Can recall a few - notably semi final's that I attended.
Lost in 1991, when we had a far better team than them, at Wembley, but lost 3-1 (we did go on to win the league though) Fatboy's free kick beating Seaman from 30 + yards
1993, just 2 years later at Wembley again, we got our revenge, Adams with a back post header from a free kick and Dixon was sent off. 1-0 to the Arsenal.

2001 - Old Trafford we won after going behind, Sol's last match for the tiny totts going off injured and Bobby Pires slotting the winner following a typically fabulous Vieira run through the centre of midfield.
Was there in '91 when Fatboy and the Smug Jug-ears wanker ruined our potential double at Wembley. What a horrible fucking day that was. Sadly was working away for the return 2 years later when the Donkey Won the Derby (best unofficial T-shirt ever purchased !)
Was also there at OT for that 2001 semi. They were full of it because if memory serves me right Glenda had taken over for them and they also desperately tried to rush Sol back to fitness for it. I remember their rapturous applause when the teams were announced and us having the kindness to let Gary Fucking Doherty score before putting them back in their box. I don't recall much else about that day as I got absolutely wankered but one pleasing memory was a mate of mine sitting one their scummy wankers on his arse outside one of the shit pubs in the Salford backwaters after he heard him trying to make a joke about Rocky dying. I'm not one of the Stone Island brigade by a long chalk but seeing one of their tossers spitting blood out after that made a great day even better
1982 when they were putting together back to back FA Cup wins..third round at the Lane and a mistake by Pat Jennings knocked us out.
1991 ..about 200 Dublin Arsenal fans packed into the upstairs lounge of The Ha'penny Bridge Pub..many more downstairs for one of the biggest disappointments ever. One lady there told me she hated that Gas-greene fella from Spurs.
1993.."He's behind you" The Donkey won the derby..not so many in the Ha'Penny Bridge in that morning but a brilliant day.
2001...At home on the sofa, thinking for a while it was going to be one of those days , Bobby Pires had a personal battle with Sullivan in the Spurs goal, Sullivan actually was outstanding on the day but Bob got the last laugh.

That semi was only a week after Rocky's death and a week after the NLD at Highbury..in fairness the Scum fans did respect the minutes silence at Highbury, but Im glad your mate sorted that idiot out.

To be fair they did.....and practically all of them behaved that day......just this one bellend trying to make up his own song about "who's that lying on the floor" or some such shit. Same sort of retarded pisshead who looks for approval from his mates when singing pathetic songs about Hillsborough / Munich or some other nonsense that involves human tragedy.
I think we were all impressed at the way 99.9% of the Spuds conducted themselves after Rocky's death though. Credit to them for that
