Yes. First one I think might have been Thorsvedt's first game? Might be wrong. Don't remember the pikey's turning up against LFC. Remember FM although I was at an England rugby International at the same time, and finally still a little embarrassed about putting up a major banner, funded by Redknapp supporters from the old site, at United home in support of Redknapp. Apologies again.Who remembers these three occasions , all of which I was there for
At WHL v Forest , one of the first televised games , I’m sure it was a 12/1pm scheduled kick off , and was stood on the Shelf,as ever , and there was a bomb scare and we all had to evacuate . Many went home , I went to the,pub and waited for the all clear.
Then one Xmas , playing LFC , when 1,500-2,000 Irons fans turned up ,,as their game had been cancelled . The LFC fans got move over into the park Lane behind the goal and the Irons , where the away fans stand .
That awful time we played Bolton wanderers and Fabrice Muamba collapsed , and HR thought their chairman’s influence at the FA , and his suggestion the England job was in the bag , and our season went down hill
Thorsveldt was forest too I think.I remember the Thorsvedt game, dropped it in didn't he? And obviously the muamba game. Not the bomb scare one so obviously wasn't there.
I was in the clock end in 86? when they let in a load of rent boy fans start of the 2nd half cos their game with west ham was frozen off.Actually all kicked off just a few feet in front of me,had my bird with me at the time,she had popped down to the concourse to the loos when it all broke out.It was hugely hyped up in that jason marriners book,where he claimed they took the away end from spurs at arsenal,in truth I dunno?50 of em came in,caused a little flutter,by the time our firm right under the clock moved over they happily sat encircled in an escort of old bill protected,if thats what you call taking an end??So much for the old hooligans only fight hooligans,they just had a quick windmill at whoever was close by,I know the truth i was 10ft away,i was reading the book just talking out loud to myself "what a load of bollock",bloke should write for hollywood.Yes.

I put a few quid in for that banner too, was the right feeling at the time.Yes. First one I think might have been Thorsvedt's first game? Might be wrong.

100% Redknapp fucked us and himself simultaneously..... silly cunt.I put a few quid in for that banner too, was the right feeling at the time.
Agreed, didn’t know that he had that arrogance until that episode. He’s an object of ridicule now , festering in the stands at Bournemouth, shame, loved that first CL campaign.100% Redknapp fucked us and himself simultaneously..... silly cunt.
he was right man at right time,more a Mr right now than Mr right.Agreed, didn’t know that he had that arrogance until that episode. He’s an object of ridicule now , festering in the stands at Bournemouth, shame, loved that first CL campaign.
100% mate, until then he had the absolute world at his feet. Have to hand it to the overlord... he knew. Made him a handsome offer to be our gaffer and take us forward and he didnt take it... the rest as they say..........Agreed, didn’t know that he had that arrogance until that episode. He’s an object of ridicule now , festering in the stands at Bournemouth, shame, loved that first CL campaign.
While I dont disagree... that season was the most exciting season I have ever had as a yid. We did things and played in a way that EVERYONE noticed. We got beat every now and then but on the whole we utterly destroyed teams with pace and guile.he was right man at right time,more a Mr right now than Mr right.
Only have to look at his sides (personnel wise),as mercenary as they come.Very short termist,which was great and got us out of a hole,but leaves nothing for the future,look at his time at west ham,portsmouth didnt build anything of a legacy for the club.Who did he sign or improve for us??I`d say no one,where as Jol improved or brought in carrick,berba,modric,Bale to name a few.Redknapp signs players good for a season or two,a bit like Jose,wont gamble his rep on younger players or unknowns.Loved what he did,but I dont really hold him in that higher regard.
Me too I put dowh in , what happened to the banner anyway.I put a few quid in for that banner too, was the right feeling at the time.
I agree completely,he was perfect for then,right style,management style,players he had,the whole club,support was lifted and we all carried the club.That is what I find most annoying about Levy and the stadium,if we had the euphoric feeling as a club,team,support like then,its what we had under harry and made it magical times.While I dont disagree... that season was the most exciting season I have ever had as a yid. We did things and played in a way that EVERYONE noticed. We got beat every now and then but on the whole we utterly destroyed teams with pace and guile.
That was the epitome of a Spursy side.
I fucking loved it mate, considering the precious season we could have ended up relegated... we were that bad under Wamos.
Yep. It was fun. The soul destroying Ramos era was over and the spreadsheet tactical 'fuck me did I really pay a hundred quid to come and watch that shit' days of AVB were not imaginable. Yeah Harry was a bit of cunt, but I wasn't arsed about that, I don't need a manager who I'd invite round to tea. Of course with the Poch we get the exciting football and the building of a team for the future, I wouldn't swap him for any other manager and any cunt who whinges that we haven't won anything can fuck off and do some research on how mediocre our results were before BMJ ( liked him as well ) came along.While I dont disagree... that season was the most exciting season I have ever had as a yid.

surely you`ll give graham and unhonourable mention too!!!thank god fat jacques went nuts and quit after a week.There's no doubt in my mind that BMJ was responsible for giving us back some respect and pride in the shirt, previous to that we were a laughing stock, all of a sudden we were winning three, four, five games in a row! Heady days after Francis and Gross!
surely you`ll give graham and unhonourable mention too!!!thank god fat jacques went nuts and quit after a week.
still dont really know anything except he was fat.How did that Jacques Santini thing ever happen? Most bizarre appointment we've ever made.
One day wamos. ... Absolute cunt, that went on to be a catastrophic failure at...... Real Madrid.How did that Jacques Santini thing ever happen? Most bizarre appointment we've ever made.
