First time I went to Highbury. Been to see Arsenal many times since but this was epic. Sunderland scoring at the Clock End with probably our only attack of the game. Colin West the hero. Mark Prudhoe (later to be Sunderland's goalkeeping coach) played as keeper and saved everything, but rarely with his hands and how we didn't lose by a shed load, I don't know. Happy days!
