I was there but I don't remember our goal at all, just the Kevin Francis non-foul that led to their penalty."Dr Bob" wrote:My (highly fallible) memory is telling me he came to meet a short corner, he left his defender behind and had to stoop slightly to head the ball in at the near post (London Road/Beech Road corner).

To be honest, I only remember that he played in the game, so it was worth a punt."ty cobb" wrote:Well done that man."SmileyMan" wrote:Was that a young John Terry, or was he on the right?
My victory is no compensation for the agony caused by opening up the supperating wound that is that match.

Re:
My boss in those days was a Chelsea fan and he watched the game in a London pub, where Liam Gallagher happened to be drinking. Liam apparently payed little attention to the game until the penalty was awarded, at which point he launched a stream of abuse at the telly and stormed out of the pub at the injustice of it all!"tomoufc" wrote:Windass has always maintained that KF in fact did foul in the box and it was a clear-cut penalty. Very strange.
My abiding memory is of Frank Leboeuf standing arrogantly with his arms outstretched after scoring the penalty, and wanting to kill him. I then felt very, very low for a long time, knowing that that was probably the last chance we'd ever have of beating a really big team.

Goal at 2.30, commentator's words at 2.45. Half a point, methinks....

.....and thinking that if only Elliott Jackson had had the courage of his convictions and dived fully in the direction he moved then he would have saved the damn thing anyway....
The penalty was one of those situations when I just wish that one day the 'offender' would just walk up to the 'victim' and give him a full bloodied boot in the relevent place to show him what being kicked is actually like rather than the slight gust of air that seemed to have knocked him down....the player may be banned for quite some time, but I feel it would have been worth it

Re:
Well I was in Osler Road level with the penalty area so about 20 yards away and probably closer than Deano on the halfway line...so I'm right"tomoufc" wrote:Windass has always maintained that KF in fact did foul in the box and it was a clear-cut penalty. Very strange.

And Frank Lebeouf was an insufferable arrogant winker.
Even though he certainly is what you called him, you can't blame a striker for scoring a penalty - that's his job.
The problem was that for the last five minutes, someone had obviously passed a message to Reed that the current result was unacceptable, and he needed to sort it out or he wouldn't be reffing the Premiership again.
Definitely a match on the "revenge" list for our inevitable march back up to the top, along with denying Liverpool a European place at some point.

You can throw Everton into that list especially with a back pass involved.Definitely a match on the "revenge" list for our inevitable march back up to the top, along with denying Liverpool a European place at some point.
