Was that our first season in the Prem when he got stretchered off at home and broke his pelvis? Who did McCann play for then? Think I was at this game... Also to add to the list, the 'ghost goal' as previously mentioned and for me Hollowhead. Also, why can't people pay on the gate anymore? Shame...
It was the year we went up - we played Sunderland at home in january and Gifton scored the winner then got clattered. It was one of the best atmospheres i've seen in the gorund actually and a carcking game to boot. poor old gifton was more or less out for 18 months after that
I was here in Jersey and had only the various media reports to go on, so I will bow to the superior knowledge of anyone who was there that night.
How did I forget him, we should have a top ten on all of these on the hit list !! Also, despite his skill, Nordin Wooter used to frustrate me, so much skill so little end product.
Ramon Vega and to a lesser extent Curry pies that are just to hot to bite into but smell so good (literally)
The bearded steward in the rookery about 15 years back who used to think he was on riot patrol in Paris
From the group of three who attacked me outside their ground with razor blades in 1968, the one Walsall fan who escaped unscathed - the other two having received painful retribution from my steel-capped Hush Puppies....
No way! That man was a legend providing constant entertainment. Not many stewards get songs sung about them - was it old git or something equally affectionate that we used to call him - can't remember now! I think we were still in the Vicarage Road end for some of his tenure.
That was hilarious though. The game was like an out of season friendly until that all kicked off. In the same vein I'll add Teddy Sheringham for being a complete dick during Nigel's second testimonial game.
