A quite amazing season that. The year before we nearly get relegated and the next season we come 2nd.
Yep, it was when football was good.
I remember that season well! We fell apart losing 3-0 at home to Wimbledon and 2-0 at Coventry within a week
We also lost 2-0 at Man U. To be fair we were never quite good enough to win it. We relied too much on Mcgrath, Platt and Cowans.
True. We never had a decent striker. We sold McInally in the summer to Bayern, and Olney led the line until Cascarino was signed, and that was a disaster. I think Adrian Heath had a few games as well but never settled.
Doug signing Cascarino as he as £300k cheaper than Taylor's choice of Sheringham **** us up that season. Had we got Teddy we'd had been so much closer. Great player.
I didn't know that. Thanks Doug
