Can't stop watching Tommy Watson (ROCKETMAN)

Not sure if the count on Twitter/X, showing number of views is correct.
Currently showing 439k, I think I have watched it that many times myself.

The whole 3 games sitting in Weatherspoons before the first leg thinking if we could keep it to 2 or 1. and the chaos with Mayendas late goal and the noise underneath after the game finished, being in the town pre second leg but seeing smoke across the wear and seeing the videos of the bus arriving and the shear mentalness behind Ballard as he comes back from the corner flag with his shirt above his head. Trafalgar Square being so full it was closed, Mayenda equalising and then Watsons goal resulting scenes the like I’ve never seen in 45 years of watching this lot. There’s been plenty of lows especially the last few years but this short spell has given us one helluva lift . Right off to watch it again. 😎😂

The above is why I keep thinking to myself how can that 2 weeks of watching Sunderland be beaten? Hope I’m wrong like and we win a cup. Apart from that there isn’t really anything that is going to come close to it.
 
I have had a few moments watching the lads, beating the Mags, the Semi at Old Trafford being particular stand outs for me personally but the sheer audacity of the result, the timing and the pure shock and disbelief that something great was happening to the club I love whilst sharing this with my mates has never been surpassed.

Seeing that many people surrounded by absolute joy, unbridled was a feeling you rarely experience. I could care less about the promotion aspect, yes, another 46 games in the championship was not something one would look forward to but neither is the prospect of being pumped on a regular basis in the PL. None of that really matters, that day was something else and I was steadfast in my belief that we would win, we just needed to score one, which on the face of it looked like a long shot, but looking back in slower time, maybe not, we were gradually tightening the screw.

Haway the f***ing lads.
 
Some time after the playoff final there was a link on here to a youtube clip of Tommy Watson practising the exact same shot from which he scored. Training alone supervised by a coach, he must have put it in the net 10 times.

Anyone still got the link?
 
Can anyone put a sound file together with a collection of the roar after the three late goals so I can get a new ringtone for me phone please 😂
