This celebrating of the 10 year anniversary of the Arsenal victory 11:39 - Jan 12 with 2913 views | Stenvict | Does anyone else find it a little embarrassing? 1. We didn't even win the tie, we won half of it. 2. Out of all the Big 6 teams, Arsenal were and still are the kind of team you could sh1thouse your way to victory. After all, Birmingham beat them in the final. 3. It's not like we were minnows, we were mid-lower Championship at the time. We used to regularly compete with Arsenal. This is the kind of thing I'd expect Norwich fans to celebrate. |  |

This celebrating of the 10 year anniversary of the Arsenal victory on 11:44 - Jan 12 with 2868 views | SomethingBlue | It's pretty much our only big win of the past 15 years so I'm ok with remembering it tbh, was a cracking night and a well-done occasion by the club, showing how these things can be managed when ME is bothered. |  |

Very. It's just the sort of thing we have laughed at them for. Do we even have an open top bus? |  |

This celebrating of the 10 year anniversary of the Arsenal victory on 11:47 - Jan 12 with 2854 views | RegencyBlue | If Norwich were doing it we would be making jokes about an open top bus parade about now! Sad times. |  | |  |
This celebrating of the 10 year anniversary of the Arsenal victory on 11:50 - Jan 12 with 2819 views | Radlett_blue | It's about the only excitement Town supporters have had in the last 15 years, save for reaching the play offs under Mick. The chances of Town beating Arsenal over 2 legs were next to non existent, but the performance & result in the first leg gave us a flicker of hope. With half an hour to play, we were still ahead on aggregate, despite barely registering a single shot & Arsenal were beginning to become agitated. |  |

This celebrating of the 10 year anniversary of the Arsenal victory on 11:57 - Jan 12 with 2773 views | stonojnr | Nope. But I dont think we are celebrating it,merely remembering it did happen, 90mins from Wembley closest we are likely to get for some time. I was digging through some old stuff at the weekend as a clear out, and found the away ticket and saw the date which made me think wow was that really 10 years ago, lots happened since then, not all for the good, none of us back then thought the club would be in this state even if we were about to appoint Paul Jewell |  | |  |
This celebrating of the 10 year anniversary of the Arsenal victory on 12:21 - Jan 12 with 2708 views | TieDyedIn95 | Yeah it's painful. We won the first leg and got smashed in the second. We then hoofed and hounded our way to league safety while also getting smashed against Norwich at home in a way we had never had before. We shouldn't even mention that season. The sad thing is had we not appointed Jewell I am half convinced Keane would have taken us to the final and we'd have beaten Brum and still stayed up in the league. Arsenal were not interested that season, and the standard of the cup that year was very weak that I think Keane with his experience with cups would have seen us actually do it. Instead we sacrificed the cup for the league, got smashed by Chelsea in the in-between in another total humiliation which sums Evans era up perfectly. Just total chaos, we had a cup semi-final and between that we had three different people running the first team. That is not a way to run a club. Keane should have gone after if we did lose, but it was the one thing he could have achieved. |  |

This celebrating of the 10 year anniversary of the Arsenal victory on 12:36 - Jan 12 with 2642 views | N2_Blue | It's embarrassing, and just another reminder of how far we have fallen. I am 40 and I am almost certain I will never see my club play above the 2nd tier of English football or play in a major cup final in my lifetime. I used to love being excited everytime ITFC had a match, sometimes the days between matches seemed to go on forever but now i have complete apathy and I'm just no longer bothered. It still hurts though, because it shouldn't be like this, and i will always be a fan of football, but ITFC fans of the last 15 years must be among the most long suffering in the country and it's not fun anymore because there is actually no hope. As fans of football we have to accept our club cannot always win or be successful and there are highs and lows but with Town its just one big low point as we spiral ever downwards and it is the lack of hope or any awareness that the club is slowly dying that actually pains more than anything. |  |

This celebrating of the 10 year anniversary of the Arsenal victory on 12:38 - Jan 12 with 2639 views | clive_baker | It's so cringe. Celebrating a 1st leg victory in the League Cup from 10 years ago. I was at ME's offices not too long ago, within the last couple of years, and they were playing a clip of Priskin's goal. Pretty cringe that it's the highlight of the ME era. |  |

This celebrating of the 10 year anniversary of the Arsenal victory on 12:41 - Jan 12 with 2621 views | Vaughan8 | We were near the bottom of the championship, having just got thrashed 7-0 by Chelsea the game earlier and had just sacked Roy Keane. Oh and we were rubbish. But yes were weren't minnows. The last decent cup run we've had. However "celebrating it" is a bit sad. |  | |  |

it's a better highlight than losing the play off semi final to Norwich. |  |

It was an enjoyable evening though. I actually enjoyed going to the away game too. Sat quite close to Wilnis and David Wright. Just a shame the game went the way it did. |  | |  |

This celebrating of the 10 year anniversary of the Arsenal victory on 14:52 - Jan 12 with 2404 views | Chrisd | Without doubt. Ultimately celebrating a plucky attempt to make the League Cup final. Sadly, this is what we’ve become as a club because our recent history is so insignificant, scratching around for achievements to be proud of, but still end up as failures. It’s really embarrassing and one of a small club mentality. That’s us under ME I’m afraid. [Post edited 12 Jan 2021 14:58]
