From 2-0 Down..

[Jim Hardie 527]

Wednesday played Lyon over two legs they lost the first leg 4-2 and won the second leg 5-2, the game against Barcelona that season at Hillsborough Wednesday won 3-2 and lost the next leg 2-0.

 

That's correct, the Barcelona result was 3-2.

Lyon scored first at Hillsborough so Wednesday were three down at that stage.

If my memory serves me wasn't we 4-2 down to manure when we beat them 5-4.

That's correct. Still the best game I ever saw. It would have been a great game if the score had been 0-0.

2-0 down to the Blades not too long ago and got a draw.

Could have won that one if Rob Jones had got better connection on his late header.

In a similar vein....

 

I can remember the 4-4 draw with Chelsea back in 1985..Wednesday were 3-0 up at HT...only for Chelsea to score 4 in the second half...it took a Mel Sterland penalty in the last minute to bring it level..

Yes I remember that one I think Sterland also won the penalty after a "foul" by Doug Rougvie. Paul Cannoville came on as a sub for Chelsea and had the game of his life.

That,s the one...and after all that Wednesday lost the replay 2-1..

The 4-4 draw was also a replay they drew 1-1 before that.

I don't think so, I think that was the first game and we lost the replay as Sheridan says.

Wednesday's league Cup results from that season confirm I am correct.
