No - it's more recent than that one.

Sorry - but that's simply not a valid excuse.

You should be immersing yourself in old copies of the Robins Review at every opportunity.....

Correct.

So, "in meetings" or busy thumbing through 1996/97 season issues of the Robins Review....?

I have very few 90's programmes and they are all in my garage which is 30 miles away.

But to complete the set, our first goal at Twerton Park was scored by the legend that is Stan Allen and the last by none other than Michael Twiss!

Stan Allan's freak strike from inside his own half, as I recall?

That's the one - Johnn Rogers turns round to curse Stan Allen for over hitting the through ball only for it to sail into the net!
