Who would have thought that the club would have been dragged under and replaced by Cousins' cuckoos before reaching it's tenth birthday - or indeed how many of the fans that went that day would desert the club as soon as the going got tough.

What a day that was, Fatmore's only decent contribution in his short stay, a fun atmosphere on both the coach up and in the stand, and the start of two great seasons.

Out of interest, what was the away support in that crowd of 4,300+?
