There was a sequence of Town play on 66mins which was breath taking - technical, powerful and intricate - and a moment when players on much lower wages and low transfer fees, outshone their wealthy opposition.
Let me relive it for you:
1. Clarke throw to Hladky at right corner post in front of Leicester fans 2. Hladky to Wolf 3. Wolf to Clark 4. Clark to Morsy 5. We've edge of our own box on right now 6. Morsy back to Wolf in area 7. Wolf sweeps across penalty area to Burgess Burgess really pressed by the brilliant Dewsbury Hall 8. Last minute pass though to David on left touchline 9. David infield to Taylor ahead of our box 10. Taylor drives forward under pressure to halfway line, fending off his man - brilliant 11. lips to Harness on left touchline He dinks to go further wide, rather than in-field, takes out two of their players 12. Checks back to Davis 13. Brilliant driven ball into Taylor, who shoots but hits defender and loops into air at the D 14. Clarke comes in really hard but wins it fairly mid air against Winks PORTMAN ROAD ERUPTS - THE ROAR 15. Burgess picks it up deeper, gives to Morsy 16. He runs forward, jinking, finds Clark right side midway up Leicester half Lovely shoulder drop gives him times from his press 17. Passes to Burns right wing 18. Excellent dangerous cross.. Leicester scramble to clear.. just needed THAT striker
PHEW!!!
Its only when you type it out (like a statto weirdo), you just begin to truly marvel at the just pure pleasure we are being given this season
This is against assembled for MILLIONS and MILLIONS and breaking all Championship records. We more than matched them.
Now back to the ROAR. Just incredible noise and passion. Showing that the players seem to need to go that extra mile to fire us up! Lets give it to them without that inspiration shall we? so we inspire them! on the odd occasion that is. And of course not wanting to tell you how to support (wibble).
These Are The Days (don't change it again Phil we know what happened last time?!) - celebrate every moment people.

I seem to remember that the first time Slade's "Come on feel the noise" was played live was over the PA system at Stamford Bridge when we played there in 1973. Anyone else remember pre-match playlists from the 70s?

Written about the buzz they received from the audience when they performed live. Hard to believe it was released 50 years ago.

Always remember S-S-S Single Bed by Fox 1976 ish.
Oh and singing ' Bye Bye West Ham' to the words of Bye Bye Baby by the Bay City Rollers at the ill fated FA Cup semi final at Stamford Bridge in 1975. (Thanks Clive Thomas...)

Him and many others who have enjoyed this thread and will probably watch the moment back as a result.
Just out of interest. Do you only enjoy the moments when we score?
Oh I bet they will, I did myself hence I was suprised by the ending being described like a worldie ball into the box, just gagging for a striker, but it wasnt, but sssh can't be negative.

And yes I do very much so.
What a bleak rabbithole your starfish winks at us from. You should extract yourself from your ridiculous position, not dig deeper.

This is what I mean.
A fantastic town move, brilliant excellent.
Final cross nowhere near a player in blue. Leicester attack and almost score.
But ROARRRRRR
But Leicester didn't score so all was good.
And don't say they could have done, because you never apply that sort of logic to us - a brilliant move could have ended in a goal, but it didn't so according to you it's pointless celebrating the play....
Just one small problem; sell their houses to who, Ben? Fcking Aquaman?

Well quite, it could have ended in a goal for us had we found a player in blue at the end of it...
At no point do i disagree with the play being excellent, it's the usual stuff from town, which i've compared to prem style even through the league 1 campaign.

Excellent! So we're all agreed then! It was a fabulous phase of play, typical of what we've been doing under McKenna, which sometimes leads to goals, sometimes not, and we'll continue playing and celebrating that style of football in the future regardless of whether it leads to a goal or not!

Which we all do anyway, without the need to go ott on the ending "Excellent dangerous cross.. Leicester scramble to clear.. just needed THAT striker"
" A Cross into the box, which leicester clear" But what goal that would have been.... imo would be more on point than making out something that wasn't.
Equally, the build up and the ball across from Davis to Burns first half, excellent play throughout, the other 2nd half move between I think it was Harness, Ladapo, Chaplin ( Can't remember if it was Harness or Broady on at that point... was also excellent.

Ok
i loved the way a brilliant move came to nothing. hurrah.

I think we've reached the point where one person (that's you btw), is ruining the entire forum. You seem to be on EVERY thread trying to be edgy and provocative. Can't even put you on ignore as it makes the site unreadable.
I can't read this sh1te any more.

Another OTT post. Good effort.
I'm on a few threads yeah but not everyone. And nit everyoost is anything close to trying to be what ever this edgy thing is all about.
Here's an idea.. grow up and either enjoy reading something or don't and move on. No one is forcing you in any way to take in what you read and live your life from it.

Now have a good day if you can.
"Grow up..." Hilarious.
I'm not the one consistently behaving like an attention seeking infant.
