Did I shed a tear? for sure. I've seen FC lift the cup in my 16th, 39th and 50th years but wow this was the sweetest moment I have had in the 35 years of following the club. The scenes at the end will live with me forever. What a weekend, glad we pushed the boat out on 1st class travel and a quality hotel. Four days of boozing has taken it's toll though, I'm off to Portugal on Saturday for a week and will be toasting the club all week.
Great to meet various forumites on the day too and swapping seats with Uppo as planned worked out fine. Great work on the diary Wilf, was waving to you at the end but we were all lost in the moment by then.
C'mon you ulll.
Exactly the same as me Mosher, and as a coincidence I've been in the end virtually directly above where we crossed the line for each winning try.
The surge of the Elland Road Kop end as LC went under between the sticks.
The tumbling high up in the heavens of the Millenium and ending up severals rows below in a Leeds females lap as PC cut back inside to score.
Only ended up falling the one row in front as JS went over for the winner on Saturday and they were empty seatsanyway so no damage done, only to my bruised left thigh.
Magical moments, all three of them.
