39 Years ago today
« on: October 21, 2017, 12:32:42 AM »
Our first win over our neighbours for 3 years - I was working in the city centre at the time and despite us finishing at least top 6 or 7 (and of course 4th in 1977) the blues fans I worked with banged on about beating us home and away twice and 3-2 before that - they were annually celebrating avoiding relegation at the time.

I was on the right hand corner of the Tilton looking at the pitch and remember Andy Gray's winning goal as if it was yesterday.

Any other memories anyone ?
