Oh there is a third....he's 30 yard screamer in to the top corner against Birmingham in the FA Cup when Bateson gave the blues the Pop Side. Never quite forgave him for that even though we won 3-0..

I do remember and I stand to be corrected that towards the end of his short career , well short professional career came back to plainmoor playing for Stockport county. I was at the game. Please someone tell me was i dreaming.

Oh to have even a pissed Loram now......

Rumours were that Loram was being pushed out, I cant remember definitely but did he put in a transfer request, then he went to Stockport. That game just wasnt right. I was gutted watching him play for a rival because he was certainly my favorite player around that era. Considering how he had been higher at QPR and come home and he certainly could have played at a higher level. Really gutted when he left us for good and just sad a while later when he had an unsuccessful trial with the club and that was it.
