Older!!!!!!!!!!!With todays weather in mind do the older ones on here remember us playing Blackburn Rovers on a snow covered HR pitch, early December 1995 I’m sure they were reigning league champions at the time but we thumped them 5-0, Blackburn had a lot of the the star names of the day Alan Shearer, Colin Hendry, Chris Sutton, Tim Flowers, Tim Sherwood and they blamed the use of an orange ball used on the snow covered pitch, which in those times was often used when snowing. I’m sure they made an official complaint and were laughed at all round the country.
Another snowy day we played Sheffield United at home who were leading 2-0 and a massive blizzard occurred and you couldn’t see the players, the game got abandoned and we won the replayed game at the back end of the season 2-0 to survive another relegation battle by the skin of our teeth.
I am sure i am in a minority but I thought he was quite good.Was definitely a good day for us. Those highlights make Ally Pickering look like a top player!
Thought he was supposed to be coming in at the same time as Richard ShawI’m sure Coleman was to be part of a mega double signing neither happened can’t remember who the other one was.
He had an absolutely stunning missus.I am sure i am in a minority but I thought he was quite good.

I’m sure i remember a double singning that never happened that included Lee Bowyer.I’m sure Coleman was to be part of a mega double signing neither happened can’t remember who the other one was.
I was thinking Bowyer not sure if it was with Coleman though.I’m sure i remember a double singning that never happened that included Lee Bowyer.
Not sure if it was this tho
Sensational player, a natural.Just watched that tv clip, it shows us all what a great player Peter Ndlovu was, the fact managers of the day and there were a few couldn’t build a top team round him beggars belief.

Just looked it up and it was Whyte's only game for us. Statistically he must have the best record ever for us.
was he Asa's brother ? I can only remember Mick HarfordMick Hartford
I’ve got a feeling the double signing might have been Gareth Southgate & Richard Shaw from Palace, the latter obviously making the move eventually.Lee Bowyer and Richard Rufus from Charlton?
Steve Murcott also had a pretty good recordwas he Asa's brother ? I can only remember Mick Harford
I‘m randomly friends with him on FB & he doesn‘t seem the sharpest tool in the box
One double signing I recall which didn't happen was Neil Lennon and Muzzy Izzet both from Crewe, somehow they both ended up at Leicester.

Could well be mate, it’s a long time ago and my memory isn’t great nowadays, it sometimes plays tricks on me ‘where by, I remember something fully and in fine detail, then it comes out that the only thing I can recall correctly, is being there.Shaw came mid season, after we failed to sign Coleman first. Don't ever reall us being linked with Southgate.
The Bowyer interest was in the Summer break when we signed McAllister. Am positive we tried to sign Richard Rufus at the same time.

Bloke I work with is mates with him. Apparently his brother was better than him but he fucked his ankle or something. Both thick as two short planks by all accountsI am sure i am in a minority but I thought he was quite good.
He isn't. See aboveI‘m randomly friends with him on FB & he doesn‘t seem the sharpest tool in the box

Me & my brother traveled to Cov with 5 Norwich supporting mates, we went Cov side of Kop they went the other, then all met up at the end to get home.Sensational player, a natural.
I remember coming back from a match at Spurs, and hearing some of their fans calling him Pele. They weren't being ironic.Me & my brother traveled to Cov with 5 Norwich supporting mates, we went Cov side of Kop they went the other, then all met up at the end to get home.
We won 2 v 1 and they were all drooling over Peter Undlovu all the way home, he scored the winner from 25 yards after dropping his shoulder and sending 2 defenders the wrong way.
Mind you we we’re 30 steps up the Kop and he sent us all the wrong way.

We had a decent team for a few year apart from consistently having Shaw and Williams at CB.You couldn’t make it up we get linked with Coleman, who was a bloody good player, Southgate who became an England regular, I’m sure we were, Rufus another decent player but end up with Richard Shaw ffs ! For ten bloody years. Good servant but ten years ?
You’re absolutely correctBlimey he didn’t half send you the wrong way - because he never even scored in a 2-1 win against Norwich - Sean Flynn & Mick Quinn did
You‘re on about the 1-1 draw cuz I remember that goal too…early goal of the season contender on MOTD
