I was there in 68 FA Cup Final

[phild]

I may only have been four months old at the time but at least I can say that the Albion have won a major trophy in my lifetime. Whether that's a good thing or bad is open to interpretation but it is what it is.

I'm not going to pretend that I was there because I wasn't and if I got to watch it on TV it appears I've long forgotten said auspicious occasion but I have held the FA Cup.

It was on display at Preston North End before an FA Cup tie we played there years ago and I have a photo with me and a pal holding it aloft while wearing white cotton gloves to protect the trophy.

God knows how many pairs of hands were in those gloves before we put them on but you can be assured we washed ours straight after ��.

It may come as a shock to you but....

Not remotely. The current FA Cup is in it's fifth carnation. While I have no idea which one we held it was very definitely an FA Cup though 😊.
