Remember this game well. Middlesboro 4-0, I hung around the players tunnel as a nipper when they came off for warm-ups and got nearly everybody to sign my programme. They had Pallister and Colin Cooper at CB so no mugs and Dalian just ripped them apart that day.
Such a frustrating time. We were capable of blitzing anybody in that pre 92 promotion campaign but just so inconsistent. We destroyed both Boro and Bradford 4-0 at home that season and they both finished in the top 3*. In fact, we done the double over Bradford, ruining their promotion chances on the last day.
We did have several flair players and I do look back on Duncan's time with a fair bit of fondness though it is a maligned era. Atkinson was different level though, gutted when he left, we were totally stitched up over that fee.
