Happy St Angell’s day

WITH all the doom and gloom around Roots Hall at the moment, it’s time we enjoyed a great moment from our past.
18 years ago this night, Stan Collymore burst down the left and put in a low cross for Brett Angell to slam the ball into the roof of the west ham net.
The game finished 1-0 and sparked a run of form that would see Blues escape from relegation on the last day of the campaign with a 2-1 win over Luton Town.
The crowd at Roots Hall that night was 12,813, a significant increase on two weeks earlier when 3,840 had seen us draw 3-3 with Millwall.
