  1. As mentioned above, Chile vs Italy in 1962 where the presenter (a young David Coleman?) used those words, but you may be thinking about Portugal vs Netherlands in 2006 - the battle of Nuremburg:
  2. Home to former Rover Spit the dog El Hadj Diouf.
  3. Berger is a good shout. Alan Mahon was never going to displace Duff, but always looked good when called on. I always thought John Curtis was a better player than Lucas Neill. Probably more one-footed though.
  4. So who had 6 minutes for the brown envelope to reach the VAR office?
  5. And an absolute defensive masterclass by Baresi.
  6. And none of that ridiculous fannying about during the run-ups either 👍🏻
  7. And now Olivia is coming back from the jungle early on medical advice (I presume she keeps her appearance fee). Poor lad can't seem to catch a break.
  8. Reported as torn meniscus and MCL, and potential torn ACL. According to Paul himself, the injury occured halfway through the match. I couldn't imagine going 10+ mins on a busted knee.
  9. The first would benefit from some light editing, the second not so much:
  10. Just done a Rovers quiz on Sporcle and completely missed Alex Baptiste. I wouldn’t have got him if I had all year.
  11. When I was at uni during the ‘99 relegation season, the club ran a special offer for successive home games against perennial strugglers Coventry, Southampton and Charlton. We lost the first two and I missed the third.
  12. ‘There’s no easy games in this division, except maybe against Ipswich at home’ For some reason I think it was Shearer who said it. We then went and lost the match.
  13. The Bolton game that sticks in my mind was when Diouf dived to win a penalty, Brad saved and Diouf stuck in the rebound. Was in rather a bad mood about that one.
  14. Not sure, he might have fallen foul of Souness by that point. I've not checked, but I think Stead might have been alongside Dickov and/or Kuqi in his second season.
  15. I've got it in my head that it was playing alongside Cole that helped him score as many as he did (as happened with Jansen a couple of years prior). After Cole left, Stead's form nosedived.
  16. Released from Raith Rovers after eight months: https://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/football/63089939
  17. Another Rovers keeper around that time was Alan Miller - only played two games for us but was also our sub keeper in the league cup win. Sadly passed away last year. Only 51.
  18. In the period when Ronaldo and Messi were at Real Madrid and Barcelona respectively, they scored 85% of goals in La Liga.
  19. Man Utd went over a year without a Saturday 3pm kick-off
  20. I can't help but think Dailly might still be in our top 10 transfer fees paid. Cole, Rhodes, Davies, Grabbi, Brereton, Kalinic (£6m?)...don't know if there's any others.
