kplfishtank 4,656 Posted September 3, 2013 Share Posted September 3, 2013 I'm fairly certain this was against Steaua Bucharest and it was an afternoon ko. I remember the teacher going out to check the score for a couple of us. IIRC it was only about a week after Ally had surgery. I think it was season 87/88.This was the Parma game in 1998 (late Nov or early Dec). It was a late afternoon ko, I left work early and went to my parents house to watch it with my Dad. It was sweet revenge though when we beat them the following year to get into the CL. I was at the home game in '99 & then watched the away leg at the Highland Bar in Gran Canaria. I even had my Falkirk Supporter husband wearing a Gers top that night!the Steau game was an afternoon kick off, it only passed a pitch inspection after they got helicopters down onto the pitch to dry it out, one of best teams ive seen play us, should and could have been a hammering that day. all the power in the city was switched off early evening in winter time, think game was in march Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

hammer93 15,056 Posted September 3, 2013 Share Posted September 3, 2013 Did their keeper score their second goal to make it 2-2 or is my mind playing tricks on me?I'm sure it was fredi bobic that scored. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
brazz1972 397 Posted September 3, 2013 Share Posted September 3, 2013 I remember skiving off school for this. I think there was a game against Steau Bucharest that was also at a random midweek afternoon kick off too when i was wee.Kaiserslautern around that time as well was early. Djorkaeff was playing for them if i remember correctly. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

brazz1972 397 Posted September 3, 2013 Share Posted September 3, 2013 Think Amo had a howler there as well, got into racial trouble if I recall.I was at this game. Don't think it was an early ko. Amo made a bit of a remark to Viktor Ikpeba. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
elephants stoned 2,994 Posted September 3, 2013 Share Posted September 3, 2013 Was one of those two games Niemi had the best game I've ever seen from a keeper he was immense can't remember if it was then first or second leg though but we played really well despite Parma piling on the pressure Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
GrandSuckMaster 1,775 Posted September 3, 2013 Share Posted September 3, 2013 Lars Ricken diving against us on the touch line is the worst dive I have ever seen on tv. Have never been able to see it again and no-one else ever seems to remember it. I was fucking raging for a good 5 minutes as he used to be my favourite foreign player.

brazz1972 397 Posted September 3, 2013 Share Posted September 3, 2013 he came up for the corner and perhaps squared it back for the equaliser, but he didnt score itJens Lehmann I think it was. Knocked the ball on and Fredi Bobic equalised. Sickener. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

brazz1972 397 Posted September 3, 2013 Share Posted September 3, 2013 Is this the one where that dick van honk doink scored two free kicks against us.No that was for Feyenoord when big Eck took over. Advocaat got us through against PSG on penalties in Paris. Numan scored the winner I think then Advocaat moved upstairs. Arteta was playing for PSG and Van Persie for feyenoord.

danger ranger 922 Posted September 3, 2013 Share Posted September 3, 2013 I was at the game, went with the grapes bus, it was bloody freezing, Veron spent most of the first half stopping his team mates from fighting each other, they had lost the plot, then our two Italians lost the plot, nuff said.
