Re: Burton Albion
El MayorThrillhouseRomanWaggehWe beat them in the FA Cup when I think both were still in the Championship but nah we've never beaten them in the league.
The games against them were some of our darker days.
I'm sure we lost 2-0 at home to them which caused Zola to resign.
Redknapp came in, kept us up and then we lost 2-1 away towards the start of the next season. Awful times.
I think that one under HR was when we all realised we’d signed a bunch of absolute shysters.
Good job it didn’t financially cripple us for the next 7 years.
I detest Redknapp but even I think it's slightly unfair to pin it on him. I think it was more Dong couldn't negotiate contracts - which hit us hard when he negotiated new ones for Colin, Dean and Juke.
Sorry, I agree, wasn’t a specific Redknapp point. Just that specific game was when we clocked that we’d spent the money… poorly.
