16 at the time. Boiling hot day, bright green shirt on, a line of coaches that went on and on and on, Luton fans on Motorway, one of best scramble goals ever, can still in my mind hear Blades singing outside Cherry Tree later on that night Hard to believe it happened when you look at the next 20 years of near misses and horror relegations from top flight.

Anyone remember Breacker's goal at Derby for Luton - an absolute peach I seem to recall.

Yes, still got the goals on video from ITV's Goals of the Year programme. We go up to 'Back in the High Life' by Steve Winwood and they go down to 'Road to Hell' by Chris Rea.

Tim Breacker's was a 30 yard screamer.

On the video you can see wednesday fans mistakenly celebrating when the wrong result was relayed from Derby.

20 bloody years, we've had some good times since as well.

Went back to having a season ticket the following year, when did the seats go on the kop?

Summer of 1991 I think.

Paul Beesely scored first goal at that end for us I believe against West Ham - nice finish from a Hodges cross.

Come on help me out, I’m crap with dates and I'm trying to remember when I've had season tickets.

Ticket on kop when in 2nd division as a teenager, can't remember year.

Then one in 90/91 but didn't renew when the seats went on the kop, if that was 91 then ticket was for one season only.

Had another when we could have unreserved seating on the Lane upper [sure Dean Saunders goal against Port Vale was watched from up there] and I’m sure for two seasons. not sure if the second season was prior to Deano goal or post.

Then had south stand seats from when X reg cars were out until now. What were the years?
