Did them a lot of good. Finished last season 17th in League 2

 

[Behind Enemy Lines]

Just what we need after another season of play-off hurt. Thanks for that!

Went to the semis and final. Can't believe despite finishing 6th with 70pts we had a negative gd of 6.

I hate that little ginger cockwomble. I had reoccurring nightmares about gingers for years after that game.

 

[greyseagull]

I was there, and I cried (I was 10 years old though)

We ruined that day by turning up wearing Chewitt wrappers. The writing was on the wall as soon as they entered the pitch. No wonder Wendy cried.

I still believe to this day we had too many aging players who knew they were out of a job if we won that day, I'm probably wrong but that's how it felt at the time, we really didn't turn up on the day, I know Wilkins was visibly distraught after the game but I can't recall anyone else being upset.

Notts County only sold about 10k tickets too, totally TIN POT

My abiding memories are of the semis against Millwall. Will never forget trying to get out of the den accompanied by mounted police. Wembley was a let down.

I can still here the bangs at the back of our end, where Millwall were trying to get IN, didn't seem to bother them that there were thousands of us in there.

That walk down Cold Blow Lane did seem like a long one when all you could here were chants of Miiiillllwaaaallll at the other end

Unless I've missed a result somewhere, the 4-1 win over Millwall that season remains the only home play-off match we've ever won.

Yes it is, also one of only 3 play off games we've ever won, Swindon away and Bristol City at the millennium being the others iirc

And I seem to remember being narrowly missed by a brick thrown into the terraces from outside!

Throwing up on the side of the pitch didn't seem to do him much harm, unfortunately.

 

[Silk]

Well, we certainly went Home Bitter.

I remember Wilkins's tearful post-match interview.

"I just can't believe we lost 3-0"
"It was 3-1 Dean. You scored"
"Oh yeah"

 

[Curious Orange]

Clive Walker hit the woodwork, then County get a corner despite the ball clearly being put out of play by their own man... you know what happened next...
