splendidrush 700 Posted May 9, 2019 Was it also Malky's last game? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
First Wazzock 902 Posted May 9, 2019 I was there too with both of my kids, an awesome day! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
nutty nigel 7,509 Posted May 9, 2019 Yes I'm pretty sure it was Malky's too. But it will be always remembered as Iwan's day. It certainly wasn't a pitch invasion because, as Wardy said, we were invited on. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Drazen Muzinic 1,444 Posted May 10, 2019 (edited) It certainly was Iwan's day. I remember that wooden cutout of him that was being waved around. It was the end of Malky too but it was fine we replaced him with the equally-built Simon Charlton @ CB! And to think people moaned about Russ playing there!

duke63 541 Posted May 10, 2019 The current team would have been proud of that goal. Great passing and movement. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
canarydan23 4,060 Posted May 10, 2019 That was an incredible day. Mingling on the pitch with the Crewe fans and Delia even came out to celebrate from the stands with the fans on the pitch. Iwan scored a penalty as well which he initially missed but the referee let him retake it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
BroadstairsR 2,138 Posted May 10, 2019 My favourite memory of Iwan was at Gillingham when he ran from the centre circle, like Georgie Best beating man after man, before scoring a memorable goal. Championship fixture I believe. I always considered it the main moment that instigated the Gills signing Roberts on as player coach after he left Norwich. They thought that they had another George. It ended badly. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
king canary 7,578 Posted May 10, 2019 That squad had some shocking hair cuts didn't it? Hucks and Svensson were bad but what on earth Jim Brennan was thinking I'll never know. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Woodman 92 Posted May 10, 2019 Who is 2nd left next to Huckerby & the sub next to Ian Henderson far right - is that Paul Dalglish? Henderson still scoring goals at Rochdale. A bit of a tearaway when he was with us as I recall. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
canarydan23 4,060 Posted May 10, 2019 Kevin Cooper next to Hux and Ryan Jarvis next to Hendo. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
