KingKev 0 Posted March 11, 2009 Share Posted March 11, 2009 Fucking Italians is the only thing I remember. Pathetic racists. And the ref was a disgrace. Bloody awful. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MattM4 0 Posted March 11, 2009 Share Posted March 11, 2009 Few months before aye. Weird feeling of immense pride and total disgust from that game. my dad's funeral was on the same day. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NJS 4827 Posted March 11, 2009 Share Posted March 11, 2009 Excellent trip, cowardly fans, corrupt refereeing. I still think it would have been the ultimate in ironic victories if the ref had fallen for Bellamy's dive instead of booking him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MattM4 0 Posted March 11, 2009 Share Posted March 11, 2009 I kind of reminds me of the 2000 Fa cup semi against Chelsea. Can go in the same "so proud of Bobby's boys yet we get jack shit for it" bag Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ketsbaia 0 Posted March 11, 2009 Share Posted March 11, 2009 That one is from the home game a few months later I think. Those were the days eh! I think that's a second or two before Shearer spins round and elbows him in the face I was so proud of our team after that night in the San Siro. I can remember being amazed we'd played like we did and actually got a draw against the mighty Inter in their own back yard but well fucked off at the same time at the antics of both them and the referee.

JawD 99 Posted March 11, 2009 Share Posted March 11, 2009 Best away game I've been to by far. Cracking couple of days. So many bizarre things went on. From sitting on the main road stuffing a whole chicken down my throat like some ape man to strutting my stuff in some top night club (cafe something or other) while one of our mates was trying to chat a lass up who didnt have a clue what he was going on about (you're in frigging Italy man!). Sneaking bottles of becks down in the subway like a bunch of naughty kids as there was a drink ban on before the game (but the cafe's in the subway still sold them). Then of course, during the game dodging the hail of shite that flew over the top when we scored. Good times. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Geordieboyo 0 Posted March 11, 2009 Share Posted March 11, 2009 The San Shearo was the Mirror headline Was a portuguese ref wasn't it who kept giving their portuguese winger anything and everything. It is no coincidence btw that our shirt that season was fucking class and so were we. Our shirts since then have been shite, the team likewise Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Marko 0 Posted March 12, 2009 Share Posted March 12, 2009 Remember When Solano absolutely tonked the bar in the first half and the mags going absolutely mental behind the gaol when Shearer got his second, Absolutely superb. Wish I was there! How many mags went over? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
