It was a weird one. Remember being on the train to the Wimbledon game, everyone was pretty much resigned to the drop, there was no way we were beating them.
This time, people were strangely more optimistic. That was an abomination of an Everton team, and we did our best to mess it all up.
Honestly can’t remember much of the game. Only replays bring it all back. I just sat there for much of it, numb and feeling sick.
Indeed.
I honestly never felt we were going down in the build up to that game. It never even occurred to me.
It is only when it is discussed on here occasionally and I look at the final table that I realise how real the danger was
On the other hand, I never slept a wink with worry in the week leading up to Wimbledon Day.
