Just noticed your comment.

When ever the FA Cup comes around I always think of James.

I thought we would win the FA Cup that year but Chelsea beat us in the final.

I was thinking it was going to be our year, with Man U and Man C both out and Sunderland at home.

Now it is Sunderland away.

R.I.P. James

we still think of you on Friday nights.
