Rewatching the Play-off Final

Rewatching the Play-off Final

I've just watched the short highlights for the millionth time and seeing Gilham lift the trophy with Pontus, still makes me grin from ear to ear
Peter’s look was of a man who had died and gone to heaven and I can’t think of someone who deserved that happiness in a life dedicated to the club as a Bee more.

Has anyone got DVD sky recordings of the Bournemouth and Swansea games?

I am always focused on Raya turning and running full pelt towards the Bees fans with that video

Rewatching the Play-off Final

I’ve started to watch the full 4 hour Sky recording of the game this week, which includes all the prematch discussions.
I’ve got up to about 30 mins into the game itself .. it’s nice to watch knowing the outcome ? .. can’t wait for the for the final whistle!
It’s also great to spot fans I know in the crowd too! .. what a day .. such a privilege to have been there.
 

Rewatching the Play-off Final

I'd love if the Club did a DVD(s) with the following
1) Play-Offs (all 3 games in full or extended highlights)
2) The League season (46 games in a c. 2-3 hour DVD)
3) The Cup Competitions - focusing on our record breaking run to the League Cup Semis.
 

Rewatching the Play-off Final

I don't need all those old dirty dvd's anymore now we have the internet ;)
:LOL: we might very well be Premier League Maidenhead, but some of us are still a bit old school. Plus, it would be nice to have all this in one place/box set.

There's probably a few on here who'd be interested in your dirty dvd's (no doubt pure filth) ;)
 

Rewatching the Play-off Final

Sometimes I think the euphoria of Wembley has made some people forget just how bloody amazing the previous Saturday and the Bournemouth game were…I’ve also rewatched this several times

That is when it started, 2.0 down and then 5 unanswered goals in the next week. In hindsight and not staring at the clock between my fingers for 90 minutes you have to say we were pretty unstoppable from that moment onwards. All my mates say we cruised it but I hated every second of that final, I genuinely did. Anxiety, nerves and my heart rate going from 45 to 115 including half time. 90th Minute I started believing, 93rd minute I started celebrating and that was the only bit I could go through again.
 

Rewatching the Play-off Final

I was lucky enough to get one of the 1000 ‘extra’ tickets on the Wednesday before the game. Whilst Wembley was obviously fantastic, the remoteness from the pitch does little for the experience.
Given that I would have watched the final on NowTV I would much have preferred to be at BCS for the Bournemouth game.
The whole situation, with 4K fervent Bees fans in our 17K stadium and coming from two goals down is PROPER entertainment.
Somewhat better than a tepid 2-0 win over poor opponents at that soulless Wembley. ??

Pretty much sums it up for me as well, I was a bag of nerves until the 92nd minute. My son said "we're up" straight after the Marcondes goal but he's only 15 so has only suffered the play-off heartbreaks since Yeovil .... what does he know!

And the 2.0 up at QPR in the 93rd minute, that still haunts me at 2.0 until the whistle goes.

Rewatching the Play-off Final

Rewatched the game again last night. Still magical. I can watch Marcondes goal on loop. Loved the reaction of the Swansea fans behind the goal when it went in and did even spot one Swansea fan clapping. One thing I noticed and I didn't at the time or afterward was not only the ball from Roerslev inch perfect but there was 7 Swansea players in the penalty area (including their goalie) when Marcondes scored. Roserlev's pass took them all out and what an amazing finish.

I find that I fast forward to a minute or so before the first goal and the same for the second and watch them on loop. I then fast forward to about 91 minutes and watch to the end. It.Gets.Me.Every.Frickin.Time

That cross and the two against Preston make me think it is quite possible the club see Roerslev as up to nailing the RB spot next season. His worst performances were where he lacked confidence, if he’s shown those three on loop and told to play without fear he could be a huge star.

I always have rated him. Remember a couple of years ago against Bristol City away he was class. Dalsgaard will be missed more for his experience and height. There is something reassuring having a full back that is 6 foot plus and can play.

I like this idea but I would prefer them on Blu-ray for better quality.
Perhaps also a rerelease of Bees on the Box on some digital media please.

Just having a watch. A rewatch. A re- rewatch. Happy days ???

Steve Cooper . With your face like a dirty protest at a youth remand centre. And woodmans hair like an 16th century home made bicycle helmet.

The Toney penalty. I know you know but that was f***img unsaveable. Brilliant.
 

Rewatching the Play-off Final

Finally finished the full 4 hours 10 mins of Sky coverage on the day.
Other things that stood out were .. how well Mads Roerslev played .. apart the brilliant assist he hardly put a foot wrong. When he first got in the side he looked really good, lost his way a bit (probably down to confidence) the season just gone, but came back strong at the back end.
Those 2 massive headers from Pinnock in the space of 30 seconds in the last couple of minutes keeping Swansea last couple of attacks out.
Mr & Mrs Benham hugging at the final whistle was a nice touch.
Peter G getting blinded by the champagne spraying.
The noise that only 5000 made on tv .. it sounded like 35000.
I’ll never forget that day .. and spending it with my kids made even better!

The Roerslev run was an incredible show of athleticism - to run full gun for 90 yards, stop, slow yourself down and make a calm decision that's then perfectly executed. It was a massively underrated piece of play imo. That whole move shows very well coached players at their very best - superb decisions throughout, even down to Toney's brilliant distraction play.

Indeed. Great play and athleticism.

Having a belated Promotion Party in a couple of weeks, and wanted to have the Play Off Final on the TV during it as background.
I’ve had a look but can’t find it, is there a full re-run on YouTube somewhere? (I don’t have Sky, just NOW TV)
Also, for ‘mood music’, is there such a thing as a compilation CD of all our “greatest hits” at all? Hey Jude, Come on You Brentford, Saturday Afternoon - Red Army, the Owusu one by Rhino, etc. etc…….

You can still access the full match free of charge on iFollow here. Of course I don't know if that will be taken down at any point given we won't be using iFollow in the Premier League.

It won’t. Best use Chrome on a laptop with an HDMI cable.

Yep that's what I do, I just plug an HDMI from the TV into the laptop and it shows whatever's on there. I do that to watch shows etc.

Watched the Bournemouth second leg again in full today. It was still a dagger to the heart when Danjuma scores and we look disorganised. Our emergence from the ashes of 2 nil down is still the thing of wonder and Vitaly's goal still has me shouting out loud. Little tear at the end.

Not because of the importance but the way we it was scored, one of my favourite ever goals. The Bryan and Mads runs,, the ball to Emi and the finish!! Sublime.

Dont forget Toney splitting off far right dragging a player with him and beckoning Bryan forward again and again. If you've not noticed watch again.

The final is on DSTV for the 10th time; its worth the monthly fee, and I hope they keep repeating it for weeks to come
 

Rewatching the Play-off Final

I have just rewatched the Henrik interview and I am sure that at that time he knew that he was going back to Denmark next season and would not be playing for us in the Premier League if we won. What a man!! We will miss him and hope that he returns to Lional Road one day so that we can give him the massive ovation he deserves.
