    I was born 6 years after the event and spent my youth dreaming of seeing us repeat the feat.
    It isn't going to happen is it?

    My brother was born the day we won the cup. My father must have had mixed feelings as he was a Millwall fan.

    What made you support CAFC being your Dad was a Millwall  fan and who did your brother support ?  Where were you living at the time?

    Sorry to band on about this again, but I’m genuinely puzzled. The ball was bouncing around like it was made of rubber. I guess the balls were different back then, but I’d expect them to be more like a lump of concrete than super bouncy. Pitch was super dry as guess as there was a mini heatwave, but didn’t they water them back then.

    Isn't it wonderful that the Club had a dinner in 1997 to celebrate the 50th anniversary of our FA Cup win?

    Not ... 50 years since we won anything ... but a milestone celebration of our main achievement.

    75 years on, I guess we've learned the lesson.
