This first cup win in 85 years business......

.....that Motson felt the need to remind us about every five minutes, how many matches were there in that 85 years?

 

Seems a pointless stat to me unless number of games are accounted for!

[Stigger]

They've not beat us in the cup for 7 years. It'll be at least 8 now.

It was the very idea that we were after revenge for all those games today though. I very much doubt the players were lying awake last night thinking about the defeat from 1947.

Murph was.

Was like Rush v Arsenal in '87 that.

 

They never stopped going on about his record until it went..

Motson positively hurtling towards senility. Aside from the stupid stat, he nearly creamed himself when Giggs looped a shot over the bar with his right foot: 'Ooh, a scorcher!!!!' And the idiot was forever talking about 'good news for England'. Good news for England? Only if you move to Scotland, John.
