Fenton. Superb day. I remember being a 12 year old listening to this on the radio. Couldn't believe it when they got back to 3-3. When Dean scored the winner, I almost fell down the stairs, running to tell my dad!
-
Remember this like yesterday, crammed around the radio at work and going mental when deano got the winner... happy days

I have a bizarre memory of that game despite not having gone. Later that night we were queuing to get into The Dome nightclub (it was 1994 so cut me some slack) and who should join the queue behind us - Graham Fenton, scorer of two goals that day!
We obviously congratulated him but I also remember he was less than complimentary about Big Ron who'd just been sacked. I found that disappointing considering Ron gave him his big chance in the LC Final. I remember saying that Big Ron had won us the cup and Fenton replied "no he didn't, the players won it!"

I was in the Duke of Marlborough in Studley with mate of mine who is a Spuds fan.
At 0-3 he was like resigned to the fact that they had lost.
At 3-3 he was galloping round the pub like a lunatic shouting right in my face how they were going to win...
He went home at 4.55!
Everytime I see him I remind him of that day! Brilliant!

The only time my Dad and I have been to an away match together. Great great memories. Thank you Deano!
-
I was ten.
I went with my mom to drop my dad off to catch the coach to the game, and as we arrived at the Villa Leisure Centre, he pulled an extra ticket out of the glove box and told me I was coming too. :D

One thing for certain we have had some decent away wins at Tottenham, usually when you didn't see them coming.
-
My favourite away game ever. Just magic. In the days when we beat Tottenham twice every season. One of Garry Parkers last decent matches. Nil Lamptey made a rare appearance in this one too as sub.
-
8 days earlier, Ron had been sacked - but can anyone remember the friendly we played between those dates -
who, where and why did we play it ??
-
No idea. Unless it was the Bloose at Bodymoor?
-
