We were shite, I remember having a particularly shite view too, I few rows back so head height was about pitch level!
QualityPosted this on here before - Got a short notice appointment for a minor operation on the Friday before the game which was on the Monday. Went in on the Friday for what should have been an 'in/out same day, couple of painkillers and jobs a good un' exploratory op on my knee, woke up to be told "we took some loose bone fragment out and repaired a tendon while we were in" so my hospital stay was to become 5/6 days instead with my foot up". Bollocks to that ... no doctor knows my body better than I do and my team needed me ! Signed myself out on the Sunday so I could go to the match on the Monday. Went with the supporters buses - I was in agony, the bus had to stop 5 times on the way so I could get off to throw up . Got back to the bus after the game, last one on, by which time I was actually in tears because of the pain and everyone thought I was upset because we'd lost , fortunately I slept most of the way back. When I got home my knee was swollen so much that my mam had to cut my jeans off like they do on Casualty. I have to admit ... Doctor knew better than me and also ripped me a new arsehole when I went back to see him the following week.

Ha here is the program. Check out my SAFC folder man FFS...
Ah ... will check taIt's blocked mate, you must have your settings to private or such like.
Yes that comment about it being ‘scruffy’, it was like.Can remember how bad we were and how scruffy Wembley was. I’d been to the League Cup final vs Norwich a few years earlier and been behind the goal.
Against Swindon we were about level with the half way line - the seats were shocking, the grub and drinks inside were eye wateringly expensive and dreadful.
We were abysmal on the day - Swindon passed us to death - we made them look like Real Madrid - I remember thinking they’d do ok in the top flight.
It was surreal when it was announced a few days later that we’d be promoted in their place.
I also remember a couple of other clubs, including the Mags, tried to push their claims to be promoted ahead of us.
Those t shirts were fukin class...!Buying a t-shirt outside Wembley with the words
“Newcastle field 500 unregistered players, but the score line remains Newcastle 0 Sunderland 2. 16 May 1990”
Bought it off Jim Slater, then a young entrepreneur, who was later to become the Financial Director in the early 2000s
If you bought your cans from two hula hula girls selling them from the boot of a red Astra it was me and my mate.Cans of warm hofmeister on Wembley way.
Lost my mate outside stadium, who was eventually found in homerton hospital after being beaten up by Chelsea hooligans outside a pub.
