Liverpool 1974? Quite a good club then? but on this day (Jan 5th) in an FA Cup Third Round tie, "Pool" had a scare, when Doncaster Rovers from the Football League Third Division, held "Pool" to a 2-2 draw. Over 22,000 watched Kevin Keegan score both Pool's goals against his home town team and Donny nearly score a winner in the final minutes when they hit to woodwork and then lost the replay at theirs. Liverpool needless to say, won the replay 2-0 and continued their success in the Cup winning the Final.
Liverpool Starting lineup:
Kevin Keegan resigned from his managership at Newcastle on this day in 1997. He had been lured back to Newcastle from the Spanish golf courses in 1992 to help the Magpies save themselves from relegation to the Third Division. Kevin got the club promotion and nearly took the club to the brink of the Premier League title in 1995/6, then decided to leave St James' Park, not for the first time!
First meeting of two clubs:11 Mar 1905 Division 2: Doncaster Rovers v Liverpool Score: 1-4.
