Who's the commentator? My favourite ever commentator, always so passionate when we scored and genuinely enjoyed his commentating and jokes

Forgot that chip and miss by Reddy.

What a way to end a game though. Four of us in the Surbiton Flyer that night watching it. We were fairly quiet all game then went mad. Bloke opposite us watching a screen on his own looked as miserable as sin and then ready to 'have a go' when he realised we weren't Chelsea taking the urine out of Spurs. He paraphrased Bogart in Casablanca 'of all the bars in all of Surbiton I had to pick the only one with Grimsby fans in. 😁


Through the door there came familiar laughter,
I saw your face and heard you call my name.
Oh my friend we're older but no wiser,
For in our hearts the dreams are still the same.

I was deployed in Iraq with a Tottenham fan who gave me grief for weeks leading up to the game. Watched highlights of the match on sky later on. I couldn't believe it and the look on his face more than made up for the crap he gave me.


Supporting the Mighty Mariners for over 30 years, home town club is were the heart and soul is and it's great to be a part of it.

Don't recognise Town on that clip. Good signings looking organised and well drilled. Showing the management of today a thing or two, RS take note!

Remember that night very well. That team was well disciplined and had a number of players with a point to prove.

No thinking about it, it was John Moore assisted by Dave Boylen.

I totally agree with that, I walked behind some Spurs fans on the way out and they were all saying how good he was.

Can't believe it was 12 years ago. A group of us were watching it in The Lescar, Sheffield. let's hope Slade mk 2.0 can produce performances like this.

Apart from the following round v Newcastle, I think it was the last time we've played a Premier League side. (Unless I'm forgetting something obvious)

Remember it well.  I flew back from Cairo just for the match - the last game I went to with my Dad, who sadly died a couple of years later.  He could only get two tickets right on the back row of the Main Stand, but it was well worth it!

I watched the game with my Dad in an Irish pub in Bruges. They turned the sound off as we were the only ones watching the game and we scared the excrement out of half a dozen Belgies when the winner went in!
