Play Off Semi Final 2nd Leg v MK Dons
I was in a private box immediately behind the directors, Dean Hoyle was feeling the stress of it all and just could not sit down. One minute he was in his seat and then next he was standing at the back of the director's box at the top of the stairs.
Each time he rose out of his seat he would look in my direction and be huffing and puffing with the stress of it all.
He was standing when Jordon scored, I jumped out of my seat and was at the front of the barrier when Dean shot round the corner, ran up the few steps and leaped at me. We were jumping up and down hugging each other like a couple of kids. Had the moment been captured on camera it would have been priceless.
What a moment to share with a man who has done so much to restore the pride and passion of being a Town fan.
