It was an horrendous afternoon from start to finish. I seem to remember there was a bit more room down at the front and green staggered fencing.Do you remember how tightly packed we were behind the goal?
Hendry made his debut the following week and was man of the match despite a 3-0 home defeat to Forest. Pretty sure it was Machin’s final home gameBrian Gayle had a mare that day.
IIRC we had just signed Colin Hendry who was sat in the stands watching.
That was the League Cup game which finished 0-0 and we won the second leg. We also played there in the third division and lost 1-0. I was in the home bit for that game and the locals were gloating slightly.Wycombe Wanderers away midweek. We didn't have a shot on target for 85 minutes.
We even took the piss by singing about it.
Yep, i was there.Southampton away under keegan.
Got beat 2-0. Should have been about
8-0.
Players came over at the end to clap fans and were told very clearly to go away.
Yes that was some disappointment. Massive following, great atmosphere and the more chances we missed (or the more times we hit the woodwork) the more inevitable the defeat became.
Digging out the keeper Steve Cherry?? for his weight certainly came back to bite us and Tommy Johnson was electric on the flanks.
I remember thinking on the way back we might sign him but needless to say we never bothered and he went to Villa.
Almost on the back of the 5-1 too, I'd blanked that one outBoro in 2008 , Wigan 4-0 loss in 2006 but one that sticks out is the 5-0 defeat at Highbury in 2000, left ground and heavens opened then came to a stop on M1 near Luton on way home and never moved for about 3 hours
Top fella Steve Cherry and despite us thinking it, our name certainly wasn't on the cup that year !!Yes that was some disappointment. Massive following, great atmosphere and the more chances we missed (or the more times we hit the woodwork) the more inevitable the defeat became.
