    Watching Trevor Brooking tonight re-living memories of FA cup finals, looked like he was nearly in tears. Watching the Cambridge fans going ballistic at holding ManUre...................................

      Clive Allens winner at highbury in 82 pure ecstacy watching from the corner of the North Bank, that moment can never be beaten in my eyes.

          Beat Wealdstone 4-0. Then WHU 6-1 in a replay. Then it took Forest, running away with the league, three games to knock us out. Now that was a cup run. And we stayed up by the skin of our teeth that season.

                    Great days van-used to have a silk scarf round my wrist and was normally armed with a packet of hubba bubba and a can of rwhites. Just read a bit on the w.stone forum and they reckon 50 of them took the loft!!
                    Never forget the semi final-ended up carrying my ol man out of the park royal hotel at half two in the morning into a taxi-he was proper steaming.

                            Every season when we get knocked out the cups in early stages, you always get fed the bulls*it that the league is more important.
                            I wouldn't mind getting knocked out the cups if it did help us escape a relegation battle, but it doesn't seem to.
                            We get knocked out by lower clubs, yet still don't concentrate on the League.

                              We are in a small minority in caring about the Cups facto. Very sad as they are realistically our only chance of silverware. But fans these days don't seem to care about winning anything, just so long as they dine at the same table as the mighty Manchester United and Arsenal and Chelsea.
