Well worth a fiver I thought. Only real downside was Darren Eadie getting carried off with what looked like a nasty injury - not the first time we've seen that, obviously, but the poor guy doesn't deserve it - it seems that he really is just cursed. I said when he came out for the 2nd half that I was surprised he was risking it - I remember he was subbed at half-time in the Notman benefit match.
Also I have a suspicion that it was "rigged" to be a draw, which is fair enough given the nature of the occasion - because we were (literally) walking it at half-time to go 4-1 up, then in the second half we let them get back to 4-4 before we took control of the match again (just to show that we could).
Also it was great to see Dave Phillips wearing City colours again - also he still looks completely match fit, got up and down the wing from right-back all match long, and got in some great crosses.
