On This Day 1983

[MOZZER2]

17 and went on the train with my usual mates - one used to post on here as Dr pop but has sadly passed - can't believe 41 years has passed -scary - that game was intense all day long - I'm sure they showed it on match of the day for some reason ??

I went to every home and away including cup games that year except for Bradford away (if I'm thinking of the right game) we lost 4-0 or 4-1 and I'm sure Phil Dwyer ended up in goal - the reason I missed it was because it was moved to an afternoon in midweek because the floodlights weren't working and I had an exam I couldn't get out of

Travelling with the city was dodgy in those days and rarely an away game went passed without incident of some sort

the chesterfield away game one of the last games of the season was the pick of the bunch for me that year .won 1 nil to secure promotion on the pitch after the game with dave bennett on our shoulders . great times

We didn’t go up that day, this is the game where promotion was secured.



The game at Bradford was played on a weekday afternoon, we lost 4-2 and both Phil Dwyer and London Jones had a go in goals after Andy Dibble was injured.
