how wrong was i that big ron was the future? i wasn't keen on fergal, wasn't glitz and looked like doom was written in his wrinkles. we had won the fa cup and everything

Went to every match that season

Top Red me

We sold Highes and spent the money on:

Colin Gibson.
Terry Gibson.
Peter Davenport.
Chris Turner.
John Sivebaek.

colin £#%&!ing gibson

the only thing you could say about him was that he wasn't terry gibson

remember that season very well far far too much talk early on about winning the league .

if you'd me then that it would have been another 8 years and a change of manager before it was won I'd have cried all the way to breakdancing

I tried very hard to like Colin Gibson, Davenport and Turner. As a youth you support more blindly.
Sivabaek came with a big reputation and was very exciting at first, it took about a month to realise he was utter shite.
Terry Gibson I hated from the very moment I looked at the sawn off little @#%&!. £#%&!ing disgrace.

Seeing him lift the Euro 92 trophy aloft was a bit of a shock, for sure

he was a wing back before anyone invented wingbacks .

remember the commentators being very confused about him on the big match or whatever its was

terry gibson sells bikes and some disease now doesn't he


or did I dream all that

I rated sievaback, atko bought him after watching him score against Ireland on midweek sports special.

Good job we didn't win it that year tbh.

Why?

Might've been stuck with Big Ron and missed out on Fergie.

Or he might even have gone to a certain place when "King Kenny" cracked up

Now THERE'S something to chill the blood........
