Possibly the most ramshackle ground I’ve visited (although Halifax ran it close)-the cries of ‘Megson out’
were ringing around Layer Road following a 3-1 defeat in January 2006.
The scene of a famous FA Cup upset-Colchester beating Don Revie’s Leeds 3-2 in the 5th Round in 1971.
I am very fortunate in having Ray Crawford as a friend. For those who don't know Ray scored two goals for Colchester in that game. he told me a story once that they had Leeds watched and noticed that Gary Sprake was hesitant coming off his line at times. When Colchester got a free kick Ray told the kicker to put it penalty spot area and when it was put there Jack Charlton shouted Sprakey are you coming for it are you.......................Oh shit. Ray had headed it in. I've got many more stories that Mr Crawford has told me. Lovely man

Yes-I remember seeing that goal on ‘Match of the Day’ (after returning home from Tottenham where Forest
lost 2-1 at the same stage of the competition).

What an experience that away trip was.

Lothar Matthäus (of course) was the Bayern captain here, and in between him and the Ref is goalkeeper Oliver Kahn, Der Titan, who nowadays is Bayern‘s CEO.

At a closed session for the players at the QE in c1990, I remember Psycho dedicating his karaoke song to Adams who was in prison at the time. His choice 'please release me'.

Same do that Parker was trying to chin Keane for repeatedly shouting big nose across the room at him.

What a day then night that was.

That Bayern side was like a pre Galácticos side of Galácticos
