I must have watched this at least once every year since. What an absolutely brilliant day that was. UTC

They don't make days like that very often.

Hate to think what I would have felt like if we had been beaten though.

I still get nervous at the end, bizarre but I keep expecting Sheffield to equalise.

Yes. Same.

I worry he's going to give the penalty. I worry Wade's goals might hit the bar and go out for a squandered corner. It's endless...

It'll be the first time I've re-watched the game. I'd originally planned to re-watch it when I'd got the DVD for Christmas later in the year. Then horseface left and I couldn't bear to see his smarmy face soiling my TV.

I've seen the highlights and the goal countless times. But never the full game.

So it'll be the first time in 11 years for me.

Did anybody else think they had been awarded a penalty, when it was the first red card?

Never liked seeing highlights of this game. I was sat in the lower tier to the right of our bench. The camera angle makes it look like a completely different game to me. Wades goal especially. I just can’t relate to any of it.

Strange really, I don’t feel like that watching over highlights.
