      82 did for me as well. I had never imagined I'd get to a Wembley final with Rangers (let alone it being FA Cup). Even in my wildest imagination I thought it would be at best decades off (after seeing the 77 thru 79 crash I thought we were on a spiral). And yet there I was with my own hair and teeth at Wembley with the R's at the age of 17. And they did us proud. How long will it be till we sing "we're proud of you" endlessly at the end of a game again do you think?

      Bush - think there was lots of stops going on by everyone. In 82 some of the pubs in Harlseden hadn't shut from the night before!

          I marched to Wembley in '82 & '86, spent most of the 4th March '67 at my nan's, I was doing my colouring book, Nan & Grandad were watching the Rangers do West Brom on the box.
          I was born just a tad too late.

            met loads of fellas at smuts and started out (82). people just joining in as we went.great chants of let em out as we passed the scrubs.about 9 thousand made it to wembley,so they say,my memory as we arrived is yi ds firm waiting at wembley way and attacking. took so many liberties that they paid for in replay.that was the day that we stopped being scared of spurs.the boys going over the top at half time was class.great pics in west london observer.of course n17 said chels were with us lol
