    Was such a blatant dive from Danny Mills for the pen as well

    Reember it well, it was backs to the walls and they hit the underside of the bar. 

    Got a free coach up and started snowing as we arrived, proper smash and grab!

    Vale should have won that game by a country mile, they missed so many chances. Great day out though

    Cracking day, lucky to win though. I think Morts got injured in this game, which kept him out for the rest of the season. He'd been on fire prior to that.

    A momentous day and like many the third time I have seen us promoted there. I remember them battering us for the first hour, with Jordan Cook impressing for them. Even though Wednesday were on an unbelievable run, I just had this feeling we would get promoted that day as it was at Carlisle. We only had 3-4 minutes of pressure, but that culminated in the goal.

    Just knew Wednesday would not get the winner at Colchester. Then read the next day that they had a last minute winner incorrectly ruled offside. It was truly meant to be.

    Was that only "operation" match we actually won?

    What a performance from Gareth Ainsworth, ran us ragged.
