    No, I was away from home at the time, but the reports I got were exactly as you say. I know statistics are not that important, but I believe in that game we had 14 shots to their 6, 12 corners to their 5, and they committed 24 fouls! Even the Owls captain was quoted as saying “We were only in the game for about 15 minutes in the first half”. Unfortunately, the one statistic that does matter, went in their favour.
    Like you, I was very, very disappointed at the time (but at least they lost in the semi). Good old Derek Dougan!
