    No doubt they will show THAT goal again on TV numerous times on Saturday
    It was the 1981 final that cemented me as a City fan. I'd kinda followed them prior to that, but only as a 'I hate Man U fan', but both of them games were brilliant and as a kid I got sucked into the insanity that is being a City fan. If I'd have known 30 years of hurt was to follow I may have changed my mind :rotfl:

    Been having a rubbish couple of days with personal stuff, but this has really cheered me up. How lovely of you both. Wish there were more people like MaineBlue and partlydave in the real world. Have a great time at the match MB, hope you get the result you want, and partlydave hope you have a great time at the gig. :):)

    Great news maineblue,
    I was same if id have won I was going to contact you as I dont really support any team and couldnt go to london anyway.
    You absolutely fully DESERVE it for the hard work you put in day after day, even sharing all the comps for the tickets - that must of been hard for you to do, a very very selfless deed.

    As you know Ive given things away on here before so its lovely to see that so many other members would prefer to help each other.
    (so much better than FB where everyones out for themselves and stuff everybody else)

    Youre going to have a mint time I just cant decide the score me and my OH think it will be around 6 or 7 Nil to You.
    And thats not being unkind to wigan but to say its a tall order!

    And well done partlydave karma certainly did come round, Im sure Seeing the legend that is Clapton in concert is going to be something you'll never forget.

    Hope you both have EXCELLENT days, and please please try to post us all a decent piccie or two! :T
    (take a poster with MSE written on we might spot it)
    Still comping, after 2 heart attacks 4th feb & 6th feb, and a stent put in.. 45 years old only:eek:
