Surprised no-one mentioned it.

I remember standing on the hard shoulder after our coach broke down on the way back to Filbo, that was after the air con packed in and we had to wait an hour at a service station for the driver to swap shifts. Still, good result and amazing how time flies!

I remember directing traffic whilst dancing jubilantly outside Stanmore tube station !!

Cant believe that was 10 years ago... Memories of those horrible plastic seats which no-one sat on are the first things i remember of that final ;)

Brilliant day out :P

I was 8 at the time and it was my second time going to Wembley sine first seeing us when I was nearly 6. After hearing about previous Wembley trips from my Dad I almost thought it was an annual thing.

Hopefully we can go to the new one this year!

F**king hell can't believe it was 10 years ago. That week was probably the crest of the wave in terms of our history - winning the league cup and the following week destroying Sunderland 5-2. Wish I get to see another cup win in my lifetime!

I remember there was a large function room that sold cheap Guinness before the match(I think it was going out of code). Later we stood outside the bar singing 'on the dole' as the Tranmere buses went by.

According to Soccerbase, losing 3-0 to Wolves on the 26th. :D

I remember becoming the absolute best mates with some seriously fat hairy sweaty man who was sitting next to me that day... I do this often on important games... i hugged him like i have hugged no other man before....

A division below us as well. MASSIVE.

Looking at the Youtube video of the presentation it was a poignant moment when MON went to see Brian Clough before he had even picked up the trophy, especially given their shared history and the fact that "Old Big 'ead" is no longer with us.

I'll bet the florists looked at Derby's result before they bothered finding out about our cup triumph :)

I remember it as if it was yesterday.

Those were the days when shit clubs like Tranmere got to finals. Cant see that happening today!!!
