In April 1994, in an evening match at a packed Filbert Street and with both clubs going for promotion, Iwan scored a remarkable 12-minute triple against the Rams in a 3-3 draw.

Can he play up front now?

Still one of our best songs. Glad it still gets an airing.

Same. Loved most of the team at that time. Not all the most talented but gave their best.

That debut against Wolves was impressive, the power he got on that header, went in like a bullet.

I believe he was our record signing for 300K in 1993.  How times have changed.

 

I remember the famous smile, the chest bump celebration and I believe he was a Welshman and wore a hat.

I just love the way it goes up a notch on 'AND WHEN WE PLAY THE DERBY!!' 

 

He was a little before my time but I get the impression I'd have loved his style.
