Play-off final bigger than tonight.
In fact, you could argue that’s the POF is bigger than than the FA Cup final.

The FA Cup final was a far bigger game for those who were around at that time.
We had 3 play off finals sandwiching (give or take a few years) that FA Cup final so I never thought those were as big as the FA Cup final.

The cup final was unbelievable and you could feel how big the match was compared to a play off final. I still haven’t forgiven Gerrard and never will

Play off finals are the easiest to get to for a club like West Ham….getting into the automatic promotion places are the difficult thing for us…..so everyone who thinks of the play off final as being the biggest thing are solely basing it on the financials.

Had that been a dull and boring 1-0 to them,would it still be seen as being a massive game?
I think being within 20 seconds of beating the European champions gave the whole thing a status it may not have had if the actual game been different.
I dont know either way,just a different take on it.

The FA Cup final in 2006 will be the biggest game I've seen us play until our next cup final.
And I'm still haunted by the 4min on the board and then watching in slow motion as he hit it. The the shocked silence as we all went for a piss at the end of the 90mins. Fucking Gerrard.

Play off final was biggest. If we'd have lost that we'd have been fucked for years.

I don't think we'd have been too fucked, Mad Dog.
4 of our highest Premier League wage earners (Repka, Hutchison, Lomas and Dailly)were already on their way out due to contracts expiring, and the rest of the team were made up from Championship players pretty much.
It would have been a small rebuild, but I don't think we would have been fucked for years.
We were "only" £30m in debt then. We're now over 4 times that amount in debt!

I think that I was just as dejected at the playoff final against Crystal Palace as I was about the FA Cup final.
I remember throwing my expensive program into the river with all the others, getting back to the new car my dad had let me borrow and seeing that it had had a shopping trolley smashed into it because there was a little bear in an England kit on the back window. Welsh cunts.
I dreaded facing my old man as the car was literally a week old and he had a temper on him. He was also six foot three and about twenty stone. I'd seen him do not very nice things to people.
'fuck it son, it's only a car' he said. I wanted to cuddle him but of course in my family doing something like that would be met with 'fucking get off me you poof'.

The worst bit for me was when Harewood was too crippled by injury to slot home our last chance for a winner, a chance he'd normally put away in his sleep.
Can't actually remember the incident where he got injured, but have the feeling it was a clear foul.
