Collar and ties in The Witton Lane Stand, furled umbrella in the dugout - always classy in B6! Actually it's not really a dug out -it's a bench against the wall. I do recall that the manager etc did sit on that side but within the stand at one point before switching to Trinity Road side.

This explains why I thought Steve Bruce had gained some height and a suit at the weekend.

I was sitting a few rows back from the bench and, if memory serves, Mike Ferguson , who hadn't exactly played a blinder , came off.   As he approached the bench Tommy Doc applauded him but , as Ferguson was sitting down , TD looked up at the Crowd and theatrically raised his eyes  heavenwards, brought roar's of laughter from those who saw it , a typical 'Doc' reaction.....can't get over the fact that I spotted myself in the crowd in that exact spot, just after Villa scored their winner, this one's a ' keeper ' !.....Godzvilla!
