yep, remember it well - 1-1 draw.

When he came on as sub we all sang there's only one jonnie salad and it became his nickname with the players after that.

When he got in the England team on a Q&A what's your nickname - jonnie salad - classic

Yes, I was there Johng and remember it well. Very funny.

Although we didn't go up that year it was one hell of a season. Goals flying in all over the place. On our day we used to completely destroy opponents.

Also played quite a few games with 4 future England internationals starting: Wright, Gray, Thomas and Salako. Not many 2nd tier clubs can boast that.

No, it was Leeds when he suffered the injury thinking about it....long day!

Well you were kind of right to begin with. He injured his knee on international duty colliding with a post just before the horrific injury against Leeds. I always felt that that knock for England played a part in his knee buckling like that by weakening it.

It was a horrendous looking injury and one of those that even the least squeamish can stand watching. It happened right in front of me as I stood in the Holmesdale, but it wasn't until I saw it on Saint and Greavsie the following Saturday that I saw the full extent of what happened.

Coppell actually made a complaint that they aired it, as our team were having pre match meal watching the programme and Steve felt it totally put the players off their stride.
