Just the striker to get.

Clue: while the others all played for us after their time at Luton, the striker had already left us.

Trevor Aylott? I confess that I had to Google that.

Chelsea 2 - 0 Middlesbrough League Cup Final March 1998.  

Brief highlights.

Arsenal 0-5 Chelsea, League Cup 1998  

Arsene Wenger opted to rest some of his biggest names for this League Cup tie in November 1998, a decision that backfired spectacularly.

It was also Chelsea's first victory at Highbury in their last ten attempts. Clive Tyldesley watched the action unfold.

That was after the death of Peter Houseman  , almost like a testimonial for him , a decent crowd that night after such a sad and tragic death.

Wish there was footage of that game. Sounded epic.

Sure that this has been posted before. A great comeback and then good old Dougie.

Remember the game well, but couldn't go. I remember Walker getting a great write-up, although he isn't listed in the programme team.

Hearing the news about Houseman was such a shock. His son posted on here a few years back - seemed a really nice guy.
