Quote: BurnleyDave "Can't remember the year but a match against Halifax - we all thought it would be an easy win but at 30-all ( I think) it was suddenly a near disaster! Think it was Sean Hoppe who scored to win the match for us late on.'"
Dave I'm so glad you've posted this!
This is one of those games that just sticks in your mind, and you think only you remember it! It was 2000-2001ish, and I remember Paul 'Les' Davidson playing for Halifax really trying to dish it out, and taking great pleasure in the fact that his side were rubbing it in the faces of his 'beloved' Saints speccies who were really giving him some grief.
Cue us scoring late on, pandemonium on the terraces, and Davidson heads straight down the tunnel without shaking hands, leaving his forearm protector behind him on the pitch, it having been unceremoniously ripped off!
That's Knowsley Road for you. The most mundane of nights can become magical in a heartbeat. God I'll miss the place.
Does anyone else have any strange nondescript games that inexplicably stick in their mind?
