Oh no, that story is too much. The ending is a tear jerker. I still have family VHS recording of the live coverage, which I made a DVD of for my lovely uncle who made sure I was there, although his wife (my aunt) and my mother would have strung him up if they found out I was out of the house at that time and on the terraces shouting obscenities. RIP uncle Thomas- good times
Great times

I think what is often overlooked is that Anderlecht were a very, very good team.
They were a well drilled confident team who played lovely passing football and were very quick on the break.
It 's fair to say that both games could have gone either way and it is testament to our teams courage and resilience in beating them.
Yes. They were UEFA Cup holders, having won it the previous year (1983).

They had a world class talent in Enzo Scifo and their sweeper Morten Olsen caused us a lot of problems.

We had a very makeshift team with key players missing and were reduced to playing Gary Stevens on the right wing. It's testament to how good a player and captain that Graham Roberts was that we got through it.

Gary Mabbutt thinks it was the fans singing "There's only one Danny Thomas!" in solidarity after his missed penalty that won us the shoot-out.
