They didn’t have much chance to see the coast so they all came out on mass, thinking it would be a lovely experience, but the match was in winter so they were all gutted. They were bored of the mountainous Hawthorns being the highest football ground in all four Divisions.
That is an impressive fact. I think the match I am referring to may have been our April '82 3-1 win over them but I do take your point. I vividly remember thinking 'How nice it is to see so many diverse supporters in the North Bank all of a sudden. Oh, hang on...' And then it all kicked off.
 
I remember we drew them in 86/87 in the 3rd rd. Albion were a struggling division 2 side and we were riding high in the old 4th
Sean McCarthy scored a last minute winner to give us a 3-2 win down the Vetch.
