    It worked out well for Nick Clegg... oh

    I do agree they are pointless though - maybe they could actually just do an episode of Pointless instead. I would vote for someone who could get all the pointless answers from players who played in the 1980 cup final

    The first 5 players on that list would be arrested for assault after their first tackle these days

    Sammy Nelson was probably mentally unwell, in retrospect. He enjoyed hurting people.

    And Graham Rix might be checking out the ball girls to see if any were suitable

    Technically correct in that those 11 players all took part but Nelson was sub - controversially dropped for John Devine. Then arguably more controversially made the 12th man meaning when we were looking for a game changer we were faced with just swapping left backs. I was 8 and could tell that was a bad move

    Parkes, Stewart, Bonds, Martin, Lampard, Pearson, Allen ( ), Brooking, Devonshire, Pike, Cross since you ask

    couldn't get the West Ham subs though - Paul Brush

    Ooh, I had a vague recollection of Devine playing but didn't have the strength of my convictions to go with it. A lesson to be learnt there la.

    Brooking

    I seem to recall the European loss a few days later hurting more.

    The glamour of Europe, Kempes and Bonhof, us not being utter shít (unlike at Wembley), then the penalties, Liam’s last ever kick of a ball for us etc.

    Devastated I was.

    Yes. It was particularly painful standing at Heysel

    For some obscure reason I ended up on a charter flight out of Southend... with the supporter's club.

    There were deviants on that aeroplane.

    Are there still such things as supporters' clubs? Or do they call them something slightly less redolent of meat paste sandwiches and blow-up sex dolls these days?
