Remember that day! A group of us always went to the pub to watch the 6 Nations (Rugby Union) 'Super Saturday' when all the teams play on that day. We started it years ago by booking a VIP Room at the Forum - food and pool, but eventually it grew into booking places just to see it in a pub anywhere - Cardiff, Dublin and Rome etc.
That year we went up to Edinburgh in a 7 bedroom AirBnB apartment.
Knowing the game was on, about 4 blades (and a few Wednesday partners) went into the City to watch the game.
We ended up in this really down and out bar - full of locals. I think (but I'm not googling it) Crystal Palace were playing on the main TV and kicked off before the Blades game.
The barman wouldn't change channels, but agreed to put our game on a small screen in the corner with no sound on.
After the PL game finished I asked him to switch audio, but he said he couldn't do it, so we all sat around the table watching the match in silence.
The pub had no sound as they had turned the volume down on the big screen, waiting for the 3pm kick-off and the silence made us silent too! We didn't shout or call out, we whispered between ourselves, the only sound were the locals chatting.
When the ball got put through to Basham, we all stood up - in silence - the people in the pub noticed us and stopped talking, the ball went into the net and we all jumped up and down - without making any sound and everyone in pub looked on as 5 people jumped up and down hugging each other without any noise - we sat down, had a sup, and then the bar lit up again as people started talking and joking amongst themselves.
Was a really bizarre moment and will never forget it!
