    we beat Forest 2-1 at home in the Full Members Cup. Only 6692 were there. Were you one of them?

    What do you remember of the game if anything?

    Standing on the Ponty End, Brendan O'Connell came over and swore at the Barnsley fans after scoring a goal.

    What do you mean "only". That was a terrific attendance for the full members cup. Way above the average I would have thought.

    I meant it in the sense that it's 26 years on and the chances of anyone of that number (which includes Forest fans):

    a) having been at the match
    b) seen my post

    and

    c) can remember the match

    are quite slim.

    Peace

    Ah, the Zenith Data Systems cup. Freezing night, not a bad game, Crossley in goal for Forest. Pitch covered in sand. I think we scored straight after Chettle equalised. Full strength Forest side inc Walker and Pearce who'd been at Italia 90. Was it Rammell who got our first?

    I went to an earlier round at West Brom where we won 5-3, Banks scored a hat-trick and the game was interrupted by a fox on the pitch.

    I was there, on a 'school neet' too. Think we got Villa at home in next round and lost one - nil, I think? Couple of years later, I discovered real ale and my memory's not been what it was since... I think.
