That would imply that Peters was a pretty bad judge of character, and happy having loan players Todd and Pilkington turning upto training with their suitcases because they had been thrown out of their hotel, because the hotel hadn't been paid for yonks !
Yep, one defeat in 15 derbies I think, a 1-0 at Torquay on NYD when Justin Fashanu scored. The 2-0 home win then 3-0 away win at Shilton’s Argyle are among my best City supporting times ever.
During the clusterfkcu start to 91/92 & a few hidings(due to TC leaving at pre season & hence the players not being properly fit,plus poor signings ) The game which started the revival was the mid week Torquay game in September,they were all over us for 90 mins but could not score,cue 90th min we get a corner somehow,it’s mis hit at low level & somehow goes in,just the luck we needed.We were 5th in the table by the end of October..Bally’s first bit of magic for a derby(albeit luck,which is always needed at times)..Loved those days.
Tom Kelly with the goal IIRC. Wasn’t that the game after Bally signed 10 players after a 6-1 defeat at Shrewsbury (my only trip to the old Gay Meadow) which might have been our second six goal defeat that season and it was only September.
Yep..Jeeze that game at Gay Meadow,iirc we were 4-1 down in the 1st half.I remember saying it cannot get much worse,then we had a couple of players sent off plus shipped in another couple in the 2nd half.

That 3-0 away win was something else, I still watch the YouTube clip to bring back the memories
