Over the years we have witnessed many times when we are hanging on by the odd goal and start sitting too deep and missing good chances on the break. It has been a common theme over the years. Swansea didn't cause us many problems until those late subs then literally had three good chances in the last five minutes. It would have been a travesty as we were clearly the better side but I felt both nervous and angry that we had given them the chance to snatch something.
'With all due respect' - I try not to say it because someone once said to me, when you say that you are basically telling someone they are talking $hit. Every time I have subsequently heard it confirmed it!
I'm guessing there were others here who were also at the game there when there was a ban from the terraces. There was only a few hundred of us back when Jack Charlton was manager there. Their fans had rioted a week or two earlier and that was their punishment. Typically the next home game was against us but Jim Gregory subsidised the difference between what we had paid for the terrace and the seat price.
