18 Years ago today - Were you there?

[Dancin Ninja BHA]

Cannot believe it was so long ago, but 16th Jan 1991 saw us beat Newcastle with Bryan Wade, the little welsh wizard, scoring all four

Marvellous scenes that night, those goals kept on coming!

Shame he didn't maintain his form, but that night he was awesome

God I miss the Goldstone

 

[Mackenzie]

Yes I went, and was it really 18 years ago. He never really got much of a chance did he, despite getting 6 goals in 10 games.

I'm feeling really old now.....time for the Horlicks!

 

[Robot Chicken]

I was there too

 

[Freddie Goodwin.]

I was there too. Strange game in that it seemed fairly even except Wade scored everytime the ball came his way.

 

[Pork Sword]

I remember the piece of police tape breaking and people running on the pitch for the last goal from the North Stand. Lovely stuff.

 

[Seagull over NZ]

I was there. From memory despite scoring 4 I distinctly remember us being completely outplayed. Had Keegan just got there as manager a month or so prior to that game??

 

[KNC]

Jeeeeeeeeeeeeeezzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz, 18 years!!!!!!!!!!!

 

[Gwylan]

I was there.

Got back home and discovered that the US had started shelling Iraq....something's don't change.

 

[Rabeen]

I was there - We were being out played, went 2-1 down, I think..... then Wade stepped up and scored another 3. Loads of Toon in the south East corner. Evening game, think they played in Yellow, maybe even yellow and green? Mick Quinn was incredibly fat.

 

[Big G]

Indeed i was there.......such a let down he never really managed to progress from that game. And 18 years seems to sound so long ago....!

 

[Lady Whistledown]

I managed to miss it due to football training, or something like that.

Couldn't believe my luck when I got a phone call telling me what a game it was.

 

[Half Man Half Biscuit]

I ran on the pitch when he scored his fourth and ripped my bestest jeans in the process.

no jim smith was in charge...keegan came the next season...i was there and we somehow won 4-2 they outplayed us for a lot of the game..they had micky quinn up front and maybe also the lardy jock clown

 

[Stat Brother]

18 blooming years, ago, blimey.

My memory of that night, although somewhat harsh as it was mid week in Jan, is the 'Toon Army'.
I believe they would have been out number by the Swiss Guard.

 

[Johnny Crumplin Football]

Yep I was there. Whatever happened to Bryan Wade? It was like he was there one minute and gone the next. I am sure I remember him scoring against Wolves in 3-2 win at Molineux in the previous? game. Codner got sent off? and Mark Barham lashed the winner in off the post to spark pandemonium in the Albion end. Awesome memories. Think Steve Bull might have got both of Wolves goals that day too

 

[Smythe]

yeah im surei remember Wade scoring a couple in a 3-2 or i thought it was a 4-2 win over Wolves. Now i might be totally wrong here but wasnt that the same night the scousers beat the scum 9-0!!!!!

 

[MORTY]

18 years ago?? God makes me feel old! Was only 13 or so but have vague memories. Used to love the atmosphere in the North Stand

 

[supaseagull]

Was it really 18 years? It was the only home game I missed in that season and had a row with my then girlfriend because I hadn't gone...

I wonder what ever happened to Bryan Wade?

 

[pasty]

Yep. And to be honest, with all the upheaval and struggles the club has been through since then, it seems more than 18 years ago to me. Almost another World.

 

[bristolseagull]

f***ing hell, 18 years ago


yep, remember it reasonably well, legendry game that.....
