He’s just not got the right mentality to change the way he plays. It’s ironic that Obefami showed the type of nouse that we seem to lack so often. Maybe that’s what he was thinking about for half time, when the ball sailed over his noggin’. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Having looked at that challenge again, Valery was so silly to put a hand on his shoulder, think that is what gave it away. I think you’re right….. if he doesn’t it his hand on his shoulder I think it isn’t a foul…. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jimmy_D Posted 8 January, 2022 Share Posted 8 January, 2022 Even if we win the FA Cup in my lifetime, and I'm there to see it, I think I'll always wonder what it was like to be there in 76. With it being our first major trophy, winning it the way we did, against such huge odds... a proper fairytale cup run, while in a lower division as well... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Saint_clark Posted 8 January, 2022 Share Posted 8 January, 2022 We can put a face and a name to the moron on the commentary team now, Iwan Roberts. Talking about the new owners and starts with "you always worry new owners will want to bring their own man in". Christ, have they paid any attention at all? The bird at pitchside is alright though. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, maybe. Ralph can't win can he. Take him off early and it proves he has no confidence. He may well have pulled him at half time or early second half, but that's academic now. Totally different game on our hands now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

To this day I have a clear memory of meeting up with my 71 year-old Dad after the game (he was in the seats, we were in the Saints end) and his words were "You can take me now, Lord, you can take me now". And with Cambridge doing Newcastle, perhaps the magic of the FA Cup is coming back. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don’t know when the rules changed so that every foul is a yellow. Brain fats from both Yan and the ref. They were running along together and there was no attempt at any sort of challenge.
