Were winning the shootout including Pressman with the best penalty I have ever seen, then conspired to lose with Waddle and Bart-Williams amongst those who missed. We also won one there in 2000 after a dire 0-0. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

owler66 Posted August 17, 2018 Share Posted August 17, 2018 If my memory serves me right we went out in the 4th round losing to Everton 3-1 at Hillsborough, Tynan scoring a great goal for Wednesday and a certain Mick Lyons getting one of the Everton goals, over 30,000 in great atmosphere 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes I think you're right aswell.....36000 for a league cup 4th round game and Wedneday were in the third division , we would be struggling aswell at the start of that season so that is an unbelievable crowd , just shows you what the cup meant back then though !

casbahowl Posted August 17, 2018 Share Posted August 17, 2018 That was the night that cemented it for me, pointed me down the path of righteousness! vastly outnumbered but Wednesdayites refused to give an inch. Just an awe struck 15 year old who wagged school with 6 mates, rolled up Levi’s and silver sprayed Doc Martens, never known comeraderie like it, unmoveable! Then Sir Roger , in front of the delirious few delivered a pose that Willem Defoe copied years later! The original “platoon”! I was there ...... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's here he's there he's every f****n where Rodger wylde, Rodger wylde ! Was at the game. Wolves were in the 2nd division that season but went back up under Sammy Cheung. We were on their South Bank and it was getting very naughty so left five minutes before the end to avoid trouble and missed the winner! My first ever away game where we won too! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hughdowd Posted August 17, 2018 Share Posted August 17, 2018 I was there too..when wylde scored..we honestly thought..oh s##t...cos of the wolves fans around us...but we just went beserk in front of them. Cue bedlam.... ...great times tho !!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
legendaryswan Posted August 17, 2018 Share Posted August 17, 2018 We got off to a poor start that season,we lost at portvale on the saturday before the wolves match,we were absolutely dire. Wylde and Potts were the rare becons of hope,we loaned in Bobby Hope and recrited the brilliant Paul Bradshaw from burnley,we looked nailed on to dip down at wolves but bust the odds on a superb night for all that travelled.Potts got the first and oscar sealed it,hammered Watford next round,think it was Ashursts first full season,memorable night as we went there with little or no expectations,Wyldes winner was pure class. There was a fair bit of afters once we all turned out,proud to say our boys did the biz off the field as well 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
