 v Forest on 6th Sept 1975. 21,023 saw a 0-0 draw.

You would have got very long odds at any bookies back then on them being Division 1 Champions 3 seasons later !

Fighting throughout the whole match in the North Stand and then outside afterwards.  Forest gave as good as they got.

With Ipswich Town's  Paul Cooper also a very decent keeper back then. yet he never won a single England cap.

He, Cooper had a great penalty save record in 1979-81.  I admit I have, yet again, gone off track.

Yes cooper was really small for a keeper, remember on match of the day one Saturday night he saved two penalties in a game, had a technique of purposely leaning to one side to put striker off, another keeper from that era Jimmy Rimmer
