Milk Cup Final - This is gold!

Apologies if this has already been posted, I know that the club released VHS / DVD copies of this multiple times over the last 30 years, but haven't seen this pre-match stuff in ages.... prob not since watching the old Betamax that my nan recorded it on in late 80s! :)



Memory of happier days!


Really enjoyed watching that. Happy memories.
 
Well I hadn't seen that before, and it's priceless. I'd forgotten that Jimmy Hill played for OUFC... and Dennis Waterman! Just a great bit of tv, and made me very nostalgic. "Different class", as Shotts was already saying!
 
What a great atmosphere we created that day. Nobody took our flags, balloons and banners away - I remember the one near me: “Phillips is Electric!”
One banner that has always stuck in my mind from what was arguably the U's finest day ever was en route to wembley via m40....on the side of the left hand chalk cliff of stokenchurch hill cutting was a huge white banner with the words 'sing your hearts out for the lads' in yellow and blue letters...... respect to whoever risked life n limb to ensure it was in place for the travelling yellow hordes on the m40 to see n draw inspiration for
 
Great post. All pre match build up should be like that and not the inane studio crap we get now.

I'd rather have a Wang than a Guiness.
 
Yes , a great day out and what a team we had then. We recorded it on scotch tape on the day, which is watchable after all these years.
 
Thanks for the post (y) Brings back great memories of the day. A40 on the coaches on the way back and the bridges draped with the OUFC flags. Oxfordshire was UNITED that day.
COYYS!

I went in a minibus from summer town middle. On the way back we were mooned at on the M40 by some ‘tipsy’ OUFC fans. Oh how we laughed!
 
I can always remember Brian Moore's immortal words when we lifted the trophy : "The unbelievable has happened and a dream has come true". How right he was.
