Finally winning at QPR (twice in fact) and Hillsborough when of course, no paying fans were in attendance.
And being 2 nil up the season after at Loftus Road before conceding a last minute equaliser - was there for that one and the Rangers lads I met up with after said we'd be "up there again (top 6)". Lol.
Great thread this! Some very good suggestions already. I'll add Isaiah Rankin. Firstly, not playing him in case he scored as we couldn't afford his goal bonus. Secondly, loaning him to Grimsby, allowing him to play against us and him scoring in a 6-1 tonking, then cancelling his contract and paying him up immediately after.
I was living in London when that Cup run came around. Surrounded by Chelsea fans in a pub, all wanting a bet and offering a goal start or two...... Sheer bliss! :-D
