00:00It's a moment for not just Eddie Howney's players, it's the whole city.
00:04It's for the city, it's for everybody.
00:05Like, everyone, the trophy drought, it was so long, so long.
00:10We couldn't comprehend it.
00:12It's generation stuff, it's literally generation stuff.
00:15You go meet your dad tonight, I'll go meet my dad,
00:17we'll be like, we've just experienced a moment,
00:20neither of us probably for the first time.
00:22My dad's in his 60s and he can't remember,
00:24he was only six when they lifted their first game,
00:26he can't remember it.
00:27He's experienced all of this for the first time,
00:30we're the same as us, I'm 37.
00:32I knew this day would come, I just didn't really think it would be today.
00:38And that's what happens with these things, you can't predict life.
00:40Sometimes things do happen, sometimes fairy tales do come true,
00:45and today, that was it.
00:47That wasn't just for, like you say, Howney's players,
00:50that was for us, that was for you,
00:53that was for everybody who's felt the pain
00:56of what this football club's been to support at times.
00:59It's been hard.
