One of many memorable away performances that season.
The 4-3 win at Newcastle two months previous was a case in point.
GAme at Ewood (so different then) was such an important game as we were fighting for a playoff place and this game was sandwiched between two other important away games - Swindon and Pompey (which we also won both ending 2-1).
Goalless first half.
Rob Lee and Carl Leaburn scored in quick succession around the hour mark sending about 300 addicks delerious.
Few of us were there that day? Seem to recall it was a memorable day for AFKA.
As for the season - so near yet so far.
The 2-0 win v Fester........ follwowed by two 1-0 nils v Tranmere and Gasmen.
Gutted.

Possibly my favourite ever away game, sure i've told this on here before. About 15 of us got the coach up from Bexleyheath, one of ours worked early mornings as a baker and turned up for the coach with a sackload of donuts. By the Dartford tunnel the coach was a wreck with jam and sugar absolutely everywhere.
Few of us made it through the gap in the gate onto the pitch after the first goal.
On the way back as we got off the coach at the services, Barry Fry was walking in front of us, so we wrestled him to the floor, chanting 'you fat b*stard' and duffing him up. He loved every minute of it, top fella.
One of the top 5 enjoyable away games. We didn't have a pot to piss in and they'd spent bundles and there we were rubbing their noses in it.
When we scored the 2nd (Leaburn?), you'd have thought there was thousands there not 4/500.
Great days.
Ha ha ha. I remember that AFKA....quality day out. That was when Stop Shouting ran onto the pitch. Do you remember the bloke with the donoughts, he had the smelliest feet ever!! (Dannatt)
Palace Jim, thats a name from the past. i heard a rumour that his bed was propped up off the floor by using Porno Mags as legs. ha ha
Dan, thats because he never wore socks! Nice cakes tho!
