SOCIAL MEDIA – WHAT YOU SAID
More of readers’ memories of the 2014 League Cup final weekend.
Andrew Hornsby: Had to be the monumental night in Covent Garden the day before, then that rare feeling of euphoria when Borini scored taking us in the break 1-0 up.
Paul Noble: Going into the Wetherspoons near Trafalgar Square early morning to get a lining on the stomach for the beer I was going to shift that day. Expecting it to be empty only to find literally hundreds of SAFC fans in there singing their heads off. Also the corner shop owner charging SAFC fans £20 for 4 cans of beer because he’d literally sold out of everything alcoholic.
Stuart Wilson: Watched it at the SoL. Had tears of joy after Borini’s goal, we definitely dared to dream (for a little while at least).
Jarryd Paone: I wasn’t there but I could tell it was magic. I woke up half of Melbourne when Borini scored.
Phil McGrath: The bloke who was sitting in front of me needed the toilet - whilst he was sitting on said loo - we went 1-0 up - he said he thought the stadium was collapsing!! We were living the life at 1-0 -especially as we’d travelled from the North West with all the City fans and getting stick all the way home - would have loved to have returned the stick on the return leg ..... one day Mark Harvey: Being the ONLY Sunderland fan in pub packed with City Fans 10 miles from Manchester. I made more noise on my own when we scored than the whole pub did together when they equalised. Have not got a clue how I got home (normally a 10min walk) and why my jeans were covered in mud !!!!!
Ian Burnham: The night before ..... seen nothing like it ..... I never saw a man city scarf ..... until I got into ground on Sunday !!! John Murch: Pre-match atmosphere... unbelievable
Tom Mallan: Onboard an Australian Warship, in my cabin with my laptop, with the cable stretched as far as it could, into my bunk and refreshing the page every 2 mins!
Glen Hilton: Our fans singing as I arrived at Kings Cross station will live with me forever the noise was
amazing. We got the best fans in world Ryan Ebdale: Poznan. What a day. Where has my club gone?! David Irving: Loved the first half !! Wembley erupted when Borini scored!!
Nigel Taylor: Not so much the match but the scenes in Covent Garden the day before the game... brilliant.
Joanne Campbell: Amazing weekend with my family, great memories made.
Neil King: Class weekend loved every minute of it imagine if we had won
Elizabeth Milestone: Listened on the radio, at halftime the commentator said that the City team looked beaten Daniel Polách: Poznan
