I was there too, great afternoon out.  Put me down as one of those who wonders if Cascarino's header had gone in, would it have all been different?

Tony Daley had a spectacular season that year when he was switched to the right.  It seemed the one year when his crossing was outstanding.  I think Taylor got him to think a bit more about his delivery and it paid massive dividends.  I remember the Christmas period when he took Man Utd and Arsenal to the cleaners in 3 days at Villa Park.

Bloody shame Taylor left for England at the end of that season.  I think if he had stayed he may well be revered in the way Saunders is.

I remember how Sid used to drop deep to get the ball off the defenders and then hit long crossfield balls over the opposition left back into the space for Tony Daley to run on to.  As well as the Arsenal and Man Utd home games, the 6-2 demolition of Everton really stands out from that season.
