Was at that game remember it well, the state of that pitch probably wouldn't go ahead nowadays?

[Ed the Ball]

Yep I was there, remember the long range lob by Micky Robinson to make it 2-0. Those of us in the away end went mental. Proper soaking as well.

Thanks for posting kevster; great memories.

If you closely at Maccas goal, the ball was moving when the corner kick was taken.

The pitch was pretty awful!! When people bang on about players not being as fit 'back in the day' its easy to forget they played 90 minutes on what was often just a mix of mud and sand, no ultra smooth, short grassed, manicured pitches!
Happy Days!!

those were the day, like it when Dawes gets booked, in those days players stood right nose to nose with the ref to intimidate them.

i used to stand in that open end of the bridge and kick the blue corrugated fence dividing the home and away fans on the way out, it was the done thing!
