Everything were better back then. Oh hang on, no it wasn't.


I do feel gutted that I never experienced those cup final days, but the game has evolved and the fans have basically encouraged that and helped it on it's way. You reap what you sow.


Money is king, Europe is money should that's the priority for the top clubs. Im pretty sure any player in a team placed lower than the middle of the prem woukd still feel just as excited abiut a trip to Wembley as ever, and you could argue that javing the semis there gives this experience to more players.

I'm sorry Otta, mostly you are correct but the FA cup was better then, its not misty-eyed sentimentalism, it's a fact.


The season was over, this was THE showcase game, the build up, the cache and Ringos, I'd watch this over any money laden Euro knobfest anytime.


But you are right, money, money, money.

'bout now, I don't doubt it at all, and it ahoukd definitely come after the league finishes.


However, part of the reason it was probably such a big deal was because there wasn't a kot of football live on telly, and there was nothing else to watch. These days kids would rather play video games or watch other stuff which wasn't available in the 70s.

5 best players seen live:


Cruyff, Best, Ronaldo (the fat Brazilian one), Platini, John Wark.


Unfortunately I saw Cruyff in his last season playing at Barcelona and Best for Fulham, Ronaldo looking very uninterested for Inter, and tbh I don't remember Platini.


John Wark though.....what a player.

      Why would mice move? It’s not so much they move as multiply and spread    copy and paste rather than cut and paste  mice can and should be dealt with.  But not easily or with guarantees  i would say most people in se22 reading this have mice. Whether they know it or not

      If a food outlet has a mouse problem then it's likely to stay there until the outlet runs out of food, unless it's adjacent to other food outlets. Why would the mice move? And mice can be dealt with. If you are prepared to pay for it. Which, with some proprieters, is a very big if. I have no evidence that the problem has reoccured in its new inception, although obviously good owners keep the focus on good hygiene. You win the battle but the war continues.
