It was a privilege to observe our season climax and glorious success. Just sad that they couldn't be there too.

Thank you all for your past support. You can please some of the forumites some of the time but not all the forumites all of the time

However, his demise seemingly prompted our reversal of fortunes. We lost at Wrexham the Tuesday afterwards but then got into very good form and obviously won the playoffs. Thank you Grandad I've wasted my life in black and white, a pathetic act for a worthless cause

Although not strictly a Town fan (he was West Ham), I dragged him to enough NL sh1te holes for us to be his second team. He would have been there yesterday with the rest of us (his family).

Whilst I wasn't able to go yesterday my cousin was with his shirt I don't mind Roy Keane making £60,000 a week. I was making the same when I was playing. The only difference was I was printing my own - Mickey Thomas The area you are trying to protect at corners is the goal - Chris Kamara I once said Gazza's IQ was less than his shirt number and he asked me: What's an IQ? - George Best

Also Ron Rafferty Fan club we lost not so long ago, I also seen to remember losing Jock Dock Tower during covid. Those 3, and everybody else taken would have all been there in spirit yesterday!

I can remember driving home from Wembley in 2016 and Van Morrison’s ‘Days Like This’ came on the radio. Now every time I hear that song I play out the montage I would have created in her memory and for that day if only I had the technical know how. I thought about my Mum a lot yesterday who was there in spirit and despite the joy of yesterday’s match, the biggest smile on my face happened driving home to the North West last night when ‘Day’s Like This’ came on the radio again - now I have two mental montages.
