Not quite sure why he never really made it, but he was a firm fans favourite. Tony Nicholas - in the days when you were allowed to ‘jostle’ their keeper, that is what he always did in the (usually) forlorn hope that the goalie would drop the ball! Well, it finally happened ... once ... and, you guessed it, Tony missed the open goal!

November 5, 20196 yr Thursday, 5th Nov 1998 We won 1-0 in Copenhagen. Brian Laudrup's first and last goal for us. In his last game for us too. I thought he would have been an outstanding player for us. Having seen him play so brilliantly for Rangers,, He never settled or seemed comfortable with us, don't remember why !
