Memoirs of LFC Fan,

Back in the 88/ 89 season I remember inviting some of my mates from college round for a night of beers and cards. Liverpool were at home to newly promoted Palace and as the hands were played I kept nipping into the living room to check the score on teletext/ ceefax. The score was changing virtually every 10 mins I checked much to my and my friends amusement. For those not old enough to remember the score finished 9-0 and they even missed a pen (A. Pardew took it I think? )

Anyone else got any other fond memories like that?

Jonesy, that was the 12th September, mate. Remember it well as it was my 2nd wedding anniversary and couldn't get to game. Beat Palace twice that season then blew it in semi.

{Ed001's Note - me mam got me the VHS video of that game (remember them?) back in the days when you couldn't just buy those kind of things. She had to save tokens out of the paper to send for it! I wore it out watching it over and over again. Stevie Nicol was immense that day scoring the first and last goal and the only man to score twice.}

My most vivid memory of the 89 season was standing on the Kop and the last day, clapping Arsenal off, feeling totally stunned after what I’d just seen.

We had a Betamax video, great quality when recording but feck all videos to rent 😩😩.

Back in the days when things were appreciated and cherished, I somehow feel the world has lost something since the 90s.

I had a VHS of a 5-0 win over Forest same season could have been a cup game. Hailed as one of the best performances of that era.
