Spuds at Wembley FA Cup 2016/17 Semi-Final. Official Highlights.

If you don't want to know the score, don't look at the top of your footage at the very beginning !:biggrin:

Does it include Jenas at the end claiming Spurs were robbed, and Shearer laughing at him?

    In fairness I still struggle to watch these games in complete comfort, I have this tendency of actually going back and recalling my thoughts and feelings at the time.

    For example the CL quarter at Highbury, I remember the nerves and the feeling of dread facing Arsenal back then like it was yesterday, and I genuinely jumped up watching Bridge's winner again.

    Despite everything that's happened since, I can't recall ever losing it as much as I did when Bridgey scored that goal, no way back for the goons as they required 2 goals in something like 3 or 4 minutes. Wasn't it also the first time we'd beaten them in anything bar the league cup in about 9 years?  Great night, and would probably be my choice if I could go back and attend one game that I've missed, and that includes Munich and Bolton in 2005.

    I recall that as a big scalp for us and a big psychological boost, first significant win against them for some time.

    Arsenal really use to bug me back then. Any other team in any other era I've always fancied our chances of scalping, and if we took the lead always felt we could hold on, but with Arsenal? Not a bit of it, 2 up with 15 minutes to go? Nah they'll get a result, same again next season? Nah won't hold on, Mutu giving us the lead at Highbury, Terry doing the same the season before or Lampard the season before that? Delaying the inevitable, Gudjohnsen opening the scoring at Stamford Bridge vs Arsenal twice in two months? Fun while it lasted, Zola's free kick? No sorry 150k transfer Kolo Toure will cancel that one out. It got to the point I barely celebrated taking the lead against them because I knew it would be cancelled out.

    That's why one of my favourite games will always be the very last one at Highbury when we won 2-0 and Robben and Joe Cole scored. I realized at some point while it was only 1-0 that I wasn't paranoid about Arsenal anymore, I wasn't actually fearing an equaliser and knew we were going to hold on. Didn't have the ecstacy of the Wayne Bridge moment but lots of smug satisfaction.

    Now the roles are completely reversed and we slap them about, and I love every minute of it.

    For me it took about half a minute for the goal to register.

    Then I went 'slightly mental' celebrating !:biggrin:

    A 'slightly mental' celebration, repeated again after we scored the winning penalty v Bayern in 2012 CL Final

    Highlights were on BT sport's yesterday, forgot how much we outplayed them second half, remember watching on TV with my two lads 10 and 7, can remember their astonished faces when we celebrated the goal, and cameras panned over to gobsmacked Gooners, I was up at the TV screen as if at game giving them the finger and w**ker sign! Completely lost it!!

    If anybody is looking to kill a bit of time in the next few weeks (or months) i've published a quiz book about the club with questions from this century. The questions vary in difficulty so it's not too easy and hopefully not too challenging either. Here's the link (there's also a kindle version available).
