Stunning goal to get them there though....... very definition of the word "cracker".

I watched the match and it was a fantastic goal by Dean Windass.
He will need to loose some weight before the start of next season because I can hear a song starting by the opposition fans...

""Who ate all the pies"

Good, just the thought of Nicky Carle anywhere near the EPL made me cry. Good for Hull

 

[nikko]

Name a better one, keeping in mind three out of 4 of the Champion's League semi-finalists were in this league.

Spain and Italy are both higher quality leagues in depth than the EPL IMHO

There are only 4 real quality sides and the rest are either just surviving or hoping for a cup run.

Look at the EPL teams progress in the UEFA cup, once the "big 4" are taken out of the picture there is v little quality left.

verhead:

Wasn't bothered who won that game, but was delighted to see a succession of headlines with the name Wind-ass in them.....truly priceless, particularly the news reader who made a point of pronouncing it Windes!

You've also got to love a sport that produces moments like that one - a 38 or 39 year old, local boy, in the twilight of his career, who scores what was surely the goal of his career, in front of 80,000 odd fans at Wembley.

Agree. You dotn judge the quality of a league by the top teams, you judge it by the overall standard. English teams below the big 4 struggle. Unlike teams from italy and spain, especially spain, where it does not seem to matter which team is in the uefa cup, they give it a good go.

100% agree - people who were there were reportedly trying to pluck their eyes out
