    That was a terrific squad - I would have loved to have seen them play Laudrup’s Swans team <cheers>

    I was on the North Bank and can still remember Tommy launching himself at Ardiles like an Exocet missile:

    I can still see in my mind’s eye the goal he scored against Shrewsbury. He cut in from the right, in front of the North Bank, and hit it with his left foot into the far top corner of the net to give us a 1-0 lead and set us off on a 5-0 win - the first win of the season: we had lost the first 3 league matches in Division 3 1970/71 season.
