Comebacks

[michaelSTFC]

Liverpool's recent exploits has got me wondering how many great comebacks the Rebels have been involved in.

 

Three which spring to mind:-

 

1. Slough 3-3 Yeading. A few years ago at Wexham Park, we were 0-3 down with ten minutes left before we somehow pulled it back, the equaliser (scorer forgotten) coming deep in injury time.

 

2. Not technically a three goal comeback, but Slough 3-3 Reading in the FA Cup all those years ago (90-91?), Allan Pluckrose and Paul McKinnon both scoring in the final minute to level it at the death.

 

3. Not sure of the accuracy of this, but I remember a Conference game being talked about, years ago. Stafford 3-4 Slough? A young Stan Collymore scored a hattrick for the home side before the Rebels somehow scored four times to snatch the points?

Hardly the world's greatest, but our comeback from 2-0 with 20 minutes to go at home to Yeading earlier this season was pretty good.

 

Also, at home to Sutton united a few years ago, but this time a Rebels throw-away at Sutton came from 4-1 down at half-time (i think) to draw 4-4.

What about St Albans in the 1998-9 season? Cannot remember exact details but we were 2 or 3 down with 20 minutes left and salvaged a draw. I think this was under Hardyman

Yeovil game away 3-1 down at half time Jimmy Browm comes on to score and help us to a 4-3 win this was at a time when Jimmy could'nt hit a barn door but went on to be a superb striker for the REBELS.

Can't remember the date nor the team...

 

But 3 - 1 down to wycombe ...crowd approx 1600 i beleive....came back to win 4 - 3 ...was the greatest come back of all time for a Slough side..

 

I think Rowan doods scored the winner in this league match...

 

amazing...turn around...

[what are you on about?

jimmy brown was a proven top striker for many years with wokingham town( when they were in top flight non league football)/quote]

Optimistic if you read my reply you will see I said what a superb striker he was for the REBELS but it took him a while to get going.

My fave was a game away to Dag& Redbridge in the conference, freezing cold Tuesday night we went from 3-0 down to draw 4-4 and could have nicked it in injury time- and best of all a couple of old slappers flashed us as we drove through London- i don't know if Dave knew where to look!

Got to be the Stafford game.

The first ever football match for my two lads.

The local supporters were fabulous, especially remember three old gentlemen behind us in the stand.

3-0 down at half time but an incredible 4 goals in the 2nd half.

Hooked the lads for ever!

Oh my god, i was at the Dagenham game, and the Reading one, and Stafford and Yeading...i feel like an old git like Chris!

Reading was still the best ever comeback tho' - two goals in extra time was truely fantastic and led to wild pitch invasion celebrations!
