John Duncan must be loving all this on 22:39 - Jan 27 by patrickswell
The frustrating inconsistency of the Duncan era can be summed up in three successive results from his final season in charge of us:
26 December 1989 vs West Ham (H) Won 1-0 30 December 1989 vs Middlesbrough (H) Won 3-0 Back to back home wins against two sides which had been relegated from the top flight the previous season. All of which teed us up for:
1 January 1990 vs Port Vale (A) Lost 5-0 Our heaviest league defeat since August 1985 (vs Liverpool) against a side promoted from Division 3....and we didn't win in the league until March.
I remember going to the West Ham game as a kid even though I had gastric flu and hadn't eaten in days. The chocolate bar Twirl had just come out and I ate one at half time and was promptly sick. Didn't touch another one for year! My waist line wishes I still didn't Hardly had the energy to cheer Stockwell's late winner! Twtd
