John Watson

'Bruce has got the taste of Wembley in his nostrils.' 

'...so different from the scenes in 1872, at the cup final none of us can remember.' 

'For those of you watching in black and white, Spurs are in the yellow strip.' 

'I was about to say something far more interesting before being interrupted...' 

'There is still nothing on the proverbial scoreboard.' 

'It looks like a one-man show here though there are two men involved.' 

'And Seaman, just like a falling oak, manages to change direction.' 

'Paul Gascoigne has recently become a father and was booked for over-celebrating.'

'The match was settled either side of half-time.' 

'The atmosphere here is literally electric.' 

'And what a time to score! 22 minutes gone.' 

'Brazil - they're so good it's like they are running around the pitch playing with themselves.' 

'It's a football stadium in the truest sense of the word.' 

'England could have been 1-0 down on two occasions now.' 

'I know that Gareth Barry has been told by Howard Wilkinson to take a long hard look at these with his left foot.' 

'I've lost count of how many chances Helsingborg have had. It's at least five.' 

'The game is balanced in Arsenal's favour.' 

'And I suppose they [Spurs] are nearer to being out of the FA Cup now than at any other time since the first half of this season, when they weren't ever in it anyway.' 

'You cannot possibly have counted the number of passes made but there were eight."

'With the last kick of the game it was scored with a header.' 

'Well its Liverpool 2 Ipswich 0 and if it stays this way I`ve got to fancy Liverpool for the win.' 

'If a team scores early on it often takes an early lead.' 

'TheIr manager Howard Wilkinson isn't here today which strongly suggests that he may be somewhere else.'
