Hi peeps, I bought a programme at a carboot this morning for Silletts testimonial,however it is not dated.Tried googling it but found no info.Anybody know the score date it was held etc?? Thanks in advance.
it was against Spurs, don't remember Oggy playing up front but I do remember him trying to take it all the way down the pitch and score. Seem to remember they kept trying to cross the ball in for Houchen to do a diving header. Details are very hazy but there's was a ton of goals, ended up 8-7 or something like that and a pitch invasion after with big John signing a ton of autographs.
I would guess it must have been pre-92 as I moved away then and probably wouldn't have come back for a game like this!
You should text CWR the next time he's on and ask him.
i remember that game was end of the 91/92 season i think?
which testimonial was it when we played villa in the mid 90s? lost 2-1 if i remember and lampety absoloutely tore us apart! Brian Lara walked round the pitch at half time if i rermember.
Thanks guy's. Thought it was odd that the programme was undated. Only paid 5p for it and its fetching over a fiver on Ebay!! Maybe ill contact David Dickinson n get a part on one of them Auction programmes
Ill contact Jim Brown, ive been told he's our club historian??
