The early 80's the football was good, we were successful and I went home and away and had a lot of good days out 'oop North'.
Do you remember Derby in the league cup? 2 leg affair 0-0 home, then 0-0 away, extra time still 0-0 went to penalties Gordon Hill (I think!) got the winner. Train on the way back stopped in the middle of nowhere for ages and finally got back to London at about 1.45. Ended up walking back to Streatham. Happy days.....

I unfortunately went up on the wrong night for that match, went up on a Tuesday with my mate got to the ground and no activity, went to the pub and found out that the match was on the Wednesday.
Also remember a long running saga with Forest in the cup, plus losing at Huddersfield and Doncaster but winning at York and then nicking their best player, a certain Jonny Byrne.
