Daz Sparks 1,152 Posted June 7, 2015 I think from now on in, "binners history" should be shortened to "binstory". And while we''re about shortening things, we should reduce binstory talk also, by about 99% I reckon. [:)] Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Crabbycanary3 994 Posted June 7, 2015 Their latest straw clutching is clinging to the memories of the Tommy Smith goalBless them thinking that Ruddy shoulld have been sent off (never in a month of Sundays) the fact that they shut us up for what, five minutes in five years? (Even when they did score, I said to my mate that, no problem, stay calm, we''d sort it )I guess, you''ve got nothing if you haven''t got your dreams Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

kdncfc 27 Posted June 7, 2015 At the end of the day they have won 3 trophies to our 2. They will say that the league cup isn''t a major trophy but it was when we won it.The FA cup has always been the more prestigous but the league cup was not far behind when all the top teams actually played a full strength team from the early rounds.The UEFA cup as it was when they won it has now become a second rate competition but rather conveniently they ignore that while dismissing the league cup we won as a mickey mouse cup.If their defender hadn''t cheated by handling on the line they wouldn''t have been down to 10 men but we would have still been in front and we started the second half far better than them so I''d still have backed us to go on and win.Suddenly their fans are the best in the land but I can remember hearing them sing twice in the second leg of the semi final and that wasn''t even very loud.We''ll never be them and why the hell would we want to be.

BroadstairsR 2,163 Posted June 7, 2015 In all fairness kd, the League Cup was far from being a major trophy the first time we won it. The second time it most surely was.The UEFA cup was always second to the European Cup, by a mile. It was seen as a bit of a consolation prize for the also rans, as it''s equivalent today is and indeed when we were in Europe.I may be wrong, but didn''t they qualify for Europe that season through winning the Fair Play League? Also, how many times were we denied by the Liverpool embargo? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Old Shuck 183 Posted June 11, 2015 They can bang on about being the "pride of Anglia" all they like.I''d like to think our ambitions are a little less insular than that, bless them and their "local club for local people" ways. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
