1. Spurs 1-0 Man City - Jan 1996. Chris Armstrong with the winner


2. which goal have you celebrated hardest? (we all remember a goal when we went particularly crazy)?

Crouch v Man City 2010


3. what would you say is the lowest point you have felt as a fan?

Chelsea winning the CL and consigning us to Europa was pretty gutting on the night, but I was over it fairly quickly.
Being on 2 points from 8 games at the start of the 08/09 season was pretty bad especially given the optimism going into the season


4. who is the most underrated player that you have had at your club? someone that you liked, but no one else seemed to rate.

Tough to answer but I always rated Chimbonda and thought some fans were too quick to want rid of him for Hutton

5. same as above, but an overrated player.

Zokora. Or perhaps noone really rated him...

1. the first game you went to see for your team, what was the result? Man Utd v Arsenal Jan 1987. United winning 2-0 (Strachan and Terry Gibson's first, and only I believe, goal for the club). Rocastle also got sent off in that game which saw Arsenal losing for the first time in ages.

2. which goal have you celebrated hardest? (we all remember a goal when we went particularly crazy)?

For some reason the Paul Scholes goal v Arsenal in 2004 semi final. I'd been getting so much stick that season for United being poor (still 3rd that season though!) and it all came out in that goal. We were also underdogs going into that game.

3. what would you say is the lowest point you have felt as a fan?

Probably the 3-0 home defeat to Liverpool in 2014. A truly depressing performance. Maybe the answer will be different if you ask again in a few months!

4. who is the most underrated player that you have had at your club? someone that you liked, but no one else seemed to rate.

Not really had many of those at OT to be fair but, at a push, I'd say someone like Silvestre. Never as bad as he was made out to be by some and better than every CB we have now IMO.

5. same as above, but an overrated player.
Very difficult to answer this one as even the overrated players we had were quality. I'd say quite a few of the current lot are overrated at times. Does that count?

1. Liverpool 3 - 0 Newcastle https://www.theguardian.com/football/2002/mar/07/match.sport4

2. Luis Garcia's winner against Chelsea in the CL semi final

3. Any time I saw Roy frantically rubbing his face on the touchline in that ill fated 5 months before FSG took over.

4. Nicolas Anelka, wish Houllier had bought him outright

5. Nuri Sahin, awesome at Dortmund, gash for us

1. the first game you went to see for your team, what was the result?

I'd be lying if I said I remembered a game I attended while still in nappies.


2. which goal have you celebrated hardest? (we all remember a goal when we went particularly crazy)?

Ramsey's goal in the 2014 Cup Final. I was working abroad and a bunch of mates had flown in to celebrate my 30th birthday on Cup Final day.

Perfect setup. First chance at silverware after a barren 9-year run that spanned my entire 20s, and we go 2-0 down within 12 minutes.

3. what would you say is the lowest point you have felt as a fan?

2006 CL final.

Lost both my Dad and Nan within a week of each other, and then narrowly lost our only CL final on my birthday a week later.

4. who is the most underrated player that you have had at your club? someone that you liked, but no one else seemed to rate.

Szczesny. Looks like he's finally found a club that appreciates him.

Derby 0 Swansea Town 2, yes Swansea Town is correct, they changed name later.

March 1963.

Day was freezing, the old Baseball ground was looking worse for wear, my we were awful, wonder why I went again but I was hooked.

1. Southampton H 1990. Result 3-2 win for United. I was 5.

2. Easy. Ole's winner in the Nou Camp. I was there and oh what a night!!!!

3. Aguero moment wasn't pleasant. Liverpool smashing us 4-1 at home not great either. City 6-1 too.

4. Ronny Johnsen. Outstanding CB who never gets a mention.

That is awful mate.

5. Torres. Great player but scary how many Liverpool fans have him as our greatest striker. Top finisher but relied on that burst of pace and as soon as that went he was exposed.

.................

I wouldn't have thought there were any Liverpool fans who had Torres as your greatest striker.

Rush, Fowler, Kenny and Owen were all better, I would have thought would be the opinion.

1: Tottenham 2-1 Middlesbrough, October 2001. I was 9.

2. There are so many, it's hard to separate them. Possibly Crouch v Man City.

3. Walking out of Wembley losing to Portsmouth in the FA Cup Semi.

4. Jenas, I agree with you Chronic.

5. Steven Caulker when he was coming through. I saw nothing whatsoever to warrant the hype.

1. Arsenal 2 Watford 4 1983
2. Michael Thomas May 1989 Anfield for obvious reasons
3. End of Wenger's reign was really frustrating. Always seemed just a couple of players short of having a real go before ultimately failing in the big games in April. Also end of George Grahams' reign was really dull. Basically an organised defence and then lump it forward to Ian Wright.
4. Really liked Martin Keown and he is often overlooked when people talk of our famous back 4. Also liked the goalscoring workhorse Brian Talbot back in the day.
5. RvP. Legs made out of glass and we won nothing with him. Gave him the captaincy and then he fecked off to Utd, David O'Leary also annoyed me. Mainly I think because he seemed to turn into such a winker when he left us,

1. Cant remember. Been going since I was about 5.

2. Easy. Norman's goal vs Everton in the Cup Final

3. Relegation of course and also the first Cup Final I ever went to vs Southampton. He was fecking miles offside.Sobbed my heart out all the way back to Manchester.

4. Been a few totally under rated players in my time. Likes of Veron, Siveabaek, Duxbury, Wilkins, Ince to name a few.

5. Sanchez Lukaku, Pogba, Matic.... I could go on. See where I'm going with this one?

1. Chelsea 3 1 Arsenal 98

2. Drogba's equalizer in Munich, although the most loudest i have ever cheered was when Cech saved Olic's pen in the same game.

3. Moscow bar nothing, thankfeck Munich happened because up until that point the rawness of it was getting worse if anything but Munich made amends and then some.

4. Eto'o.

5. Willian.
