January 13th 1993: Liverpool 0 Bolton 2. The BN is requesting your memories (albeit without a clear entry mechanism, unless you just comment below the piece); you may also/alternatively reminisce herein.

(Yes, I was there.)

[ohjimmyjimmy]

I was there too, sat in the liverpool end with my dad!

[Lost Leopard Spot]

Sadly I was not there, and therefore have no memories to contribute

[I occasionally keep a diary. I've just checked, 1993 was a year I didn't]

Lovely scouse kids outside the ground 'offering' to look after our car for a pound.
Liverpool fans moaning at half time that 'their little fuccccccchking winga is tearin us to peesas'

[Andy Waller]

Has anyone seen the Dave Higson video of this game? It's amazing.

[Lord Kangana]

Wasn't Bruce's nickname 'The Sergeant Major' ?

[Loyal White]

I bet Mike Marsh still remembers this game. The BEN should ask him for his memories .

[YtarmyYtarmy]

We came out and some cretin ran up the back of our car on the East Lancs, so didnt get back for last orders But the game was remarkable and one of the top 10 Bolton games in recent times IMHO. Lasting memory will be the entire KOP clapping off our boys at the end of the game. As I recall, LFC started an award for best away teams/fans, we were given it that year.

One of my favourite games of all time. Had a video of it somewhere. Lee was incredible that night and Double Scotch were other worldly

Also did anyone see the article in The Guardian today about Bradford and asking what have been the greatest giant killing acts of the cup. Surprisingly enough not a single mention of this game. Bearing in mind at the time Liverpool were the cup holder, the season after we beat Everton, Arsenal and Villa before coming unstuck against bloody Oldham

Mark f*cking f*ck shit bastard "Paddy" Patterson.

Why did you have to bring that up then?

[americantrotter]

Had the t-shirt. Wore it to school a lot. No one knew what the hell it was about, but I didn't care at all. Wore it till it barely held together.

Thanks for the link TKIZ - gave me goose bumps that. My best night ever watching the lads. Would be hard for todays youngsters to understand how much bigger the FA cup was then and how big a shock our win & performance was.

For those on here who like to indulge in a bit of scouse bashing - YtarmyYtarmy's post and the guy on the Kop applauding Walkers goal should at least demonstrate that when they were at the top of their game, Liverpool fans showed a lot more class than Utd's fans ever would do in the same position.

No worries Harry, had a fair few Liverpool fans in school the next day, ashen faced

I missed it. Some tosspot in Sth Wales had put in a grievance and I had to be down thee to sort it out. I listened on't car wireless as I drove up the A49. I was in Hereford when the first went in.

Isn't it that one where, with five minutes left he starts 'singing' at Liverpool 'you're so shit it's unbelievable'? Dave Higson playing a blinder...
