Damn! I'll have to think of a different present then.I haven't got a DVD player any more.

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.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
currently down to watching this 20 times a day
I've got them both on my Sky BoxHas anyone got DVD sky recordings of the Bournemouth and Swansea games?
Damn! I'll have to think of a different present then.
I don't need all those old dirty dvd's anymore now we have the internet![]()
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
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!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.
Thanks mate but luckily for you, I don't live in your house.I've got them both on my Sky Box
are you mad , Wembley was the best day of my life as good as muff wasI 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. ??

Did Ivan's effort cross the line this time?Just watched it again , Spoiler alert !!!
we still win ?

And Toney's effort still doesn't go in.Just watched it again , Spoiler alert !!!
we still win ?
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.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 like this idea but I would prefer them on Blu-ray for better quality.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.

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!
Indeed. Great play and athleticism.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.
Yeah.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.Yeah.
Tried logging into iFollow via the internet browser on my telly, but that didn't seem to work.....
Before re-watching the play-off final, I recommend re-watching Henrik Dalsgaard's pre-match interview. It'll calm your nerves.
Hadn’t seen that.
What a totally brilliant interview.
Think we’re gonna miss him.
FCM player -> FCM coach -> FCM manager -> BFC manager.
Perhaps?
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!!

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.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.
