I remember most vividly the QPR matches and all three finals as I was at them all. What I can't remember is, how the hell I travelled down to London for the QPR replay. I was with my usual mate and can only guess we went in his car, I just don't remember any coach or train.For sheer exhilaration the Old Trafford replay has to be somewhere at the top of the pile. I recall looking at my watch and saying to my two mates that if we were to get back in it we'd need to score soon. Cue Chris Nichols receiving the ball half a mile out and bang! The rest is history.I've posted before that when SBL scored his first goal the noise from our fans was something that I'd never heard before or since. It was like a crack of thunder out of nowhere. The accoustics of OT lent itself to then, before it became soulless.Got home about 4am happy as a clam, two hours kip and up for work. Brilliant!
I remember travelling to Highbury for the QPR replay never to this day understanding how a London ground was neutral when one of the teams playing was a London team. Went with my Dad and a mate, we sat amongst a load of QPR fans, seem to remember them all being very good spirited.Got a ticket for Wembley, we were in the non tunnel end very low down on the terracing, highlight of the game was a bandsman from the half time entertainment lost a spur off his boot and the second half was interrupted as players and officials searched the turf for the missing spur. Pretty dour game to be fair.Couldn't get a ticket for Hillsborough and only my Dad got a ticket for Old Trafford, never forget that Chris Nicholl 40 yard piledriver.
