I think I was at all the FA ties that season
Maybe not Scunthorpe
What a free kick. Beasant was a giant, unbelievable to get it into the top corner from there

I know the commentary by heart......Oh I say, schoolboy's own stuff!
.. A progressive and likeable coach.
One of the best days at the Lane. I was at the back of the Paxton, there was a metal fence and I perched myself on it for most of the game. Remember Mullers knocking himself out when he scored, and being carried around on fans' shoulders at the end of the game.
That was my first experience of seeing a Cup Final live. Happy memories.
Think Iv read somewhere that Davies grew up a Tottenham fan...Motson too!
Was at this game also.
People tend to forget the Wolves goal. An absolute screamer in the top corner, from Wagstaffe.
36 years ago today!!
Wonderful night we made hard work of it, but we came through in the end.
Real shame burky left after this, I think we could have gone on and done more, back then much like today interference from the top did for the club real shame.
Still gives me goosebumps. When Ossie hit the crossbar I was convinced that our chance had passed, seemed an age before the ball came back into Robbo. What a night that was, will forever be etched into the memory.
Blimey, 35 years ago! One of the games that stick in the memory.
I thought we were going to win the league that season. Should have won it 84/5 and adding Waddle and Allen thought we had a great chance. We stuffed a few at home early on but went to pieces and finished mid table, terrible given the squad we had. Some of the early home wins that season though were as good as i've ever seen.
I met Davies once and asked him, yes he was always a Spurs fan. Immensely proud of the fact that no one could ever tell from his commentaries, he worked hard to be impartial.
Motty's just a fucking anorak who's clueless. No way is he Spurs.
Davies and Brian Moore of ITV were the best commentators by far in that era. Moore was Gillingham, and hated it when they lost. I once saw footage (when no one knew the cameras were rolling) of the ITV group gathered on the pitch after post match interviews. They were trying to find out the other results (kids ask your parents). Turned out Gills had lost. One of the crew started laughing, Moore went ape, wanting to know who it was, threatening them with the sack.
