Great Comebacks
« on: November 26, 2014, 04:15:29 PM »

I'm suprised this hasn't been done yet, although I can remember in previous incarnation if a similar thread.

Great Alty comebacks. 

I'll start with the obvious Gateshead at home. Two injury time goals including a late penalty on a Tuesday night to come back from 2-0 down.

I always thought Kettering away in 2010 didn't get enough credit. Coming from behind 3 times to get an away point.

I remember coming back from 2-0 down against Northwich in the Bob Lord Trophy in the mid-90's and winning 3-2. Cracking game!

The first leg of the play-off semifinal against Brackley. Shame about the second leg.

March 1979: losing 4-1 at home to a superb Mossley side with about 20 minutes to go.....and then winning 5-4.

I'll let someone else recount the events of that unforgettable Monday evening, which will inevitably mention Stan Allan's pivotal contribution....

The famous pitch invasion of Bradford, that was when we knew we'd get in the play-offs.

Is the second one the 1st game back in the Unibond 2000/01 season? Mark Ward with a last minute penalty at Chequers End. Always remember it as until Workington last season was the last game I attended with my dad.

Bradford PA away. The season we went up in the playoffs. 1 down, not playing well then a val owen screamer and a late rod thornley winner for a 2-1 win. Some proper players in that team.

Yes this was most spectacular. I think there were only 12 minutes to go and we were 4-1 down. Stan Allan and Eamonn O'Keeffe started fighting and both were sent off. Eamonn was Mosssley's star player and went on to play for Everton and the Republic of Ireland. I think we scored 3 stoppage time including 2 identical Johnny King near post headers off corners.
Many Alty fans had cleared off to the pub at 4-1 as soon as the gates opened.
We lost the second leg 5-0!!!!

Also a 4-3 FA Cup victory against Scouseport after being 3-0 down in the late 1970's

Jeff Johnson's last minute winner at the Golf Road End.

Joyous.

Droylsden followed.....and then our first visit to Tottenham Hotspur.
