Crooks and Archibald were a major upgrade from honest triers Gerry Armstrong and Chris Jones. It was a beautiful sunny day as well.
One of the best days at the Lane. I was at the back of the Paxton, there was a metal fence and I perched myself on it for most of the game. Remember Mullers knocking himself out when he scored, and being carried around on fans' shoulders at the end of the game.
That was my first experience of seeing a Cup Final live. Happy memories.
I went to that game, talk about full of incidents, we got home just in time to watch MOTD. Such a let down when he didn't honour the second year of his contract and the team more or less disintegrated once he left.
If Chadli hadnt fallen asleep just after Dele's first goal for us
Christ the amount of ifs and buts that season
I know the commentary by heart......Oh I say, schoolboy's own stuff!
36 years ago today!!
I thought we were going to win the league that season. Should have won it 84/5 and adding Waddle and Allen thought we had a great chance. We stuffed a few at home early on but went to pieces and finished mid table, terrible given the squad we had. Some of the early home wins that season though were as good as i've ever seen.
Remember attending that Sheffield Utd game like it was yesterday. A real mixture of fear and excitement. New division, new kit, new programme. I'm sure they went ahead as well, through Keith Edwards.
Osgood scored two pens that day, I think.
He began his career at my home town Wrexham, then went to Spurs via Millwall and Crystal Palace then left us to join Bolton then back to Wrexham. Talk about a roller-coaster ride. I was so proud to see him in the Spurs shirt and in his early career at Wxm he was sensational. Injuries and a dramatic drop in form saw him reduced to just one Bolton appearance (53 mins then subbed) followed by his return home. In July 2016, he was arrested for possession of cannabis, cocaine and ecstasy.
His only honour was with Spurs.....1998/99 league cup.
Sad, really thought at one time he would be superb for us....
I think I was at all the FA ties that season
Maybe not Scunthorpe
What a free kick. Beasant was a giant, unbelievable to get it into the top corner from there
Wonderful night we made hard work of it, but we came through in the end.
Real shame burky left after this, I think we could have gone on and done more, back then much like today interference from the top did for the club real shame.
