helmut_rooster Posted October 26, 2021 Share Posted October 26, 2021 Didn't Dennis Bailey QPR 1991? Maybe they are referring to "football started" in 1992. 9 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jackie Sewell Posted October 26, 2021 Share Posted October 26, 2021 I met Keith Ellis when he was a draughtsman, working for my grandad at Edgar Allens. He was a lovely lad, took my autograph book away and got all the Wednesday players autographs, plus those of a few other teams he played against. He was centre forward in the best Wednesday team I saw after the early 90s one. In the days of no substitutes, that side of 60/61 contained the same 11 players every game, injuries and internationals ( Springett and Swan) permitting. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bulldog Posted October 26, 2021 Share Posted October 26, 2021 No surprise there then - who did we beat in an FA cup 3rd round on a Friday night in the snow?? We kicked off at 7.45pm and Man ure were on at 8pm on BBC. Cue full time and Lilly Livered Lineker announced "So Man Utd are the first team into the 4th round of the FA Cup" even though our game finished 15 minutes earlier!

Cup replay Ah, the old 2-3-5 formation made for some interesting results back then. There was a 7-0 against West Ham at Hillsborough that season too If I remember correctly. Pitches ankle deep in mud through the Winter but some great attacking football to watch. All this modern coaching takes the entertainment out of games. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

katie melua Posted October 27, 2021 Share Posted October 27, 2021 Also, Ronaldo scored a hat-trick there when Real Madrid knocked them out of the Champions League Arguably one of the greatest performances I've seen by a footballer. Ronaldo was immense that night and got applauded off by all sides of the ground when substituted 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
