Alex 35060 Posted March 25, 2023 Share Posted March 25, 2023 I think it might’ve been this one: Elliott doing the chicken dance right in front of us. I think he later said he didn’t know what the fuck to do after he’d scored 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Howmanheyman 33121 Posted March 25, 2023 Share Posted March 25, 2023 First game of the 88-89 relegation season, was very uncomfortably squashed in the old away end. I was almost 15, took my cousin who was 13 and over from Belfast. Had to lie to my aunt and say the Armstrong Galley bus dropped us right outside the turnstile and she luckily believed my bullshit. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ayatollah Hermione 13857 Posted March 25, 2023 Share Posted March 25, 2023 Went to Blackburn in 2009 as a fresh faced 18 year old and watched us get twatted 3-0 despite looking half decent in the first half while Nicky Butt got sent off towards the end. Sort of set the tone for my other travels tbf. A lot of hope on Andy Carroll’s shoulders, I remember Still never felt we’d go down though… 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Billy Whitehurst 895 Posted March 25, 2023 Share Posted March 25, 2023 It was a boxing day match so, obviously, we didn’t win. My only recollection of the match was Mirandinha (he’s not from Argentina) getting subbed on. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

First and last time I was persuaded to go for some scran during the game so made my way back onto the leppings lane with a mate just as O'Neill scored the winner and so spoiled my celebration trying to jump up and down but not losing my hot dog.
