Totty Whites Posted May 20, 2015 Posted May 20, 2015 One of the best and worst days of my years watching the whites. 2 down then " Ooh ah Brannigan" saves that Pen and the world became a better place then on in! Every emotion was felt that day wou Quote
radcliffe white Posted May 20, 2015 Posted May 20, 2015 Fucking annoying before the game reading all turning up in their new shirts and 10k more than us,sweet in the end! Quote
birch-chorley Posted May 21, 2015 Posted May 21, 2015 I was crying my eyes out in that first half My old fella kept saying "loads of time left yet son" Mind you he said similar when we 3-0 down to Stoke in the FA Cup semi - ha ha Quote
emus wig Posted May 21, 2015 Posted May 21, 2015 Said to the old man if this goes in I'm going to sit in the car . The whole atmosphere changed after. Glad I stuck around ! R.I.P dad. Quote
Big E Posted May 21, 2015 Posted May 21, 2015 An absolute great day. especially after the dissappointment the month before. can you get it on the BT player? Quote
mannyroad58 Posted May 21, 2015 Posted May 21, 2015 My shittest day ever supporting the whites I was banned so i couldn't go Quote
Sweep Posted May 21, 2015 Posted May 21, 2015 I remember it fondly, I was on my way out when they got awarded the penalty, only to sprint back to my seat when it was saved (I didn't even wait around to watch it, as I assumed it was going in and it was game over) Quote
superjohnmcginlay Posted May 21, 2015 Posted May 21, 2015 face painted and a blue and white wig on flag round the shoulders, drinking Special Brew in the car park before hand. Then sobbing at 2-0 the rest was magical, Quote
Thorpey Posted May 21, 2015 Posted May 21, 2015 Living in Reading it wasn't the worst day of my life supporting the whites! Back to a boozer to meet the Reading lads, 8 of us weren't that welcome. I thought they were mates. Still talking about it now. Quote
GeorgeOghani'sIroningBoard Posted May 21, 2015 Posted May 21, 2015 The four of us in full Wanderers regalia on a train full of Reading fans going back to Wycombe. They never said a word to us. To this day my missus adds the word "bastard" whenever Jimmy Quinn's name is mentioned after he tried to have a go at her beloved Gudni on the pitch. Quote
frank_spencer Posted May 21, 2015 Posted May 21, 2015 Watched it on eurosport in the hotel at Disneyland Paris with my dad. Much to my mother's disgust she dragged my brother out when the penalty was awarded to 'go round the place we'd spent so much bloody money going to in the first place'. My mum's anger didn't matter by the end, me and my dad had celebratory milkshakes in the diner. Quote
bgoefc Posted May 21, 2015 Posted May 21, 2015 Had shit seats down behind the goal as i'd left it to my mate to take care of the tickets. Got away really quickly and did a ton up all the way back after the final whistle and was drinking in the Balmoral by 7:30pm (KO was 2pm if i recall correctly.) Quote
Zico Posted May 21, 2015 Posted May 21, 2015 (edited) Just remember looking at the clock every 2 mins in the 2nd half thinking we wouldn't do it Remember going mental when defraitas equalised Didn't even realised they'd scored at the end and thought it was 4-2 until I got home and saw the highlights Went on a minibus with dave t and the bloke who owned the paki shop round the corner from ritzys, he brought along a load of cans to sell us, on the way home he nodded off so we went through a crate load of his castlemaine xxxx before he woke up Edited May 21, 2015 by ZicoKelly Quote
exiledwhite2 Posted May 22, 2015 Posted May 22, 2015 With that team, it was nailed on that we had won as soon as Branagan saved that penalty. I was absolutely bladdered tbf in the cheap seats (benches) down behind the goal, there's nowt like being 2 down in no time and facing a penalty to sober you up though Shame Rioch effectively resigned that day, if I remember right Quote
gonzo Posted May 22, 2015 Posted May 22, 2015 It's crazy when you think Rioch was only with us 3 seasons. When I think back it felt like the whole of my childhood. Quote

Youri McAnespie Posted May 22, 2015 Posted May 22, 2015 And while I'm scanning stuff, look out for an original, somewhat vintage, scrawling toneet. Quote
victor meldrew Posted May 22, 2015 Posted May 22, 2015 defraitas equaling goal is still the greatest elation i have ever felt. wedding, children , close second. Quote
Ghana White Posted May 22, 2015 Posted May 22, 2015 Great day.. I miss that belief that we cold do it against the odds.. didn't we sing you'll never walk alone towards the end? Quote
freds dad Posted May 23, 2015 Posted May 23, 2015 At the end it was a fantastic day but I was nearly thrown out or Wemberleeee when we were 2 nil down as I had a fall out with bloke behind and it almost came to fisticuffs. For an extra point who did Reading beat in their semi final? Quote
