  1. Only tops I get are when they're down to a fiver and don't have any sponsor logo on. Another 'meh' effort this one.
  2. Thought that to begin with from the side, until you see the camera angle looking 'straight on' that you mustn't have seen yet. VAR would have wiped it on that.
  3. Nope - hand was up but it was the head the made contact - lino 40 yards away had no chance of seeing this and shouldnt have got involved. You have VAR for all 4th round grounds or none, pathetic.
  4. 1982/83 Crystal Palace Courtesy of free tickets given to my primary school. Rodger Wylde scored, Andy Goram saved a Vince Hilaire Penalty. A win I think.
  5. Unlike last day salvation in 1999 and 2005 I don't see this being a game we will win, as you say Charlton's approach to the 'Dale game will be key. The match between Scunny and Plymouth on Tuesday is vital for us as will dictate Charlton's needs.
  6. Anybody with the correct stats, could they fix his page? I'm sure he was a little more prolific than some wag has decided. :-) https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Roger_Palmer_(footballer)
  7. If you dont mind the 15/20 walk from Accrington Town Centre to the ground - Grants Bar has it's own micro brewery with That'd have been The Oaklea Tavern, sadly it closed and now flats. Unless you fancy a 15/20 min walk into town it's the Crown (at ground) or The Greyhound (5 mins), both may not tick all the OP's boxes.
  8. 1. Hallworth 2. Irwin 3.Barlow 4.Henry 5.Barrett 6.Warhurst 7.Adams 8.Palmer 9.Marshall 10.Milligan 11.Holden R 12.Donachie (unused) 14.Rhodes (unused) So big Joe did put a keeper on the bench for the 2nd leg for insurance in the days when you never normally named a keeper on your bench.
  9. Palace away 95/96 I reckon it was - we came from 2 down - Hallworth came off the bench as a striker then had a clear header to win it but fluffed it.
  10. Jon Hallworth had a go in a league match in the mid 90's I recall.
  11. I was in the main stand with my Liverpool pal - 6133 :-) You 6132 were a sight to behold. Though I had to keep schtum when Robbie fired his rocket into the Kop goal.
  12. Proof that for a golden week (cant find the city game) before Xmas 1996, that Ormondroyd was not :censored:. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wd_Tt02TyeA Was at Molineux that day, bright moment in a miserable season.
  13. The ticket office open Saturday morning?, if not wont be in the area again until near kick off and then have to hope for the best.
  14. That'd be the Spring 1999 match, Gary Kelly with the save, Paul Reid an Dux with the goals. Orlygsson was like a man possessed. Probably my favourite ever away win, our fans were incredible all match and ripped the Kippax fans to shreds with our chants and put downs. Big Joe copped for some too. To cap it off, there was also a male streaker, must have been a cold day as there was not a lot to see. Other memories being held back after the final whistle for 15 mins but still being charged at by City fans when we left with some 'tics unfortunately floored, Police horses intervened and City fans then started punching the horses... class. I then seemed to be the only Latic on one the Bus Specials back into town full of fuming City fans, recall having to adopt a fake Manc accent to survive the journey but loved every second of their whining.
  15. If Carlisle let Fleetwood win, they both go through. Why aren't final group games played at the same time, open to abuse. Shocking competition.
  16. It was Bryan Robson plodding back with his zimmer frame that was offside, '94 rules could have easily chalked it off but he didn't really affect the passage of play so would have been harsh (funny mind) on United to give it. Was more miffed with Sharp's howler and big Joe for not putting Stitch on to kill the last minute.
  17. Secured Anfield tickets (my stub below !) after a 12 hour queue overnight on Sheepfoot Lane - We all took it in turns to go back to the cars for 1 hour kips . There were even sofa's and armchairs in the queue ! The banter amongst the couple of thousand 'tics that night/morning was incredible - residents were probably fuming. Seem to recall the OT allocation didn't sell out initially, so allowed Anfield attendees to quckly snap up, meaning I got to both.
  18. Beating the Blades early in 91/92 stands out for me, we were 2-0 up in the first half - they had two men sent off before half time. They lost another player towards the end of the game too injured. So finished with 8 men. The final score? 2-1 and we were hanging on by our fingertips ! Typical Latics.
  19. There's finally a video of the West Ham / Notts Co match, shame it doesn't show any scenes after full time though.
