That was the cup that was brought in when English teams were banned from Europe after Heysel. Think it was the top 6 in the division played in it.

Remember seeing us play Liverpool at The Dell. Bloody typical. We qualify for Europe then English teams are banned!!

Good read and a truely awful 'competition'.

[ecuk268]

I was there. December '85 IIRC.

 

I think we lost.

[Fan The Flames]

Another case of football authorities robbing us.

I was there, I went with my brother and remember him saying let's go a bit earlier to get a parking space :-/

Top 4 plus 2 cup winners, and 5th and 6th if cup winners had already qualified through the league.

I was also one of the hardy few at the Spurs game ...... Not a memorable night

That was the SCREENSPORT Super Cup.

 

So prestigious they played the final the following season.

There was an article about this in When Saturday Comes about a year ago. Sadly I can't find it online though.

Was around the time when I was a real fanatic (home and away every game), but can't for the life of me remember this one (or the game against Liverpool).

[chocco boxo]

Gone blank on this one. Shame we never made Europe.

[Norm]

I was there. It seems a lifetime ago.

[Chorlton]

I was at the Liverpool game, but that was the only one I went to. I think I remember Keith Legg saying that he went to the away game at Liverpool. That is true madness!
