If we'd even only drawn those four games I think we'd have won it by one or two points iirc,remember it was still two points for a win back then,as a young blue I can remember an evening game v Burnley near the end of that season,packed house,really nervy game,we went one up in the second half,but couldn't see it through and baldy Peter noble equalised near the end,that was our Achilles heel that campaign,we drew too many games!!
Fri night match. We were all dressed for a night out in town afterwards, so couldn't join in any of the madness that the Park End used to churn up.
Kinell Alan,what you putting a true legend together with the likes of Belfitt?
lolWhat a magnificent sight that is, being snow bound making it more so, looking at how far back it goes it makes you wonder how it fitted on to Goodison Rd
Love that shot,what were we thinking replacing it with what we have now?
It's for @Allan WhittleKinell Alan,what you putting a true legend together with the likes of Belfitt?
And to see Burnley and especially Leighton James celebrating like they had won the league for themselves!! £&£@&£@£&&@
I think it was probably a valuable point for Burnley in fairness allez,I'm not sure but they were probably close to going down that season!!
Worked with Tiger for years in Falkirk, crabbit so n so, but a lovely guy.
Just checked! You are too generous a soul Dario! They stayed up by 12 points = 6 wins in tenth position!!! LJ was the Robbie savage of that era, after emlyn Hughes that is!!!
jeez,my memory mate!!I remember us being linked with Leighton James a few times,maybe when we bought Dave Thomas,as you say he was a narky so and so,bloody good winger I thought though,a little bit similar to heighway in style.
