Happy anniversery
19 years ago today. Seems like yesterday. 3.07pm, Saturday December 5th, 1992. Darren Pitcher lays the ball off to Colin Walsh, who swings his precious left foot and sends the ball from the edge of the box into the corner of the net in front of a delirious Covered End. More memories.

“That cultured left foot earned Walshie his own little guarantee of immortality as it directed the ball sweet and low into the Portsmouth goal and for a wonderful while it seemed as if Heaven and the Valley were one and the same place”.
Extract from Gary Nelson’s ‘Left Foot Forward’ (page 182).
Wonderful!
And that’s why Nelse has had a book published and I haven’t. Beautifully written.
