HEREFORD 2 NEWCASTLE 1
We begin with perhaps the most famous of them all. Southern League side Hereford had earned an astonishing 2-2 draw at St James' Park in February 1972, forcing the game to a replay. Although they were given little chance of emulating that feat in the reverse fixture.
In a game blighted by bad weather, it looked as though things were following the form book when Newcastle took the lead.
But Hereford had other ideas and after growing stronger as the match progressed, Ronnie Radford equalised with a 40-yard thunderbolt to take the game into extra time. Then Ricky George hit the winner.
