FGR V St Albans City
reminds me of the fun times in the FA Cup
Decent premier league game on as well
West Ham v Liverpool - WH just gone 3-1 up
What a game 🤣🤣🤣
Gloucester away late 80s/early 90s always causes me too smirk.Quote:

I think that he was coaching at welsh league level until recently. Nice bloke. I remember him giving me a lift in his white Mini Metro. I was only a kid and he pretended that he had a Turbo button at the bottom of the car seat which made the car go faster. I was so impressed until i realised he was just putting his foot down on the gas. Crazy days :hehe:Quote:

I LOVE watching game like this....real football....effort....no passing sideways...backwards....back again....
Know it's a smaller crowd but also seeing them running on the pitch at the end to acclaim their team....just like I did when we beat Aston Villa to get promotion in 1960. There was also a photo of a young lad in his scarf....he will always remember this night.
THIS is true football!!
a Cracking game, really exciting end to end stuff
The Home Crowd loved it, reminded me to the old 4th Div days
Scraping a draw with Hayes and losing to Bath City you mean?Quote:

Obviously the cup run where we beat Man City and Boro. I can't remember us being 'giant killers' any other time.Quote:

Losing to Enfield was a particular highlight although it was memorable for the performance going on off the pitch.
QPR away in a replay was a laugh. The tie made more memorable as City had the gate receipts nicked from Ninian Park after the home game.
I was at the Enfield game in around 94.Quote:

Late 80s we beat them up there which I can remember.Quote:

It's the early 90s and I'm surprised I remember the 1-0 loss.
Middle aged man on the pitch at the end with a made up cardboard and kitchen foil FA Cup.
It’s 1974 all over again.
Corinthian Casuals (the other CCFC) were very unlucky to lose to St Albans City in the last round after conceding a 94th min equaliser at home and then going out on penalties in the replay, when most of the players had to play the game after finishing work! :-oQuote:
