Diss Town and the F.A. Vase Final, Diss and Wembley, Norfolk and London - 15th May 1994

Nosher's not much in to the whole 'footbollox' thing, but when Diss Town ('The Tangerines') made it to the FA Vase Final at Wembley, it was pretty much an obligation for the whole town to turn out. In fact, so much so that the local news ran a piece on how deserted Diss was on the day of the final - more people turned up at Wembley to support the team than the actual registered population of the whole town. As it was, Nosher scammed a lift with Steve-O, meeting in the car park near the Angel Cafe in Diss, and we met up with Kenny, Sarah, Theresa and co. in the Wembley Stadium car park. A week or so after Diss Town's win (2-1 over Taunton Town, in extra time), there's an open-top bus parade, where it seems pretty much the whole town has turned out again to see what's going on.

Crowds start to build up on St. Nicholas Street

At the top of St. Nicholas Street

St. Nicholas Street fills up

The Old Bill keeps an eye on things

Looking down St. Nicholas Street

St. Nicholas Street waits

The bus comes out of Roydon Road

The bus turns down Denmark Street

Crowds gather outside the Cornhall

More milling around

The mayor awaits at the Cornhall

Teeming throngs outside the Two Brewers

Outside the Corn Hall

The bus creeps up Market Hill

A policeman tries in vain to clear the way

The crowds pack in at the top of Pump Hill

Someone does that 'we can't hear you' thing

Orange flags are waved

A celebration

A cameraman gets some trophy action

TV news cameras look up

Outside the Corn Hall
