League Cup 33 years ago today .....

What a brilliant day that was, followed by a great night in the Quarry Gate. Don’t know how the local businesses coped with all those staff shortages the next day ?
 
My Grandad (RIP) was born a QPR fan in Shepherds Bush. But he came to live in Oxford in his twenties when he got a job at Pressed Steel. I remember him being torn about who he wanted to win as he supported the U's from non-league! In the end being the jovial character he was he said he couldn't lose as one of the two clubs he loved so much would win. I saw him the day after and he was pleased as punch!!
 
I remember the day very well but can I remember the after match celebration in Oxford? Can I heck
