I've spoken of it before, but I went to the '85 cup game, and the walk from New Cross station to The Den was a surreal experience

I like the word "surreal" but I can think of a more appropriate word!

 

Walking from New Cross Gate to the ground before that game in 85, was not  something you would want to repeat too often.

I wish they'd do away with drawing teams from the same league up to the third round. For the majority of teams the cups are about facing a different team, it's absolutely soul destroying drawing a team from the same league.

 

It would of course have to be computerised because the draw would be chaos if they tried to do it manually with balls haha

I'd sack replays for teams in the same league. Nobody in our tie is going to want a replay.

Winnit… 

I’d say this is our best route back into Europe this season…

Part of the game, if you want to avoid a replay then win it.

Ultimately I agree, if you absolutely had to compromise though that's where I'd go.

Yes the much postponed game, not really a pleasant night.

Freezing cold, and we were shite, and definitely not up for it.

I loved how their fans first thoughts after their win, was to run straight to our fans and chuck things at us. No thoughts of actually celebrating, although I suppose that was their idea of celebrating.  

Of course in the next round they played Luton, which turned into a riot, with them chasing the police onto the pitch, while chucking seats at them!

I was there in 1991 and they got 2 late goals to win 2 - 1 after we'd had both Rambo and Walshy sent off 

 

On that occasion I seem to remember our lot were up for it with some trying to get on the pitch. 

 

I made a hasty retreat

should we wear club tops or string vests for this delightful fixture?

Now you are just going to get vans full of lads looking for a dance.

 

It will be the best away end in years mind.

[MS0204]

Hoping for both tiers on this one, surely there are some regulars that may want to sit this one out with a warm cup of tea at home.. 

 

let’s hope this makes members, I think the away end will be one of the best this season
