Remember getting drenched there in August
Left home in glorious sunshine so didn't need coat
Open end at Oldham and the heavens opened

Yeah a game of 2 seasons.

Walked the 2 1/2 miles to the ground in baking heat, no cost wishing I'd put shorts on, heavens opened as teams came out and looked like I'd just got out of an ice cold shower.

Shrewsbury away around 1988, seem to remember we had been on a long winless away run and got a pen near the end. Mcnab (I think) missed it...typical city :)

 

[East Level 2]

Pre-season friendly at Gigg Lane, think it was in 1970 and we won 5-4. I think the first competitive away game was a 3-1 defeat at Leeds in 72-73.

Can't remember if it was Doncaster away pre season - joey got sent off, or villa away when distin scored last minute to salvage a point

Never saw goal as Dads mate was trying to find somewhere to park, Royle got the goal I think. Got knocked out by Leeds in 5th round sure we were going to wembley that year and all.
