So much going on with this Tom Morris pic from 14/12/89: the Admiral tops, the now mainly lost pennants on the wall, the fantastic model (where is it now?) of how the Valley was going to look plus 3 players who'd walk into the side now Mark Reid, Colin Walsh & Colin Pates

    Bar the selling of land at the top of the East, ground didn’t end up looking too dissimilar to that
    That land wasn’t owned by the club until later.

    Mark Reid cost £40k as I recall. 
    What a bargain. 
    Did he ever miss a pen ?
    I guess so, but can’t remember it.

    V Palace in September 1985

    Would have had hat trick of penalties 
    Also missed one vs them in Dec 89 if I recall correctly? Lost 2-1 so cost us a point that day

    Three lefties if my memory serves me right about Pates? In the footballing sense obviously.

    "... plus 3 players who'd walk into the side now Mark Reid, Colin Walsh & Colin Pates"

    Even in their 60s these three would walk into the side now. I doubt there'd be too much running but they'd still be quicker to the ball than our current back line.

    Yes that was our 'home' game against them at Selhurst. Goalie went one way, Reid's shot went the other and hit the post. 

    Remember Noades moaning that their supporters couldn't stand in their usual places in their home ground.
