Don't even remember that though I didn't live in Dublin at the time,
Shelbourne v Rangers, 1998
Fears that Rangers supporters would wreck the gaff as soon as they touched down on Irish soil had led Shelbourne to relinquish home advantage. Bizarrely, they had to play their home leg in Prenton Park.
The match is only remembered now for the surreal opening when Shels went 2-0 ahead. Early in the second half, Pat Morley dinked the keeper and made it 3-0. Very rarely is the rest of the game even shown.
Quite right too. Rangers re-gathered themselves and won 5-3. They won 2-0 in Ibrox.
Many of the Shels fans missed the early burst. The police had held them back for their own safety as they sorted what Karl McGinnity described as "a cantankerous horde" of Rangers fans.
Mark Rutherford blasted home in one of his final games for Shelbourne. New manager, the grizzled veteran Dermot Keely told that he'd no place for him.
