Yeah I was there. Still remember the big flag they had "Darlo Vagabonds welcome Swindle Town" Got home at 4.AM had to be in for work at 6. I reckon there were a shade under 100 of us.

Yes. A workmate and I drove up. It was one of those bad away game nights (yes folks, they did happen pre-Power) - Gill's challenge on Bennett was a shocker, Town got a good beating and to top it all we got some grief from some Darlo fans after the game.

To stuff them in the second leg made up for it though.

Ah, the days of enthusiasm and, on this occasion, Federation ale.

Remember it well 576 miles round trip for a 3 - 0 beating and probably the worst attempt at a tackle I have ever seen. Still the 2nd leg made up for it and Gill got some well deserved abuse.
