Also, getting on the pitch when we won at home to Bristol City. Chelsea semi's... Great memories Oh yes I remember being part of the pitch invasion v Bristol City and running past the North Stand where some nice looking girls from my School were shouting my name and waving at me. Felt a million dollars!!! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
asteener1867 Posted November 12, 2020 Share Posted November 12, 2020 I think t was Blackburn at home, but me memories crap....Sheridan had been getting unjustified abuse for a few games, and t was totally getting on my nerves...He scored in front of the kop and I went ballistic!!!.... Wembley...Hardly lifted my eyes from the terrace from the minute we scored....apart from when...i think it was an inflatable dolphin hit me on the head....

AughtonOwl Posted November 12, 2020 Share Posted November 12, 2020 Amazing season. I had my first season ticket on Kop as a 16 yr old.. Ipswich away was a brilliant day. The Coventry Qtr final game was postponed, had to sit in their end when it got played. More Wednesday fans sat with us than Cov fans. The Semi against Chelsea and all them teddy bears! Cockney copper said why is everyone throwing teddies about? Didn’t know why myself. Always thought it would be like this Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Remember the coach I was on was full of people from my School, fantastic day with us winning. First time I had ever been to London. It was indeed a noon kick off which was gutting for me as I had two tickets but the earliest train out of York on a Sunday morning was 10:00am meaning I would never get there in time. Was in the pub the night before and me and my mate thought sod it we'll drive down. So we got up at 4:00am and drove all the way down at no more than 60mph in my clapped out Ford Fiesta. Had no idea where we were going once we got off the M1 and immediately took the wrong turning but fortunatley another car full of Wednesday fans spotted us and beeped and we then followed them all the way in to the ground. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It was surely our year... And when Sheridan scored thst goal in the Final. I couldn't believe what I was seeing, but 2nd Division Wednesday were clearly the better footballing team again that day, by a mile. No big time Charlie's in that team. They worked on that style of play, and we were even prepared to accept relegation with Big Ron from the 1st Division as the style of play always promised we would progress, and the 3-2 defeats would turn into 4-1 victory's. David Hirt's hatrick against Hull City at the start of that season was really the start of it. Every season for the last 25 years has been painful to watch because of what happened in the 90-91 season... When he's finished writing the book, they should make a film about it. never get tired watching that Harkes goal and that 91 team was probably my favourite team of all time as a Wednesday fan 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I also remember buying a ticket of a tout outside boundary park last game of the season as well - we were both up but we had also won the league Cup and really didn't have anything to play far apart from hand Oldham a last min pen to give them the title over West Ham. Some absolute memories that season including sleeping in the wooden South stand after coming back from Portsmouth away when Carlton got sent off and subsequently missed the League Cup Final. I got a ticket from a tout outside boundary park as well for 4 quid - 50p less than the ticket price. 2-0 up and lost 3-2. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’m looking for stories from supporters throughout the 90/91 season - from Ipswich to Wembley to Oldham and everywhere in between. Let’s have a chat. If you have anything for Alex - you can PM him at @Toadie or tweet him Will never forget that Ipswich game. We got relocated to sit on the pitch behind the goal. Paul Williams, what a player and foil for Hirsty. Had a blinder that day. The away support was amazing, great day... 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
