Great days indeed. I was fortunate enough to start watching Alty during Sanders' first full season - the memorable Trophy run to the semis, a penalty miss away from Wembley, winning the Trophy the following season, then it all snowballed as we had great FA Cup runs including trips to Spurs & Liverpool, 2 league titles and the era rounded off with another (losing) trip to Wembley. As I remember it, Tony Sanders was never particularly rated by the fans as any great tactician or coach but he assembled one hell of a team for that level of football, full of strong colourful characters - maybe that's why he's not remembered so much - overshadowed by the team he built. Didn't he go back to being a joiner after leaving Alty?
