Still think we should be playing our home games at the 6 January 2002 stadium :-).Quote:

Still can't believe all the ****ing fuss they made about fans going on the pitch to celebrate. That's what "giant" killing is all about.
Maybe but it doesn't include idiots throwing coins at the players.Quote:

Wow, 15 years ago eh! For me the most memorable game I've ever seen at N.P. (since I was able to be a regular attender from early 1978 on). I thought I was going to have a heart attack towards the end. The win was all the more sweet because of the total arrogance of David O'Leary and the Leeds team itself. What a night.
a Cracking day, i remember making my way onto the pitch with my girlfriend at the time ( now wife ) i turned to make sure she was ok, saw fear in her eyes and a horse bearing down on us, she still talks about it today when telling football stories LOL
I have a few newspaper headlines in a scrapbook somewhere
one of the headings in one of the red-tops said " Welcome to the bear pit " , then went on to say that the some of the Leeds players said it as the worse atmosphere they had every experienced
They showed this last night on BT Sport 2. Half hour highlights.
It wasn't just the win of course, it was the legacy. It got worse for them too after 2005.

which leeds player said in his autobiography that day was worse that playing in galatasaray ? ? ?
