Danny Posted January 10, 2018 Posted January 10, 2018 12 years of the Premier League, right up until Chelsea's bastardisation of everything we knew and loved starting winning them silverware. This period saw the greatest ever goal scored in the Premier League... It saw Michael Owen silence my uncle and brother on FA Cup final day... And last but not least, the greatest ever meltdown in the history of sport... *Domestic and European cups included.
Administrator Stan Posted January 10, 2018 Administrator Posted January 10, 2018 Premier League thread with 3 videos and 1 of them is an FA Cup one
True Blue Posted January 10, 2018 Posted January 10, 2018 We won five major trophies in that period fair to say , you could include a community shield but no one counts that as a trophy (apart from the United fans after Fergie)

There's so much more you could have had though. Eric Cantona's flying kick Tony Yeboah and his volley in off the bar Vinnie Jones crunching everyone Dalian Atkinson's wonder goal Liverpool vs Newcastle 4-3 thriller Blackburn winning the league! Plenty more!
Rick Posted January 10, 2018 Posted January 10, 2018 That Bergkamp goal isn't the best ever either. Not even close.

Smiley Culture Posted January 10, 2018 Posted January 10, 2018 I miss the United v Arsenal games. I know I was a kid but it felt like everything else stopped when they were playing and all eyes were on Old Trafford or Highbury. The build up actually built up the atmosphere up more, unlike today where every game is “the best thing ever” in “the best league in the world” and every week is “World’s best, never to be beaten, best ever, Super Sunday”. The looks on the faces of Patrick Vieira and Roy Keane in the tunnel was fantastic and you knew, at some time, they’d be eyeball to eyeball squaring up to each other. It really felt like the two teams hated each other.

Administrator Stan Posted January 10, 2018 Administrator Posted January 10, 2018 That Keown mounting over Van Nistelrooy moment like a monkey on speed is hilarious. What year was that?! 2003?
Honey Honey Posted January 10, 2018 Posted January 10, 2018 Football kits looked a lot better in that era. Some real iconic ones. They were also better quality before the pursuit of "breathable" fabric.

Poor Kev. I liked Keegan too. He was different to Fergie. Very likeable, wore his heart on his sleeve although tactically found wanting, he was all about self motivation and players wanting to play for him. And he attempted to play the most attractive way although it probably cost them. His Newcastle team will always be one of the best teams to have never won it.
Honey Honey Posted January 10, 2018 Posted January 10, 2018 I saw a tweet the other day that said in 1997 Newcastle signed John Dahl Tomasson and Anders Andersson for £5.5m to be backup strikers, in 2017 Newcastle signed Joselu for £5m to lead the club's attack
Guest Posted January 10, 2018 Posted January 10, 2018 I've always wondered what would have happened if Chelsea and city hadn't got rich. Would man utd have won about ten leagues in a row
