Marvellous Scenes

[On the Left Wing]

Fantastic, just fantastic!!!

Watched first half in one pub in the Metro Centre and second half at the Walkabout .... all the Geordies and mackems were full of praise and all wanted us to win ......

What I thought was brilliant about the whole occasion is that without exception all the fans who then rang Talk Sport and Radio 5 mentioned our need for Falmer and that Cullip, Butters and Co did the same in their TV interviews ....

Marvellous that even amid the excitement of today, no-one forgot the bigger picture.

Tanya and I had a fab weekend (she's now on her train back home "sniff") and I have promised to buy her and Ben a new Albion shirt and have already penned in accommodation for Plymouth next season

What a marvellous day out I've had. Driving down to Cardiff in a sea of blue of white was fantastic, I figure every service station along the the M4 must have been wondering what the f*ck was going on.

I parked at Taffs Well, and got the train in to Cardiff. It is the first time I've seen the Millenium Stadium up close, they were demolishing the old stadium when I left Uni, and that was impressive, but this new place is in a different league!!

Then there was my seats, bearing in mind I purchased them pretty much at random, they were perfect, second row of the middle tier of the North Stand and directly behind the centre of the goal!!!

Atmosphere was superb, the noise immense.

And we did it. Held our nerve. Defended like demons, and turned the screw at just the right moment.

I think "Wow" sums it up nicely.




Full credit to the Bristol City fans, they did their club proud.

Forgot to give our mascot a mention.

She was great, never has a better display of cart-wheels, back-flips and splits been seen at the Millenium Stadium!!!

Parked at Taffs Well too. What a fantastic day....just too emotional now. Cried for the first time in years. God, I love this club.

You weren't the chap who trapped his finger in the boot of his car as he was trying to hang his flag were you?

 

[albionman]

Not me Orange. I've just counted 'em. All present and correct. Actually I think I now have twelve fingers. I really must stop drinking Stella !!!

Great way to get to Cardiff though. Had a walk through the village pending arrival of train. There is a bloody Harp Shop there ! Has to be the only one in the UK. Oh..and a barbers shop apparently ownded by 'Ade the Blade'. Scared the shit out of me

Hi ther just got back. Boy what a great day out. I got up at 5:30
got the minibus (thanks to finks) at 7:00 it went down to Tilgate to pick up his son then went to Burgess Hill to pick up some fans then went to Crawley Down to pick up fans from there. We traveled up the M23 and M25 seeing scores of Albion scarfs sticking out of cars, and quite a few stretch limos. We went down the M4 and at all the M4 stations, there were lots of Albion fans and people selling Albion souvenirs.

After that we traveled down the M4 across the River Severn into Wales (The first time I have left England). We went past Newport and saw scores of Brizzle City fans. We got into Cardiff at 12:15 which gave me lots of tiome to venture around the Welsh Capital and have lunch at MacDonalds. I bumped into Mendoza and Sheebo, and had a photo taken by another NSCer( I can't remember his name). Got into the Millenium and was amazed at the sheer size of the stadium. Watched the game beautiful result. I would love to tell you about the journey back, but I am off to bed, goodnight everyone.

P.S Is this a dream?

Went on the railway special, and still caught a last pint in my local. An absoulutley fantastic day.

Thanks to everyone today. Now it's up to you Mr. Prescott!

Glad to see you enjoyed the day strike95. All the best!

parked in the station carpark, £5 all day and a police guard.

Ian Hart did tell me too park in the Angel Hotel Carpark but the one we tried was full, but my son told me on the way home that there was another carpark for the hotel around the corner.

M4 was murder on the way home and some fool trying too set fire to a BC flag.

Strensham servs on the M5 (Cheltenham basicly) was full of seagulls.
