We were on the old bank Witton with the Liverpool supporters and there was a woman behind us shouting, come on Kevin et cetera and my mum turned round and said “I don’t think that’s gonna do any good tonight dear” as the 4th went in, through Clemence’s legs if I remember 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mark Albrighton Posted August 5, 2023 VT Supporter Share Posted August 5, 2023 This game has a relatively prominent place in my mind. I assume Dion Dublin and Benito Carbone had a wager earlier in the day over who would score the best goal. Meanwhile, Alan Wright was thinking “Lads, you both get to hold my beer.” 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VillaChris Posted August 5, 2023 Share Posted August 5, 2023 Remind those half time relays round the side of the pitch? That was happening a fair bit when I started going int the late 90s and got the crowd involved. Some great games in the late 90s, coming back from 2 down at home to Arsenal was a brilliant afternoon if we forget the near tragedy at half time with Santa falling off the Trinity roof.

But wow...watching that, you realize how much the game has changed. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Speaking of "of old"...wow, someone actually got booked for encroaching on a free kick (0:23). I wish the refs would start doing that again. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
