age and with the amount I have drunk over the years the sight of wood is both a relief and impressive.

On a more serious note and as someone who was at the game that is the first time I have realised Allan Evans clearly wasn't allowed to join in the celebrations.

Also, where was Paul Birch?
