That was the first Town game I ever attended as part of my old mans (ultimately successful) project to convert me from Chelsea to Town, pretty sure it was a while after that that Hollins got the push. |

Yeah he was sacked in March 88 a few months after then, Chelsea were shite back then. |

Was’nt he also manager at Stoke when we stuffed them 6-0 and again he was sacked ??. Never forget that day with the Stoke fans doing the conga on the Stratton Bank and Swindon fans joining in with chants of ‘Hollins out’ !. |

On a slight tangent, I recall Town fans singing “Cox Out!” when Arthur had his tenure at Derby County… |
