Neither was I, but I was in the 200,000 strong crowd against Swindon a few years earlier..

That's only the official figure. I've got it on good authority that another 46,000 were in the home end, while triple that (unable to get tickets) were watching Ceefax in pubs in the city centre.

Funny really never did alot of always but I was there,was weird cos we had to walk through their end to get to the seats on the other side of the pitch.bogs were almost someone's back garden and Craig Russell up front them were the days.

 

[jazzy]

I can confirm I was not there , and neither was the other 700,000 who suffer from Walter Mitty syndrome

 

[york away to this!]

Was Walter there too? Bet he travelled with curly watts.

Wonder why Tyler never mentions our 728,000 that went, he always manages to shoehorn ' that ' night in Barcelona into everything.

I wasn't there either....I was working. I was punished for it, booked a holiday on the Monday after the game as it looked like all hope had gone for the season and was sat in Tunisia for the play-off final.
