I know Mariner and Brennan scored in the first half. Jason came on at 29 mins. I know Terry Gibson and Jason scored in the second half. Any other memories etc of this famous bit of Town history welcome too. I think he went to school on the Monday afterwards which must have been chaos! |  | | |  |

He just sort of trotted about on the right wing holding his ribs. I think that was his last appearance for us. |  |

Will never forget than feeling when he scored. Will never forget coming out and "Jesus" repeating "he's only 16!" The main thing I remember from school was assembly where the headteacher, Shepherd, described getting caught up in the moment, standing up and cheering the goal. TWTD |  |

Yes, he made it 3-1 in the 89th minute after coming on as sub for Eric Gates. We'd just lost 3 games in a row & then lost the next 7 games! Crowds had dipped to under 13,000. |  |

There were 13,406 at this game. Judging by reports i've found we sneaked over 13,000 because most of Chantry High were there! |  | |  | Login to get fewer ads

The red minus on the first source indicates Mariner’s last game, not that he was substituted. |  |
