That definitely deserves a mention. Wasn't it the game where a large proportion of the crowd arrived up half an hour late; after hearing Sligo were winning on the radio people streamed up to the ground out of pubs, chippers, arcades etc ?Quote:

definitely a european result that deserves it's place on the list though!
Tommy, Tavria beat Shels 2-1 on aggregate in 92. Anyway Tavria bribed their way to the title the year before.Quote:

Shels did beat Karpaty Lvov of the Ukraine 3-2 on aggregate 0-1 & 3-1 in 93 - brilliant performance mentioned by me above.
