Nice to see that others remember Rafa.
At the time it seemed amazingly exotic and forward thinking to be signing a South American player. Quite a passage of time between our first Uruguayan recruit and the second!
Fifty years ago, I was excited and optimistic about every newly arrived player; hardly noticed departures.
2020: still optimistic, but much more sentimental about every departure.
That’s the way it goes I suppose.
Completely empathise Bondi Wolf. 40 years of (mostly) pain sort of conditions you to expect disappointment. On the other hand, such ingrained pessimism makes every unbelievable result even better to savour. 0-0 at Leicester: 'Fantastic!', totally outplaying Arsenal: Ecstasy!
We've waited so...
Nuno’s plan:
We’ll press hard in their half, exploiting defensive complacency until we have a solid lead, say 3-0. Then go for ten man defence to hold what we have.
Final score: 3-3
