Your first cup final

[Paulie Dangerously]

First was the 2001 Birmingham League Cup Final for me.

 

Me and my dad went down on a bit coach to a place called Abergavenny were we were based for 2 nights with the match on the second day. It was a smallish place with not much there. En route we stopped at this remote pub in a tiny, tiny village and had a few pints in the boozer. My overriding memories of that was that there was a tranny in the pub and someone from the coach shagged a 15year old girl in the graveyard adjacent. This was at about 2 in the afternoon.

 

Day of the match we coached in to Cardiff early and I remember being surprised that they managed to stick such a big stadium in the middle of the city centre without it being an unmitigated disaster.

 

The match itself was a tense affair, Fowler's screamer and the first penalty shoot out I'd ever been at. I didn't watch any of them until Westerveld saved the last one when we all went nuts.

 

Was a cracker weekend that

Two questions?

1.Was it you?

 

2.Are you now the forum necrophiliac?

That must have been some experience as a fresh faced 35 year old. When George slides onto his back in celebration you should've run on to the pitch and sat on him.

 

Listen "shit for brains"

 

envy's a terrible thing,

Yesterday was the first time I was ever lucky enough to get my hands on a cup final ticket after winning it in the ballot. I'm not sure whether I want to go back to Wembley though. Not just because we didn't win (I went to the semi-final). I just don't think I like the new Wembley much as a football stadium. You feel like you're in a massive bowl. One massive, expensive, soulless bowl.

Would have been 10, pissed down all day.
