Miah Dennehy Posted July 27, 2018 Report Share Posted July 27, 2018 9 hours ago, Offside said: I think it was Hollowhead who scored. The wind held up the ball, confusing our defence and keeper, and fell kindly to him. At some point in that match Rambo lobbed their keeper but the wind carried the ball over the crossbar. Typical of their bloody jammy luck against us in the 1980s. Strangely enough I was just about to mention this (wonderful) game! The wind did indeed play a part, for Holloways goal at the Tote end of the ground, we had a free kick, the City defence rushed out to play offside but left 3 2or 3 Rovers players onside, and then as you say Johnson appeared to have equalised and somehow as the ball was dipping into the net , the wind lifted it over the bar! Never seen anything like it before or since. Obviously God is Gas Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I remember the game with the sandstorm but can`t remember the score - mind you, didn`t the sand blow in your face pretty much every time we went there, IIRC it was awful for it in THAT cup game too.
