Not forgetting watching Hudderfield on the concourse & cheering that result.A jobsworth steward targeted my son in trying to prevent him running on seconds after final whistle, despite 1,000’s streaming on. A charge from Dad at the back of that particular scrum resolved the situation.
What a day, goosebumps even now. I’ve never remembered much about the football, have never watched it back … just the tension, Powell was their best player, Solly The God.
Other highlights …. incredible mass singing before and at HT in the NS concourse …. so rare since! Knockaert the choirmaster of the Tomor song, that was such a great chant.
Disappointed that I didn’t see the players crowd surfing on the train or the tour of players/fans in West Street …. but that would’ve meant hanging around for endless hours.

I do stay to the end sometimes. It’s an all or nothing thing, worth staying long afterwards, than stand in that f@cking park n ride bus park for an hour.

The party began at Molyneux a couple of days before, what a day out. We tore Wolves to shreds, 8-1 would’ve been a fair score, a knackered Muzza and Knocky couldn’t tuck away a stack of second half chances on the counter. The players celebrated with the support for ages …. everyone knew.
Is it PotG?

Wolves and QPR were THE days, Wigan was the icing on the cake.

@Bozza - you have created an article about this anniversary on "The Daily Seagull" -
Also, the last couple of paragraphs seem to have been written from the perspective of last season.
Am I missing something?

This for me, carnage in the NS concourse, then going back out on the pitch with the ( by now pissed up) players coming out of their lounge in the East.

I never thought we would last this long, well done to TB and PB for keeping it going.
This, beer in hand, a little tit bispy. Was this when Dunk went running across the pitch, chased by fans?
Don’t remember that TBH…….but might well have been
