Sith Happens Posted April 13, 2017 Share Posted April 13, 2017 Its 20 years soon since pride park opened, I may have missed it but do we know if anything is being done to mark the occasion? I remember the early days of friendlies against Barcelona... Now our showcase friendly is the likes of stoke. Would be good if somehow we could get a big team here to mark the occasion.

Tombo Posted April 13, 2017 Share Posted April 13, 2017 If we set the players' hair on fire while they're on the pitch it'll look like candles in a birthday cake. Just a thought that came to me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Did we even have a showcase friendly last pre season??? A home game against Bournemouth doesn't do it for me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cosmic Posted April 13, 2017 Share Posted April 13, 2017 Just to steer this thread into another direction: 20 years on, are we starting to create significant memories there, like all you old boys reminisce about the BBG? For me, watching Baiano, Eranio et al bed in the new stadium with exciting football, the Southampton playoff semi-final, the paper cup goal, 5-0, the lights going out (Pride Dark), and Nathan Ellington playing upfront for us are all personal highlights.

If we had - Adam Bogdan, Steve Sidwell, Ben Watson, Jack Colback, Sam Clucas, Wes Brown, Gordon Strachan, John Hartson, Dave Kitson, Stuart McCall, Paul Scholes, Mark Pembridge, Ben Pringle, Nicky Butt, James Collins, Alexi Lalas, Wayne Rooney, Duncan Watmore, Nick Chadwick and Jon Arne Riise there would be no fire hazard.
