 I see that Radi Antic has passed away aged 71 today- ex Luton player- who scored that goal at Maine Road four minutes from time in 1993 against Man City which kept Luton up- and which led to David PLEATS unforgettable celebration when he ran on the pitch at the end with that white/beige suit on. I know that there are a few Luton fans on this site, who will remember that day. Bob

Sorry late replying, just seen. It's not just the Luton fans who remember Bob, it's us Man City fans too! I was there in the Kippax Stand down the other end from where Antic scored, standing with a uni mate of mine from Milton Keynes who was a Luton fan and he had to stay very quiet!! Followed by David "Skippy" Pleat in his beige suit prancing over the Maine Road turf from the other side of the ground. How fortunes have changed! It was 1983 not 93 though. Not much relevance to bizjets I guess, except I'm now an ATCO at EGGD and it's an excuse to mention how much I appreciate the continual hard graft that goes into this EGLF website and as a biz spotter find it very useful on my occasional trips to Eelmoor and the overflights at Bristol. Keep it up!

Keep it up! Sorry just noticed your reply- of course it was 1983- one of the great sporting moments especially in Football- have been to away games with mates of mine who are non- Evertonian- and have gone in the home end and like your friend, have had to keep quiet- but must have been hard to do, when he scored that goal. As you say how things have changed- City have gone on from strength to strength albeit- went down to the old third division- and Luton actually went out of the league, but have returned with a vengeance. Although the Championship seems a bit hard for them this season. Happy Days Bob |
