Always remember a mate of ours going for a piss and missing Deano’s goal.

Ha!

The bloke in front of me made the same move just before AEG scored the first goal in the play-off at Wembley!

At 9mins 42, the Villa Werewolf plus his dad are sat behind the corner flag, recognised his old man first as he used to sell the Evening Mail in one of the booths at the top of Dale End.

Boy that team could play.  I'm sure Ipswich were about 4th in the table at the time and had already put us out the league cup.

So much is made of Saunders goal, but I think it was only third in that months goal of the month.

We were there, totally thought we were going to win the league after that game.

I love these videos but they also make me sad to think how close we came.
