Tuesday night following (there were no week plus delays in those days), the Turf was sold out - and as many as 10,000 reported locked out, outside.... Unfortunately, we lost 1-2 in extra time. Chelsea went on to win the cup, if my memory is clear.

I'm sure I remember us playing Milwall and getting beat only to score 2 late goals and come back (Gnohere sticks in my mind?) followed by their fans in the CFS ripping out seats and throwing em into the JHL.

Wasn't that in the early noughties when we were 4-0 up at half time.
I can't for the life in me remember the final score.

When I say "another miracle" It was only the previous saturday home game we were 3-1 down to Orient and drew 3-3.
Apart from a few matches where we were 2 goals down and went on to win;I can't think of any others where we were 3 goals down or more and then went onto win.

I remember Hales up front for them, but can't recall the name of the bloke who played along side him up front. They were a handful.

People only need to look at Lincoln, who went out of the league that day. They've flittered in and out of non-league ever since. We've clawed our way back, and are now beating Liverpool et al regularly and have just spent a small fortune on top quality players.

That's a proper Comeback.

Yes, and they also had Colin Powell. Funny the things you remember!

Utterly rubbish for 75 minutes and lucky to be only 2-0 down, and ended up winning 3-2
