I was at BP when Wilkinson made his Town debut ( memory not what it was )

Cant remember who it was against but I think he scored with pretty much his first touch.

Charlton was Wilko's debut. Got the equaliser in a 1-1 draw

He came on as a sub, if my memory serves me correct?

I was at Goodison that night. Still the most one-sided game I've ever seen where the team on top lost. 20 corners to nil I think and a similar amount of shots on target to 2. Steve Foley had a weak effort in the first half until Wilko's goal. Our defence, particularly Nigel Batch and Chris Nichol were unbeatable that night.

drunk it down all game but I don't think any of the 6000 Town fans cared.

I remember we stopped at Hartshead Moor services on the way home and the Town coach pulled in and got absolutely mobbed.

Everton were THE team of the moment then. Currently top of Division One, they'd won their last 10 games in all competitions, they were the FA Cup holders and went on to win the league title and the European Cup Winners Cup that season.

Did we have to wait 20 minutes after the game to let out, standing in water about 4 inches deep, my kickers were soaked.
Did some of the coaches have their windows smashed in?

It was mad at Hartshead Moor services that night coming home.

This game remains in my memory as one of the best away games for me, for many reasons.

For you young ones the old 2nd division = Championship division, those were the days.
