I always cite this as the most important Albion game I've ever been to. There have been games which brought us more glory and money but this is the one where we were truly staring into the abyss. Portsmouth away was close by comparison, but this was further down the line with the threat of top flight money being ever further away. Horrible to say a game was important because of money but it's true, especially given our finances at the time. Strange as it may seem in hindsight but I was unusually confident on the day. Somehow and from somewhere inside I just knew (felt) we were going to win.
