I'm 9 minutes in and going to enjoy this in bite size pieces while having a fag. Is it an editing masterclass from other sources including all audio or is that you on the intro and segueing videos together? Either way, excellent work. Must have taken a while?

We was back!!! My first game! And an early MotD dedicated to the game if I remember correctly.
Hollyfox Posted 6 May 2020 Posted 6 May 2020 What a superb watch, so many memories. Muzzy's goal at Villa, when I was sat with my little (at the time) nephew in the Holte End and he kept going on about Leicester players and I kept telling him to shut up. Heskey was an unreal talent and his back heal for Claridge v Utd was incredible. So much heart and desire in that squad. O'Neil was a genius 💙

Spotted one of my mates in the crowd in one game and shared it all over Facebook. It seems to have calmed down now but first thoughts were WE ARE NOT "THE BLUES'" 😂🙄😱😱🤯✌️

He really was a beast of a player that season. Disgusting how his career has been mocked by the lad banter twats on Twitter and the like- for years Heskey was a serious threat- look at the way Tottenham couldn't handle him in the away game, I can remember three players being around him and he'd still create something. No surprise that Owen, Cottee, Claridge have all said how good he was to partner. Whoever turned this confident, aggressive, direct player into one that looked completely neutered and unthreatening has questions to answer.
Heart-Shaped Fox Posted 7 May 2020 Posted 7 May 2020 Heskey was the real deal when he was with us and first year or so at Liverpool. Absolutely unplayable really. Don't know what happened to him because later on he stopped scoring many goals. One of those players who peaked as a youngster
SemperEadem Posted 10 May 2020 Posted 10 May 2020 Gary Parker does not seem to get the recognition he deserves.

Rolls Royce of a player, got his shirt after he lobbed it in the crowd at Stoke away after the 2nd leg of the playoffs. My old boy sold it several years later 😰 One of the best passers of the ball and ruthless at spot kicks. He epitomised the O'Neill era of having very experienced and talented players whose condition was somewhat questionable but would make an impact whenever called upon, the same as Ian Marshall and a few others.
Collymore Posted 11 May 2020 Posted 11 May 2020 Started a Champ Manager 99/00 game yesterday. Signed Collymore and he ripped his muscle in first training session out for 6 months. Signed Zlatan as 18yo who's bagged about 15 in 20 games so far. David Collins and Kim Kallstrom still very young and after a slow start just finding their feet but these will be world beaters in 5 years. Collymore finally fit and scored 7 goals in his first 4 matches also sparking Collins and Zlatan into life. The game has brought back all the frustrations of the past though, average of 5 sending offs over 10 games, punishment for forgetting to cover a position on the bench (injury early on in the one position you can't replace) ridiculous amount of Injuries to key players.

Where did you get 99/00 from mate? Online download?
Foxin_Mad Posted 11 May 2020 Posted 11 May 2020 What a joy watching those old games, god I miss the football! That time was a fantastic period in life! Clubbing, football!

Loved pretty much everyone in that squad. Ditto. I was in my early 20’s such amazing times spent with great friends, some sadly gone and a great football team to support, loved that time of my life.
