He passed away a happy man. That moment and that video will be ever ingrained in my mind.

Maybe gone but never forgotten. Hope you're kicking the Big Blue house down, forget the RiP.

I know quite a few old fellows and to say that they don't give a fuck about this season compared to what happened then is an understatement.

We lost a Blue during the FA Cup winning season but you just knew they'd have had a massive smile on their face, knowing what was coming.
