Top man Ill enjoy watching that. Look toward to next years post????

It's not letting the 100 points slip, it's just that it was against Tranmere and Aldridge... I still find myself hoping the league one trap door gets them... Horrible little club.

Ace! Didn't know a goals roundup for this season existed, right never mind Bundesliga highlights Ill stick this on, cheers!

Ive just watched it from start to finish. Love stuff like that.

 

Not a bad 1st season watching the whites as a 5 year old!

Loved Nathan Blake I did.

Brilliant, loved that season and not seen some of those goals since they were scored!!

 

Funny how Scott Sellars goal at City was just how I remembered it, what a night that was

 

Frandsen's first season - what a class player he was

 

COYWM

Question that kept coming to mind watching that was....... Who made the decision to get rid of Higson for a more professional team and did it really see an up turn in sales (although I suppose it did given the following 10 years+ of success on the pitch and bigger followings)

Whereas I actually had it in my head that Sellars ran with the ball from halfway and beat about four players!

The club were embarrassed by the Roadrunner videos, would have been McBain. One of his many crimes.

 

They started producing "professional" videos more regularly e.g. Baptism of Fire. What they didn't get was you could just record the goals off MOTD if you wanted sterile commentary.

Tommo an Frandsen really were as good as I remember.

Some brilliant goals on there, better ones than the Blake one that McGinlay rated as his goal of the season I thought. I liked Sheridan's at Birmingham even though we got beat.

 

Loads of little details throughout it that made me smile. I noticed at Bradford away Bolton fans celebrating in the home end on one replay. Kevin Davies trudging away after we scored against Chesterfield. That miserable temporary stand in front of Normid. No squad numbers, David Lee playing as number 14 after coming off the bench. Not sure if it was just the camera quality, but Portsmouth away looked like it was played in horrendous conditions too!

 

Fantastic video!

I had this on VHS and I bet I've watched it fifty times. I was seven in 1996, and it was the season before I really got into football (only went to Ipswich at home, our only home league defeat). Love watching Blake's goal at Bramall Lane, around the 21min mark.

Only just met the wife to be unbeknown to me she had booked a holiday with her sister for me and her sisters partner they all revealed the dates which meant missing the Tranmere game I said get it cancelled I can't miss the last game her sisters face was a picture she thought I was jesting when she realised I wasn't her jaw dropped to the floor.

The Premier League lays down production standards for club videos that Roadrunner could not meet. This was widely reported at the time.

Steve Whitts flag hanging proudly at Tranmere,Mcginalys chest and goal at Mollenuex,Frandsen power bolt against city.

 

Love it love it love it.

 

Anyone got the exact minute for wolves home??

 

Isn't that Peter Smith on SSN now?

Who can name Dave Higsons last game covered??

Watching the footy of todays championship games are a far cry from those times. I used to enjoy the entire experience of match days, now I simply cannot be arsed. Shit fan.

thinking it's too obvious but Reading in the play off final would be my guess...

Yep, fair play to him. He's done well for himself.

I had this on VHS, remember getting it from the club shop at the Reebok when i was about 10, Jimmy Phillips was in the shop at the time and signed the tape for me.

 

Got it home, watched it with my parents and turns out Roadrunner video had taped over a porn film cos after the last game when the recording ended some tart getting shagged came up hahaha!

 

I wanted to keep it, but Dad took it back to the shop and brought me back a non-filth version

Trying to guess the team that played most of the season

 

Branagan

 

Bergsson

Taggart

Fairclough

Phillips

 

Johansen

Thompson

Frandsen

Sellers

 

McGinlay

Blake

 

Seem to remember Pollock and Sheridan playing quite often too
