What a day.. I spent the week before in London at my mates who is/was a Gillingham fan (now an avid blue, watches all the games on line in Perth Aus). My dad at the time was a director at Whites so David got us some club tickets to watch the game. My old man drove down and met us at the ground, we went into the Hilton and had a free bar and a mega fancy meal for fook all. We had curly watts and Mark/Lard sat on our table, with Oasis on the next one. Got a free prog then walked to the game, sat in the exec seats all leather and warm and watched the whole game from there.
We went two nil down and as i walked out we got one back, couldnt get back in so ran down the way to the Hilton and watched the pens on the screen with the staff. After the game we had another free meal etc and the players came in and everyone went mad! The papers the next day went mad cos the ref had joined us in the Hotel and Gill's cried foul play. Remember kissing Horlock and jumping up and down with Rosler (was at the game and after party) Will never forget that day, I cried with joy all the way home... The Scum had done the imposible in Barca 6 days earlier and we had done it to less than a week later, the Mirror the next morning had us front and back with the banner "anything you can do we can do better" still got it stored away somewhere. Wow memories.
