First time I have seen footage of the highlights of the above game although I saw the goals in youtube a few years ago.
It was Cliff Calvert's debut for us and he created an excellent chance for Woody to put us into the lead but Woody didnt volley it right. It was David Irving's (on loan from Everton) second and last sub appearance for us and am sure he wasnt expecting to replace TC who didnt look happy at being subbed. A painful collision between Irving and Guthrie near the end! There was a streaker on the pitch in the Gills v Palace match!
Me and my Norwich mate were planning to go to the Hammers v Blades match that day (we were 13 at the time) travelling by train from our boarding school near Newbury. We lied in the Exeat form saying that we were going to be in Newbury all day. When we checked for the times of trains leaving Paddington for Newbury after the match we realised that we would have to leave Upton Park at half time for us to be back at school before bed time. Instead we went to Arsenal v Everton
