musingowl Posted June 15, 2012 Author Share Posted June 15, 2012 Didn't Wright miss a chance at some point, kick the hoardings and throw his shirt off (having a laugh of course) or is my mind playing tricks on me? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pulsar Posted June 17, 2012 Share Posted June 17, 2012 (edited) Yes I remember but but it wasn't 10k it was about 7k (-: You are pretty much wrong! I was there, the South was full and i'm sure there were a few in the Kop aswell? Seem to remember 9000+ being the attendance. Edit: This is for the reserve game btw, not the testimonial.
