Wasn't the best of games IIRC but a hell of an experience.

The build up in the 'norwich' part of the city, pubs and streets around was brilliant.

Walking in to a stadium like that as full as it was will stay with me.

Awful way to lose I agree, Brum fans we met after the game seemed pretty pleasant, most offered their sympathies and best wishes.
