Some controversy when George Holley shoulder-charged the keeper, clutching the ball, over the goal-line. A goal was given (and credited to George) - it seems the controversy was more over who was recorded as scoring the goal than whether it was a foul or not.
This is still our best-ever away win over Arsenal. Our next away game that season was even better - a thumping and record-breaking 9-1 victory over the forces of darkness.
