i have really missed alan hansen

Shits all over the so called pundits they have on now.

>you'll never win anything with blacks

what did he mean by this?

>Lineker as a guest

Uh oh, he'll be forced to have an opinion. Probably gets a bonus for that.

It was a different time back then, that sort of stuff was allowed on the BBC.

Here we go

BLADES REPORTING IN

HARRY BASSETT'S RED AND WHITE ARMY

>Leeds v Wimbledon is top of the bill

Leeds were strong AF

I miss when it was 1-11.

>Graham Taylor's team in Sweden
I get shivers just hearing that.

>Andy Sinton

Quality midfield

Looking forward to some Wimbledon hoof and murderball

>new backpass rule

>Batty

unironically miss Leeds in the Prem, if only for trolling value

>Warren Barton's eyebrows
also
>Roger Joseph

>that defending

this new backpass rule is bullshit

top lel

Stop saying Seggers it's clearly Sey-gers

Some quality Third Division pinball there.

>Lucozade advert

RIP Gary Speed ;_;

Have to admit this is new levels of comfy. I remember loads of these players.

imagine being alive when this happened and somehow end up posting here

Should put an archive on iPlayer of the old MoTD episodes.

>that cantona tackle
wew

Same

>cantona going in with the studs

>Half time used to be 10 minutes
wtf

>cantona booked for that

fucking christ, i thought 90s football being dirty was a meme

>foot up is an indirect free kick
I forget when that shit rule was abolished

>Indirect freekick for a penalty box foul
Err...

my Merlin Premier League sticker albums are coming to life

>this game
>Leeds v Wimbledon

yeah checks out

Cantona was so fucking based

He would definitely have been /ourguy/ in 90s Sup Forums

...

Being born before the inception of the PL should be a prerequisite for posting on Sup Forums. Retarded posts would decrease tenfold, and we'd be rid of you.

>that fucking goal

lel

BLOOTER

Can you get more Wimbledon than that?

SAF managing United??

Is it gonna be >Mouyes tier?

imagine spending your high school and uni years on an Bhutani cross-stitch forum

>that fucking goal
wahey

great assist from Cantona lol

Blooter

that white as fuck crowd

>suicide defending

Was 90s football truly this bad?

always wondered why Lee Chapman scored a shitload of goals and never got in the England team

defending only got good in the premier league in the last decade. how do you think mugs like henry scored so much

based seggers bantering the striker

>Staying behind at the stadium till 2017

Top commitment Chapman lad

Yes. Most teams played 442 and hoofed it up for the big/speedy/black number 9.

it's Leeds, it's still like that

...

because this was when England were managed by a turnip

kek

true 90s nostalgia

If someone was black they must have been Jamaican, no one ever heard of Sudan or Eritrea

Alan Hansen is a handsome man no homo

>Lineker whining about hoofball

Wimbledon were the original Leicester

>forgetting the ethiopian famine

BLADES

COYRAWW

First ever PL goal coming up.

...

>Customers

>fergie

>paul ince killing simon tracey

Ince with the Fellaini

Fucking Glyn Hodges absolute class act

literally how dirty are they?

Barry Davies is the GOAT

>you now remember when he was brought back for that West Ham game a couple of seasons ago

>those old time graphics on it

BASED DEANO

*dabs*

>fergie

>that picture

prob because could pass it back to the keeper

>when you realise Blades' rag tag bunch of English lads scored past a Euro winner

Why does it always seem like it was more sunny in ye olde times

>being an active player with Costanza hair

I vaguely remember some experiment a couple of years ago where they asked a current PL ref to watch a video of a match from the 90s and referee it by current standards. Think it ended something like 8 a side.

>Customers butthurt

Deano got capped don't you know

BENULTY

>Deane won 3 caps for England whilst with Sheffield United in the early 1990s. His England debut was as a half-time substitute in a tour match against New Zealand at Mount Smart Stadium, Auckland on 3 June 1991. His other England caps were against New Zealand at Athletic Park on 8 June 1991, and against Spain at Estadio El Sardinero, Santander, Cantabria on 9 September 1992.
jesus fuck

Like that tackle by Tracey then, would be a penalty and a red now.

NO ERA

Kanchelskis with the Mkhitarian dribble

>you will never part your hair down the middle, put on some Joe Bloggs, watch the first ever PL game then and take some tabs with the lads down the Hacienda

young giggs is good looking

no homo

>you are now aware Newcastle United and West Ham United didn't compete in the first season of the Premier League but Oldham Athletic, now in League 1, did

baggy shirts look so much better than the faggot skin tight shit they wear today.

Kanchelskis should've left it, keeper would never have stopped that. Could've been one of the GOAT Premier League goals.

...

Pallister was always shit

>pallister
kek

Baggy shirts were great.

Holy shit, how old was Cork then? Looks about 50.

>Fergoyes

sack fucking when? Never going to win the league with this useless Scottish cunt in charge.

>Poonited
>fergie

>Mouyes

33.

Retired 3 years later.

>He holds the record for first team appearances and first team goals at Wimbledon, and is also the only player to have scored in all four divisions of the pre-1992 Football League and also the Premier League.
Neat.
