[Albion] Roll call - FA Cup Semi Final 1983/2019

[hoveboyslim]

Both my Dad and I. I’m now a year older than my Dad was then.

I’m not fully confident we can repeat this in another 36 years’ time

21 and 57 ... with three brothers at Highbury. With two brothers and two nephews tomorrow

Yes went to every rd in 83 ...

 

[janee]

Who was there in April 1983 and will be there tomorrow ?

Me! One of the best days of my life. Was 16 on top of a kiosk. Police had dragged all the males off but left me on top as I was female. Shook every Albion fans hand as they left at the end...

 

[chaileyjem]

yep. 16 and 52. first and only, as it turned out, trip to Highbury.
with my Dad in 83 who was 46 but he sadly can't make it tomorrow.
taking 2 of my lads (16 and 18) .
time just slips away doesn't it.

 

[portslade seagull]

Yep from me 20 - 56

 

[Tony the Pony]

Me, I was right in line with the Case shot as well

 

[cheshunt seagull]

Yes, aged 24 and 60.

Not there in 83 as my six year old self had no authority to dictate attendance but clearly remember being in the back seat of the car with my siblings whilst my older brother and dad roared the team on.

There at the goldstone (first game was weirdly the England b match when tony Adams scored against Italy).

There at the withdean with my dearly departed brother (who was a die hard despite being blind)

There in Cardiff with the whole family.

There working with the club to help promote and sell season tickets and 1901 debentures at the Amex.

There at lancing watching my nephew in the academy.

No claim to masses of away games or the kudos of many on here....but....

There tomorrow at wembley.

Don’t care if semi finals at Wembley devalue the occasion.

Don’t care about current form

Don’t care if (as expected) we lose

These are golden days and I’m gonna sing from first to last.

Come on the Albion!

 

[RustyKent]

Yes, 25 and married the week before. Honeymoon was in two halves! Missed the replay though.

 

[Heffle Gull]

Me. Right at the front. By the corner flag.

[Motogull]

Me.

 

[durrington gull]

Me!

 

[hans kraay fan club]

Yep. 12 / 48

 

[Shy Talk]

Yup, I was there too, at the clock end and had the perfect view of Jimmys goal.

 

[Mtoto]

There in 83, working tomorrow. Kick off is the start of the only two hours of the entire f*cking year that I can't make any time to watch.

 

[Wallace]

Yes and yes, unfortunately my parents didn't live to see us this time (they did get to Cardiff) but my son will be there with me.

 

[Arkwright]

Three of us from 83 going together tomorrow. Jolly excited, off to bed it's going to be a long day and night.

 

[Green Cross Code Man]

Yep, that Jimmy Case goal was pretty much my favourite Albion goal.

 

[Nobby]

Me and my brother
I was 24 now bloody 60
