Sorry mate, the Brightwell Derby is the one we'd digressed to!I think the Wayne Clarke sitter was during the Brightwell "I just wellied it" 1-1 draw in 1990.

No problem.
However, no discussion of the Curle penalty is complete without an honourary mention for Neil Pointon and his earlier red card.

We seemed to be obsessed with buying defenders from Wimbledon in the late 80s,early 90s .
To be fair Keith Curle was a very good centre back .
It's just a shame we never got a decent partner for him .
The worst thing Peter Reid did was let Colin Hendry leave .

Good player but remember him for 3 things
Carrying that lad back to half way line after scoring at the swamp
Head butting incident with Asprialla
Pointing to the fucking goal for Giggs to shoot
On your last point, I go against the grain. I'm 100% convinced he was pointing to Immel and saying 'watch the near post'. I've thought it from the day it happened, I can't believe he would invite Giggs to shoot knowing we had Immel in net

Those 2 Derbys after we came up in 89 were great there. The brightwell one and this one. Was bedlam in that away end both years. Still can't believe white missed the sitter at the end. Loads of city in the corner of the Stretford end. Being kept in and given Elon Wesley shit loads. Top days!!
For the brightwell (I just wellied it) goal I'm in the united end, paddock behind the city dug out. As brightwell runs to the dug out the camera pans in my direction and there I am , a 16 year old lone blue celebrating.
