1988: Blues 1 - 4 Albion
There was a great atmosphere in the away end,
Robert Hopkins scored early on after we had just signed him from the Blues,
Can't remember who scored the 2nd & 3rd goals, but will always remember Gary Robson scoring the 4th in the last minute, ......
Why ?
Me and my mates were all doing knees up mother Brown and someone trod on the back of my shoe and at the end as always with that song everybody surged forward, with one shoe on I anxiously went back up to the top of the terrace to look for my shoe, but with no joy,
So had to catch the train back hopping most of the way
Got taunted for weeks after at the game with spasmodic chants of
"Lost his shoe at Birmingham, Lost his shoe at Birminghammmm" .... with all my mates pointing at me,
Thankfully have lost touch with most of them now
