This day 1975 Terry Cooper recieves his marching orders

[Erimus74]

When the mighty Boro won away at Chelsea in the 1st divison, the last time we won at their place too

This was TC's 3rd Boro game since his transfer & 1st away game, our 4th win on the bounce, though the 1st three had been at home & 1st goal we conceded for exactly one month & only our 2nd goal we'd conceded that calander year, we were so tight at the back

Boro won the game 2-1 with John Craggs scoring the opening goal with his 1st top flight goal & Alan Willey with his 3rd of the season, his 1st away goal

I went to this. Thought we'd had it when Cooper was sent off. He later got it chalked off on appeal.

On this day, Alan Willey scored his 1st away goal, two seasons later, on this day, he scored his final Boro goal in a 2-2 home draw with Birmingham City

Did he? I wasnt aware of it, I know he played the following gameaway to Man City, which I went on Beggs bus, minus a window on the way home, he then missed the Burnley home game but could have been injured
