    Since we last won a trophy winning 3 - 2 against Upjest Djorza (pardon any wrong spelling) and 6 - 2 on aggregate. Being 2 - 0 down at half time it must have been very nervy but step up captain Moncur, Foggan and Benny.
    Oh and also happy birthday to the late Joe Harvey.

    43 years ago,fairs cup nonsense.

    when newcastle utd last won a trophy in 2009/10 season back when they won the championship which IS a league, which HAS a trophy,


    is it because man u or liverpool etc dont win it its not a real trophy ?

    They say it because the CCC is not recognised as a major trophy. i.e. It's not a top flight trophy...

    Well put this right with the Europa League trophy next year....<whistle>

    Even though not winning much is frustrating, I don't get the idea that only 1st place is success. It's ridiculous.

    I agree on the basis of that in the last 5 years Birmingham have been more successful than Arsenal.

    lol but it all depends on what you've spent, how big you are, what you hoped to achieve ect.

    Liverpool won the Carling Cup, but have they been more successful than us this season or had the better season?

    Most logical people would say, no!

    They spent a load of cash on what were called top players, and were good odds for a CL place, but they finished 8th.

    We basically reformed our team, and got a new, under rated manager in, and managed to finish 5th, just behind 3rd place! We were in the same league as Arsenal and Spurs.

    I like this post, because we kept winning the Championship when we were yo-yo-ing and therefore have about 5 trophies since the Cup win in '73.

    Thought you stopped having birthdays after 21, does that mean I'm older than 21?
