Torquay United (2) Crewe Alexandra (2) - ITV

Uploaded by PopsiderGull on Jun 14, 2009
The 1986/87 season introduced automatic relegation into the Conference League. With the final game of the season to go, Torquay were second from bottom on 47 points, below them was Burnley on 46 points. Lincoln City had 48 points and seemed in least danger.
The final game was against Crewe Alexandra at Plainmoor. At half-time Crewe were leading 2-0 ! Two minutes into the second-half Torquay's centre-half, Jim McNichol, scores from a free kick. Despite an all-out attack, Torquay seem unable to get the equaliser - even hitting the crossbar.
Seven minutes from time a piece of football folklore is created. A Police dog by the name of Bryn believes that Jim McNichol is running to attack his handler, and sinks his teeth into the centre-half's thigh. It was from the resultant four minutes of injury time that Paul Dobson scored possibly the most important goal in the clubs history, and kept them in the Football League. As history shows it was unfortunate Lincoln City that was sent into the Conference League.
