I remember being at Millmoor when we drew with Leicester in 1968. Millmoor was heaving. We were very unlucky. If I recall Nish missed their first pen but the referee ordered a retake. BBC also missed Downes equaliser.
My elder brother went to Filbert Street for the replay the following Wednesday at which over 41,000 attended, with many people locked out. Those who remember Filbert Street will recall it was the kind of place that looked packed even with 11,000 in so 41,000 doesn’t bear thinking about. We did ourselves proud but succumbed 2-0 after extra time.
