Being a sad stato I noticed that on 9 Dec 1997 we beat Darlington 3-2 via a Golden Goal (remember that daft idea) in the coveted Association Members Cup. As far as I know this is the only time weve scored a Golden Goal. The records show David Eyres scored a brace and Michael Appleton one. Does anybody know who was the Golden Boy?

Lads,
Forgot to mention David Eyres is probably my favourite North End player of all-time. What a player. Just kept getting better with age. Honestly what a player! His skill on the ball. The crosses. the free-kicks. His brace against Blackpool!

We were just talking the other day about who would be in your top 5 of players we have supported in the last 20 years or so and Eyres was in our top 5 along with the likes of Mooney, Ashcroft, Machin, McKenna. Ellis should have been in there but his traitor ways kept him out

IAd have Nugent and Gregan in there. Also thought Chris Lucketti was rock steady in defence. Not sure about Mooney, I just about remember him, but wasnAt there a work-rate issue with him? Also a bit too fond of the source.

Gregan - absolutely agree and in modern times the bet midfielder by far. Nugent is indeed up there but would have liked to have had him 1 more season.
