This was the last time we played at Roker Park and the last time former Hornets goalkeeping legend Tony Coton would play against us. Less than a month later he broke his leg in six places in a game for Sunderland against Southampton which led to his retirement from playing.

BSAD: The game was pretty boring, not much happening. They scored quite early to really kill the tie stone dead, and the rest of the match was playing out for time, and trying to keep the score down to a reasonable level.
