Keith Andrews was outstanding in that game. Don’t think he ever got close to that standard for us ever again.

Never recovered from the red card at Palace right at the end of the season (which was stupid). Meant he was banned for the start of the next season so he wasn't in the team, then we signed Cameron and Rae on top of that, so he was immediately down the pecking order and only getting scraps here and there.

Then the following season - when we now had Ince as well - broke his leg at Southampton.

Didn't look after himself well in those days either (I've mentioned before the time I saw him in a shite Irish pub, at 3pm on a Saturday when we were playing away...moaning about not getting a chance) so no game time and poor habits meant when he did play, he wasn't anything like fit enough, and he wasn't talented enough to get away with that.

He and Proudlock were good in 2000/01 and both messed it up (the latter more so).

I’d forgotten about the sending off. He definitely regressed the following season and lost the energy he had in the Albion game. I remember leaving the ground thinking we’d got a Championship Roy Keane!

He looks to be in better shape now than his early 20s!

His hair is wonderful comparatively too....
