Quote: Bal "My grandad was us. He has barely missed a game since the second world war. He carries his fathers, my great grandads Hull FC scarf with him. In the last 6 minutes, he was talking to his scarf (actually, he was talking to his Dad and my Uncle)... We had 4 generations at Wembley on Saturday. I know he is emotional when he goes quiet and still. I think he is thinking about all the years, games and people of the past.

He told me today after the homecoming that it was his biggest wish.'"


Bloody hell, that's just made me cry all over again...

Was very close. Luckily for me, me & my lad are the only people in our family that do rugby so didn't have any past family members to remember. The cheer Radford received when lifting the cup very nearly got me going though.

Quote: Mick Cranes Sidestep "I cried during Abide with me - as I always do; in fact it starts in anticipation of it. Cried at the end and again watching the cup being lifted when I watched the last 10 minutes again on TV. I have little or no recollection of the last 7 minutes. I saw us go from losing to winning and then possibly lose it again - but didn't realise it was Houghton who made the tackle - it just didn't register at all with me.

I didn't realise that the game was up when mini dropped onto the loose ball. It was like an out of body experience.'"


Mrs28 cried when Shaul scored and I had to tell her there was still time left! icon_lol.gif

At full time we both did (although I was still panicking that Wattsy was offside when he made that tackle - of course he wasn't!)

Filled up a few times since reading people's stories and watching the game again too. Met two of my schoolmates from Leeds outside after so that was pretty special as well

Myself, Digger and Robs were swept along in the emotion of it all. I was physically drained afterwards and didn't recover until after we had had a meal in the West End. Did I shed a tear? for sure. I've seen FC lift the cup in my 16th, 39th and 50th years but wow this was the sweetest moment I have had in the 35 years of following the club. The scenes at the end will live with me forever. What a weekend, glad we pushed the boat out on 1st class travel and a quality hotel. Four days of boozing has taken it's toll though, I'm off to Portugal on Saturday for a week and will be toasting the club all week.

Great to meet various forumites on the day too and swapping seats with Uppo as planned worked out fine. Great work on the diary Wilf, was waving to you at the end but we were all lost in the moment by then.

C'mon you ulll.

Wasn't it just brilliant and an experience the like of which we will never see again, I was so proud to be there! You don't need to be chopping onions if you've read this thread! Aren't we lucky!!!

Life should not be a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely in a pretty and well preserved body, but rather to skid in broadside, thoroughly used up, totally worn out and proudly proclaiming `Wow, what a ride`:d7dc4b20b2c2dd7b76ac6eac29d5604e_60404.png



54 years I`ve been waiting for that to happen since my mam took me along as a 5 year old.
It would have been her finest moment of following our club. At the final whistle I looked across at our kid and we both looked to the skies together knowing that she was watching it all unfold. Tears ran like Usain Bolt down our faces.

Exactly the same as me Mosher, and as a coincidence I've been in the end virtually directly above where we crossed the line for each winning try.
The surge of the Elland Road Kop end as LC went under between the sticks.
The tumbling high up in the heavens of the Millenium and ending up severals rows below in a Leeds females lap as PC cut back inside to score.
Only ended up falling the one row in front as JS went over for the winner on Saturday and they were empty seatsanyway so no damage done, only to my bruised left thigh. icon_biggrin.gif
Magical moments, all three of them.

I was so emotional I couldn't even speak during the game. This year had a different feel than other years, and for 60 minutes I thought we were all going to be left heartbroken again.
It's fair to say the emotion came out at the end!!
Felt like crying at a game before (normally after a defeat), but this was the first time it had actually happened.
Never seen so many grown men crying at one time (since Wembley 2015 anyway!)

Like a baby.............started with our first score 20 mins out and was still blubbering into my beer late into the Saturday night.

Just kept thinking about all the fantastic people who never lived to see it.......starting to fill up now !!

Quote: K-Diddy "The cheer Radford received when lifting the cup very nearly got me going though.'"


That is probably the thing that has stayed with me the most from the day. Loudest cheer of the afternoon.
I'm not afraid to admit that my resolve was wavering that night at Widnes. What a journey.

First time on the forum since before Wembley.

Yes, cried at the hooter, cried again when Whiting came on the pitch into the Winners Circle but the biggest bawl was watching Radders' face change when he got the biggest roar of the day. I've watched the game back 4 times and still feel the sting of tears as we're all picking up the cup.

I was in block 125 so if anyone caught my grey and black FC cap that I chucked down to the front, can you return it please? icon_smile.gif
