Missed the Hillsborough replay but went to Old Trafford. Outplayed them and when Latch scored I thought we were on our way. Then a once in a lifetime effort from Chris Nichol got them back into it. When Brian Little got their winner I would have gladly decked the little greasy headed squirt. Fast forward some years and I found myself behind him in a queue in a supermarket checkout in Hull when he was manager there.
I tapped him on the shoulder and when he turned round, no, I didn't gob him, but told him of my feelings at the time. He admitted that we were the better team that night but said when Nichols goal went in, they believed their name was on the cup.
I will wager we will not win the League Cup ever, the Alan Handson goal line clearance convinced me of that.
