That one at Highbury, I was on Motd that night looking ****e. I had food poisoning but still went. We got lost on the way back and had a slight bump on what I think was Seven Sisters road...our driver jumped out and shouted at the other driver and used a racial term...I thought we were to die.
The league cup is dead. The fa cup is on life support. The c'ship play off final is the biggest one off game in domestic football. The fa and league cup finals are just excuses for a lads day out in london. It's sad but true
The FA Cup isn't on life support for non-league clubs. It's a massive boost to club coffers, a huge source of pride, an exciting time for staff and fans alike. And that's just getting through the qualifying rounds. I'll be rooting for Maldon & Tiptree on Saturday. That one day could make their whole season.

Tear in the eye watching this. I’m glad I was around for it and sad generations of others have not experienced the joy that was had back then
