Re: Piers Morgan - This Morning

i remember Colin Waldron scoring a last minute equaliser that was disallowed at Blackpool in the FA Cup.

Re: Were you here...?

I was at Crewe and remember their fans dancing on the pitch at the end laughing at us as they, like us, thought we were going down.

I thought we'd win the last game but couldn't see the other two slipping up. It was an awful feeling knowing it was out of our hands.

I think 1972/73 because there were no worries about coming straight back down and we had so many players approaching the peak of their careers.

We spent a pittance on Peter Noble and finished sixth in the top flight the following season.
