Probably about the same age as those kids in the photo. 50 years on and Knighton is still remembered as a hero by fans from that era. I wonder if it will be the same in another 50 years, that a player will be remembered by today's young uns as a hero for saving us. 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Whatrejoiceying Posted April 26 Share Posted April 26 The agony and the ecstasy! The week before I watched us being hammered 8-0 by Middlesbrough. But oh how much sweeter that made Knighton’s goal that kept us up! This season, as now an Owls follower rather than an attending supporter, it’s largely felt like one long trip to Ayresome Park following the matchday threads, (for you youngsters that was the old Boro ground) - particularly in those dark Muñoz days. Tomorrow will hopefully bring back that feeling of extreme euphoria albeit not being a season defining result. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Didn’t he play in the Orient game at home with broken toe or is that the previous or following year?… Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
