Was this really SIX YEARS ago?

What was the quote "we've been looking for a cupset over the last two nights and we've finally got one at a little athletics stadium in Brighton against the richest team in the world"?

Murray made a mockery of Jo. Steve Cook had his number. Thomson looked like Lampard. Anyinsah was our Ronbinho. One of my favourite all time Albion games. I was 28 at the time and I ran across the pitch, with reckless abandon, like an 8 year old (tanked up on sugar) having been told they were goong to see Justin Fletcher at the weekend,

My memory was the appalling game the Saturday before against the nine men of Walsall.

I don't know how we then beat the richest club in the world 3 days later...football is crazy

Remember being equally flabbergasted. The defeat to nine-men Walsall was a shocker

Still got the Man City commemorative T-shirt somewhere

2232: Absolutely remarkable. All week we've been hunting down cupsets, and late on Wednesday night we get a crackerjack. League One Brighton, in their little athletics stadium down by the south coast, have dumped oil rich billionaires Manchester City out of the Carling Cup. The real winner - football.

You made me smile. I thought that was impossible today. Thank you.

It was in the Official Match thread that you linked to, and I happened to have read it just before seeing your post.

No matter how good that victory was, the pitch invader in the electric wheelchair was easily the greatest thing about the night

Ha. Managed to blag a tkt for this from a solicitor friend of mine who'd been on call, and summoned to Crawley after one of his regulars had got collared lifting coats from River Island. I only got the tkt on the proviso that I'd keep him updated by text. Great night. Was it Matt Richards who took the decisive pen?

I had Manchester United fans congratulating me at the gym for about a month afterwards!

Indeed it was six years ago, Mrs Doc attended with bump in tow, said 'bump' is now 5 years old and loving The Seagulls

It was indeed.

What great memories, cant believe it was 6 years ago, watched from the very back of the south stand, and remember Kupiers getting up and casually walking away when he saved the penalty, proburaly one of the best games at Withdean

 

[Bedsex]

This was the one and only game where I've made up and started a chant. To the tune of Land of Hope and Glory, the words were "Our Joe's better than your Jo, our Joe's better than yours.", with reference to the mighty Joe Anyinsah. Ok, it didn't catch on, but I was mighty proud of it at the time!
