25 Years of match memories

[RoyalCountyJack]

Was it Curtis Davies who scored 2 for them, including the gift wrapped penalty?

Craig Davies scored the winner - Tate gave away the earlier penalty bringing down Davies but can't remember if he then took it. Have a feeling he did.....We were tamping on the way home as it was a game we should have got at least a draw from..

PS - The reason I know it was Craig Davies was because one of our mob worse for drink kept saying "Craaaaiiiiig Davies - Proper Bo !" everytime he was on the ball. Got a bit tiresome after 90 minutes...

Bristol City in league 1 we won 7 -1 at the Liberty having only been there a few weeks, I can’t remember who their manager was but he sat in the dug out after the game with his head in his hands for ages. Kevin Mcloed scored a hat trick and that was basically the end of him, Leon Britton also scored, i think i have seen every goal he ever scored for us live.

They're manager at that game was ex defender Bryan Tinnion. I remember seeing him slumped and totally lost in the away dugout after the game. This was after the Bristol fans had left and players off the pitch!

Remember Kev doing the "swimaway" nearly full length of the East.
Remember the wurzels weren't impressed.
Was it 1-0 to us at half time? Or may have been 1-1
My memory is shot nowadays.
Bits of memories from every part of life.

Drawing 0-0 with Bristol City on a Friday night to avoid going 1st Division to 4th in successive seasons.

Back in the 80s I know, but was up there with the despair of that Exeter game for me.

Jimmy Rimmer & Paul Price basically playing the last 10 mins just passing the ball back and forth to each other. At least that's how my 11 year old self remembers it!

Good memory that if so lol

Good memory that if so lol

Could be wrong but something sticks in my mind.

Picture in my head of most of the team celebrating by the corner of the South/West stands and having to charge back when the goal was disallowed and Bristol had the ball.
