Leyther_Matt Posted December 13, 2022 Share Posted December 13, 2022 Think they sold out for the 3-3 in year one at the Reebok but obviously it was their first visit and a smaller allocation back then. Suppose we can’t criticise for having a revitalised away support with the numbers we’ve been taking for the last 2 seasons compared with so many measured in the 100s in the Championship. Missed the one when we got relegated there but even the year before that they were lapping it up that we were on our arse. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gonzo Posted December 13, 2022 Author Share Posted December 13, 2022 Would love to track down Jack Deardens bit at the end of that Derby game when we went down. It was fantastic listening albeit in dreadful circumstances. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This was 20+ years before mobile TVs. As an aside, the first hand-held telly I ever saw was on the special train back from Southampton in THAT FA Cup game.

Woznotwas Posted December 15, 2022 Share Posted December 15, 2022 Superb display by Reidy and co. but a bit hairy after full time. Managed to get to the Hatton Arms afterwards. Big pub on lights where A50 turns towards Burton. Place rammed with exuberant Whites. Watched the highlights show accompanied by Wemberlee singing. Slight downside was that I had parked in a side street near the ground and received a ticket for parking within 45ft of a road junction!
