[GetOverHere83]

[scroggin92]

haha anelka with hair XD

[UncleMikeNJ]

Yes, kids, Newcastle actually reached an FA Cup Final. In fact, they made it the next season, too. But lost to the Fergies.

[overkill100]

@Jonnylegg Ya spotted that too.what a twat

[Jonnylegg]

Anyone else notice the commentators mistake? It was 27 years ago by old Bertie.

[Knighthawk1985]

@Jonnylegg  your'e right 17 years ago would have been 1981

[deberjus]

Without Arse-Shaving it was better!!!!

[qothesa]

This is depressing. Back then Arsenal had players who loved Arsenal and a sense of togetherness and team spirit. Now we have team of ungreatful, spineless little shits who can't defend worh a fuck. No team spirit, they all just sit in the dressing room plugged into their ipods.

[BoomZzzZ]

I remember watching this game when i was 8 with my Grandfather and Dad.I wasnt much into football at the time nor did i support a club until i watched Ray Parlour,Viera and Overmars running around the place.I instantly fell in love with the club,the name,the kit/colours-the beautiful red and white against the green is something i remember vividly.I have not come across another team like Arsenal with its class and traditions,and i dont want to really,its special and unique to be a proud Gooner.

[jamesthemod]

If that Shearer challenge on Adams was today, the player would be rolling around in agony trying to get the other player sent off. This was when footballers were still men.

[warpfield98]

@jamesthemod i think also, Adams has been pissed off Shearer ever since for losing his England captaincy to him. not that i don't like Adams.

[arsenalcobain]

they should have played Ian Wright instead of Wreh, imagine if Wrighty scored at Wembley in his final game for the club!..It could have been so special

[atourdeforce]

god i miss shearer in his prime terribly.

[mlc3]

Starting Wreh ahead of Wright was pretty insulting.

[qothesa]

@mlc3 yea, but wrehs goals towards the end of that season were vital, and got them to the final. wright sadly had dried up by then :(

[Memefresero]

[Memefresero]

[bredbrain]

LMFAO Anelka's old ass...  :3

[illwithskillno1]

If only dabizas knew that he would be gettn raped by dennis a few years later for one of the best goals of all time lol!!

[phins28]

Tom selleck at goalkeeper?

[JackDavis16]

this isnt live footage though surely? this is from arsenal tv and judging by the arsenal crest this is a replay from the last 6/7 years and im guessing this commentary was added then

[xDAVEYxDENIEDx]

[THETRUTHISLIKESOAP]

Romfords Pele

[NorthBankGooner1]

Remember it like it was yday... Petit run right up to me celebrating with the cup... Up the Arsenal!!!

[RAFL94]

I hate the football these days when all that matters is money... no glory and no feel anymore. Many play for the money, not because they love it and feel that It's fun to do. Nowadays football is their job not their entertainment. Leading to an extremely boring football... I miss the football a couple of years ago. It's nothing wrong with the sport. But It's the stupid managers that are so greedy.....

[newromantic888]

Wenger is here in our hearts..........we will wi with him.

[namelessstars]

as a seven year old newcastle fan i torn apart watching this haha, just wanted big al to get some silver wear. oh well, classic game!

[hing0202]

many players has been retired.

[DaveBond21]

I always remember the Newcastle fans clapping Arsenal up the steps. It was one of ITV commentator Brian Moore's memories of his last Cup Final.

[fadgegirl76]

Overmars and Anelka's goals were unstoppable

[Jonnylegg]

27 years ago.

[RAFL94]

Anelka was barely born 27 years ago stupid... many of these players didn't play professional football 27 years ago. None did XD

[Dungarth]

how I miss these days, back when there were no foreign billionaires ruining the game and also back when Arsenal were known for their rock-solid defence, very much unlike the Arsenal of today.

[vatnable]

@Dungarth Yeah, during "those days" you only had domestic billionaires buying titles (Jack Walker, Blackburn 94/95).

[Tibialmario]

FAKE!!!!!!!!!!

[RAFL94]

lol

[superdave31]

i was at this game

[rossbain123]

wow i cant believe this was almost 11 years ago now, such good times

[BradleyBellickFBI]

very well taken by anelka!! Just think he could have been a bigger arsenal legend than Henry if he had kept his feet on the ground

[G4eva]

yea but we ended up with the better player for sure
