Quote: bren2k "Joined that site and watched the original MPG back, for the first time in ages.
Interesting to hear Eddie and Stevo being as negative about Wakey as they've continued to be to this day; in the opening few minutes, Stevo says "it's good to see this place with an atmosphere for once..."
The most striking thing about that team though, is that it contained only 1 British born player in the starting 13 - it's a good thing that can't happen any more.'"
Although, if I remember correctly, Kear went on to build a predominently British squad which did very well.
For me, the most memorable recent Wakey game is definitely the 'original' MPG vs Cas. Very scary and tense although I always felt we would win even though Cas were leading at HT. I couldn't get to the Bradford MPG, being based overseas but watched a live stream. I like the concept although I don't want us to be there again thank you very much!
