Wistaston Ram Posted January 6, 2023 Share Posted January 6, 2023 I was 15 and it was the biggest game I had so far attended after seven years of mediocrity. I sat in the Osmaston Wing of the Ley Stand with my dad. I remember watching an old man a few rows in front, stoically sitting through a hail of coins throw by the Forest fans from the terrace below. it was like something from the opening scene of Saving Private Ryan. Not sure I have ever heard a louder roar than when Archie's free kick hit the back of the net or felt so elated walking back to the car afterwards. 48 hours, Reggie Greenwood and loweman2 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Meowduck Posted January 6, 2023 Share Posted January 6, 2023 Can't believe how much football has changed since then..........absolutely kicking lumps out of each other. Don't think there would be six players on each side nowadays. loweman2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mucker1884 Posted January 6, 2023 Share Posted January 6, 2023 I'd have been 12 days short of my 20th birthday. Already shacked up with young mouths to feed, this was during my budget-enforced DCFC Hiatus, (as was the vast majority of the 80's/early 90's) so had to make do with the TV offering of the day. Still great to watch it again though, so thanks for the reminder, @loweman2 ?? loweman2, Reggie Greenwood and 48 hours 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
richinspain Posted January 6, 2023 Share Posted January 6, 2023 I was stood on the Popside in my usual spot just to the left of the drop off of the gully (as I was for virtually every home game until the 95-6 season, apart from a couple of seasons in the season ticket holder's pen). One of the great days in there. It wasn't a game of great quality, but it was everything that a third round FA Cup game against local rivals should be.
