What's your favourite memory. Doesn't have to be match related.

Byrne down at Chelsea, his looping header took an age to find the goal also Rushie down at West Ham with his goal.

On fire with the memory lane trips JB aren't ya!!!!

Ultimately my personal Fa Cup run ended in heartache on both fronts. Not only did we lose to The Bin Dippers, I was nominated by The Caring Club as last reserve for Final tickets, which meant I didnt get a ticket for the Final. I'd attended every home match that season, stupid voucher system. To make matters worse, this bellend in my class was one of the lucky ones to get tickets and he only went to the games where the vouchers were being handed out (Plymouth & Ipswich?) He gloated a bit too much about it for my liking anarl

Plaistow tube station, eastbound platform, with my ex and her West Ham supporting family. A tube full of Sunderland fans pulls up on the opposite platform and, assuming all on my platform were Hammers, do the usual goading and finger salutes.

As luck would have it, EJ the Barman is on that tube and sees me, frantically pointing and waving, his face full of joy. Half the carriage sees what's going on, recognise me, join in with EJ and start singing "We're the famous Sunderland and we're going to Wembley".

I break my silence and, with my platform steadily building up of disgruntled West Ham fans, I put two clenched fists in the air and shout "FUCKING YES!" and join in the singing at the top of my voice.

Fucking brilliant.

Also getting tickets for the Semi Final was fun. In Sheffield I sorted me marras with touted tickets in our end but I could only manage the Norwich end. For some reason whilst walking to the match I delighted in showing me SAFC George cross & some twatty copper wouldn't let me get to the ground....he had the road covered and a stream prevented other access. I had to straddle across the river at it's least girth to get in. Happy days.
