Instead, under Ron Saunders’s regime of non-stop running and 100 per cent work-rate, we had to content ourselves with the occasional misdirected bicycle kick from the luckless Bone.Worse still, a sequence of embarrassing incidents made us look even more like hicks from the sticks: the crossbar collapsed on our goalkeeper, a League Cup semi-final was abandoned when fog descended with only five minutes left as we led 1-0.
