Both teams seemed to cancel each other out - we seemed to settle for a draw, sat back a bit with 10/15 to go.
And paid the price.
Gutted
Meanwhile, I was being crushed in the Holt end at the back - some Blues idiots had kicked the wooden exit doors in prior to kick off we arrived 10 minutes late M6 hold up - nothing went right that day ...doh -

We learned from past experience Not to use the usual (sign posted) route, but to carry on to the next exit, follow signs to WBA, then keep going past their ground and approach from the...erm...rear, as the say.
iirc there was cash at the gate and having been coerced into bringing girlfriends with us we strolled in to the paddock, with the Holte to our right hand, sadly, a perfect view of the goal.

With getting there late we just piled in - big mistake fans being sick being crushed etc awful day.... in the back of the Holt end it was that packed you could not get on the terraces at the back ..... we left 10 minutes early as we were seeing very little of this game .... heard a roar asked the nearby coach driver who had scored - topped the day of lovely ...doh
