Great stuff, I loved Speedie. He had more enthusiasm and fighting spirit than any of the current lot and only Dack could match him for skill. I would have hated to play against him. You would have had a tough 90 minutes.

Speeeeeeedie

That's the one, cheers!

What a great season he had for us in 91/92, there was no doubting his ability or commitment.

i was at that game,fantastic day,giving shilton some serious stick in the 2nd half and as i can recall we were kept in for ages after the game,whilst the area was cleared of the plymouth menace,that loss sent them down and they were far from happy,did`nt get home until midnight,even with my maniac driving mate giving his sierra sapphire some serious pedal wear,one regret about the kenny era is he did`nt give speedie the chance to play in the premier league,he would have been electric with shearer,sure he could have offered soton a bit more cash instead of giving speedie as part of the deal

If you were picking a team on fighting spirit and will to win alone he'd be one of the first names on the list - along with Kevin Moran out of that team.

Saw this on Twitter...keeping masterclass from Darren Collier...David Mail scores...with a twist

 

 

[Herbie6590]

Here’s another...sloppy defending, lack of concentration...plus ça change...?

 

[Herbie6590]

Lee Richardson masterclass....

 

 

[Mattyblue]

Some proper east Lancs vowels!

[Herbie6590]

Early signs of why Jason Wilcox would prove to be so invaluable & why Darren Collier never made it...

 

 

[Herbie6590]

More impressive Wilcox action & a Starbuck to go...

 

[simongarnerisgod]

thanks for putting those up,fond memories of my teenage years?

[Amo]

Yeah, kudos to @Herbie6590 for uploading these blasts from the past. Venky's can steal our future but they can never take our glory days!

The day things changed....

Bristol City in August 1990

 

[Tyrone Shoelaces]

Wingers Eh, who needs 'em ?

[Herbie6590]

Oldham v Rovers 1990

 

[Herbie6590]

Rovers v Brighton 1990

 

[Mattyblue]

Mid 80s until about 1996, every away kit was a cracker (just what were the two recurring themes?! ?)

Portsmouth v Rovers 1990   “Lenny Rose” ?

 

[Tyrone Shoelaces]

Lenny Johnrose doing well for us there. The goal at Oldham was a brave effort.

[Herbie6590]

Away to Bristol Rovers, another Johnrose goal, Nicky Reid the goalscoring machine and a terrible refereeing decision denies Bristol a penalty...

 

[simongarnerisgod]

lol,what a terrible decision?,loving this,though the season does`nt get any better

I’m sure the “Lenny Rose” commentator was a young Alan Green?

With all this talk of goalkeepers I never realised until these clips what a liability Darren Collier was!

was a bit of a desperate time tbh,after 3 play off failures mackays squad needed a rebuild,we had to do without garner and sellers for most of the season as well,i think bobby mimms comes in soon to replace collier,who was never up to the job

American football tackle ! Nicky Reid doing what our central midfield can't do - getting beyond the strikers.
