Wasn't the stadium called the White Rock and New Stadium

I think a lot of people felt that was basically us winning the trophy too.

I felt that as well.

Although, by the time I got to a freezing cold Wembley and I couldn't feel my feet, all the neuroses of following the Swans for 23 years at that point returned and by the time we kicked off, I was convinced Bradford were going to score from a corner and then park the bus. Thank god those intrusive thoughts were put to bed before half time. I'm not sure I could have coped with another Reading-style encounter.

I have never been as cold regarding a Swans game as I have walking down the Bayswater Road on the way to that final, and I can remember an Autoglass/JPT/Whatever match against Walsall that saw me banging my feet against the floor to get some sort of feeling into them when it went to extra time.

Having come from 19° spain to minus whateveritwas the whole weekend was an endurance but worth it obviously for the win. I remember standing on the concourse with a cold beer wondering what was I doing

Forest at home will never be topped for atmosphere and elation

Cardiff in the league cup

Football wise the first 45 minutes against West Brom in the PL when we ripped them apart, best 45 minutes ever

3-2 against arsenal and 1-0 against Man City in that first season just because we were toppling the “giants”

Quite simply the best 45 minutes by a Swansea City side. Ever.

I can remember their manager Brian Tinnion still sat on the bench after everyone else had gone down the tunnel, even though it was Bristol City I didn't half feel sorry for him!

I’m pretty sure we’d beaten Barnsley by five, either the week before or the week after? We were devastating for a couple of weeks.. Kev Mcleod IIRC, on fire.

We scored over 100 goals in all competitions that season. One of the most fun in my time watching the Swans.

And they were no mugs either. They had Lukaku up front that night.

I don't think he touched the ball that first half though. Mind you, neither did any other WBA player

My unbiased, balanced, view is that we would have won the cup that year if the referee hadn’t shat the bed in favour of the big bollocks team.

I thought it was second half!! The mind plays tricks sometimes!

I remember that too, I couldn't remember who the manager was though. Thought it was Gary Johnson. I'd had a few at half time so wasn't completely sure if I was imagining it at the time!
