John,
I think it was West Brom in the Cup, 1974, Big crowd too. They were Division 2 at the time.
We drew 0-0 and they beat us in the replay at the Hawthorns 1-0.
I think it might have been our first Sunday fixture, Lords Day Observance Act and all, and probably because of the Miners Strike as you say.

I wrote it down on a piece of paper which I must have thrown away, I would be grateful if you could let me know what it is again, I m hoping to use it once again in the near future. I m pleased to learn that you consider my article enjoyable.
