I was at that game . DA was bloody awesome - such power for a youngster . There’s a photo of John Duncan handing Dalian the match ball , begrudgingly. There was bad blood between the two for sure. But he couldn’t keep a talent like that out of the side. Dailian left us in the summer.

Here’s that photo, alongside a few others. The greatest individual performance at Portman Rd, for me Clive.

He stayed for another season after the Middlesbrough game.
A 5 grand signing on fee and a Lancia Montecarlo did the trick. He told me this story in 2010, the last time I spoke with him. He was a character.

Left the Summer after, '89. Brilliant performance that, as good as any individual at Portman Road.
I was lucky to be at that game too, remember it well and one of my fondest Portman Road memories. I think he used to live near Defoe Road, often saw him around Fircroft Rd shops, would always say hello to us school kids.
